Textbook Question
Chapter 28.3, Problem 2CC
WHAT IF? Ø Would you expect the plastid DNA of photosynthetic dinoflagellates, diatoms, and golden algae to be more similar to the nuclear DNA of plants (domain Eukarya) or to the chromosomal DNA of cyanobacteria (domain Bacteria)? Explain.

Classifiation of Llfe
A new organism was discovered in a deep sea vent at the bottom of the
ocean. The researchers collected the sample and made careful
observations of it. The picture at right shows a microscopic image
captured at 1000X its actual size.
Below are some other observations made:
• When DNA was isolated from the cell, it was mixed with an equal
portion of histone proteins
• There are no visible organelles present inside the cell
• The specimen seem to die in the presence of oxygen
• Able to live in conditions that mimic deep sea vents without any
external food source provided
Based on these observations, determine each of the following and
provide a clear rationale.
A) To which domain would you assign this organism? Why?
B) Propose a hypothesis of how they obtain nutrients. Are these most
likely autotrophs or heterotrophs? Provide a rationale.
