Chapter 1.2, Problem 5CYP
Summary Introduction
To analyse:
And compare all microbial groups by making a table based on the type of cells they have.
Introduction:
Microorganisms can be divided into distinct groups based on their characteristics and cell types. Prokaryotic cells lack a defined nucleus and other cell membrane bound organelles. In contrast, eukaryotic cells have a well-defined nucleus to hold the genetic material and other organelles to carry out specific functions. Viruses are a unique group of microorganisms as they are not considered to be a living cell. They basically comprise of genetic material wrapped in a coating of protein.

Given the groupings of microorganisms, please indicate within the prescribe column whether these characteristics belongs to the group. Indicate your answer by writing Y if a characteristic and N if a non-characteristic. If the characteristic is not true to all members of the group, then write NY
Perform an online search to explore more about bacterial diversity. Are there organisms that are classified as bacteria that lack some of the characteristic features?
If so, provide an argument for why these organisms should still be classified in the domain Bacteria.
