Answer: Classification of organisms is done while considering many factors such as:
Cell type- whether the organism is prokaryotic or eukaryotic
Cell structure- This includes both the presence and composition of the cell wall
Body type- whether the organism is multicellular or unicellular
Mode of nutrition- the method through which the organism achieves its nutritional requirement, by consuming other organisms (heterotroph) or making its own food (autotroph)
Hope this helps (:
Answer:
(B) resemble structures formed by bacterial communities that are found today in some shallow marine bays.
Explanation:
Extant stromatolites represent real "living fossils" for they are decendents of ancient forms that are associated with one of the first living forms on earth. Particularly, stromatolites are real bacteria communities where the autotrophic organism of the community are represented by cyanobacteria, which live along with heterotrophic bacteria. This clearly indicates that fossilized stromatolites points to bacteria (prokaryotes) as the first living things on earth (dated with not less than 3.5 billion year old)
Nowadays, stromatolites with cyanobacteria allows to reconstruct and understand fossilized forms. These current structures live in shallow marines ambients (e.g. Australia) but also in continental salt flats (e.g. Argentina) where few others bacteria can survive to these extreme conditions (high light exposure and salt concentration).
