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.

- Extinct Threatened 4-A comparison of DNA or protein sequences from different species can reveal evolutionary relationships. This assumption is based on the idea that the nucleotide or amino acid sequence of a particular gene or the protein it encodes, respectively, mutates at a similar rate in different individuals. However, remember that the rate of mutation alone does not determine how fast a DNA sequence will change. The effects of mutation on survival and reproductive success (natural selection), as well as the generation time of the organism, also play important roles in the overall rate of genetic change in a population. VOLENT Vulnerable (UCN 3.1 EX EW CR EN Why might a non-coding region of DNA be more reliable than a gene like Leptin for building phylogenies? (9)arrow_forwardIf most of the DNA in Bacteria and Archaea is coding DNA and much of the DNA in higher plants and animals is non-coding (does not code for proteins), does this fact make it reasonable that the single-celled Bacteria and Archaea have lower mutation rates per base-pair than do eukaryotes? Why or why not?arrow_forwardPlease ASAP. Thank you.arrow_forward
