The mouth grinds food and its salivary glands make an enzyme thats helps water break starch into glucose,goes down esophagus, stomach grinds, stomach acid activates an enzyme that breaks protein into amino acids, food moves into the small intestine, the pancreas makes the enzymes, liver makes bile, gull bladder stores bile, the common bile duct delivers enzymes and bile to the small intestine, in the small intestine the fat is separated by bile so that the enzyme can help water break fat into 3 fatty acids & glyceral, the enzymes help water break protein into amino acids, enzymes help water break starches into glucose, the building blocks are then absorbed into the walls of the small intestine, the undigested foods (cellulose) goes into the large intestine, the large intestine removes the water , and then the undigested stuff goes into the toilet lol

iVinArrow [24]

The question is incomplete as it does not have the options which are:

A) most likely a bacterium.

B) most likely a eukaryote.

C) most likely an archaeon.

D) either a bacterium or an archaeon

C) most likely an archaeon.

Answer:

The correct answer will be option-C

Explanation:

Archaea is a domain of micro-organism which is distinct from the prokaryotic bacteria and the eukaryotes.

The domain was separate from the bacteria on the basis that the micro-organism lack the peptidoglycan layer present in the bacteria and the difference in the RNA.

Since in the given question, the organism shows the characteristics of a bacteria-like coccoid, lack a nucleus but the lack of peptidoglycan layer help determine that the microbe belongs to the Araceae.

Thus, Option-C is the correct answer.
