E. contains specified amounts of five to ten known chemical components.

Answer 1

Correct Answer is (D)

Explanation:

    (D) distinguishes among microorganisms based on some enzymatic or metabolic ability.

• The prokaryotic microorganisms incorporate the microscopic organisms and the archaea (or the eubacteria and archae bacteria, by more seasoned phrasing).
• The eukaryotic microorganisms incorporate the protists (protozoa), the parasites and in any event the unicellular  algae.  
• Mycoplasma genitalium, a parasitic bacterium which lives in the primate bladder, squander removal organs, genital, and respiratory tracts, is believed to be the littlest known life form fit for free development and multiplication.  
• Microscopic organisms that expect oxygen to develop are called obligate aerobic bacteria
