Summary Introduction
To determine:
The reason that, scientists in the 19th and early 20th centuries think that archaea were bacteria.
Introduction:
Most archaea have cells, which is similar with the bacteria. All archaea have cytoplasmic membranes but they differ structurally from that present in bacteria. The cytoplasmic membrane of archaea functions to control the export and import of substances using proteins just as the proteins used in the cytoplasmic membrane of bacteria.

Why are methanogens important?arrow_forwardWhy did Carl Woese propose the domain Archaea? The domain Bacteria already had too many organisms in its classification. The methanogens were discovered to be a complex organism, between prokaryotic bacteria and eukaryotes, thus it needed its own domain. He discovered that methanogens were too large to be classified as bacteria, but too small to be classified as Eukarya. In analyzing the rRNA of methanogens, he discovered that it was completely distinct from any other bacterial RRNA that had been studied. The DNA of methanogens was discovered to use different nucleotides than those of organisms in Eukarya or Bacteria.arrow_forward
