How do archaea and bacteria differ?​

Biology
1 answer:
Lunna [17]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

The archaea and the bacteria both are prokaryotes. However, the genetic makeup of the archaea is more similar to the eukaryotes. Moreover, they have differences, in their metabolic pathways, genes and the enzymes possessed by them.

Explanation:

The differences between Archaea and bacteria:

1. The cell wall of the bacteria consist of peptidoglycan, while the cell wall of the archaea consist of pseudo-peptidoglycan.

2. The bacteria are capable of spore formation, which can lie dormant for long periods of time until a suitable condition is found for their growth. The archaea are not known to form such spores.

3. The genes of the archaea are more similar to the eukaryotes than the bacteria.

4. The bacteria are found everywhere where the living conditions are suitable (soil, air, living beings, non-living things). the archaea are capable of surviving in extreme conditions (hot springs, salt brine).

5. The bacteria use the process of glycolysis and follows Kreb's cycle for glucose break-down. The archaea do not undergo glycolysis or Kreb's cycle.

The answer is; C

Plasmids are conferred through horizontal gene transfer in bacteria.  The ‘male’ bacteria develops a structure called pili that then attaches to the ‘female’ bacteria. It then transfers it’s replicated plasmid to the ‘female’ bacteria in a process called conjugation. This bacteria will hence have desirable traits that are coded for by the transferred genetic material ,such as antibiotic resistance, after a process called recombination.

A flood can wash away important abiotic factors such as soil and rocks that certain biotic factors need for survival.
Degger [83]

Flooding is the term used to characterize the process that occurs when the waters of a river overflow due to rain and occupy the area next to the river, called the river plain. It can have natural or anthropogenic causes and affect vulnerable populations more often.

<h3>What is Biotic and Abiotic?</h3>

The biotic components are all the living things that live in a certain place, while the abiotic components are all the physical, chemical and geological factors of the environment such as water, light, soil, humidity, temperature, nutrients etc.

With this information, we can conclude that A flood can wash away important abiotic factors, such as soil and rocks, that certain biotic factors need to survive, thus flooding affects the ecology of affected regions.
