You decide that the introduction should also discuss the extremophiles that are referred to as the archaea. These single-cell or

ganisms are considered "extremophiles" due to their ability to survive and reproduce in environmental conditions that would be hostile for most living organisms. Archaea species have been isolated from highly acidic sulfur springs, ocean floor thermal vents with temperatures that exceed boiling, and subarctic ice well below freezing. While still considered to be prokaryotic, the archaea have numerous differences that place them apart from the bacteria. Choose the characteristics that separate the archaea from other prokaryotic cells. Select all that apply. View Available Hint(s) Select all that apply. Archaea lack true peptidoglycan in their cell walls. The morphology of the cell is rigid and is geometric in shape, similar to a sphere or cylinder. The cytoplasmic membrane lipids of archaea have branched or ringform hydrocarbon chains. All currently identified and characterized archaea have been linked as the causative agent to an animal or human disease.

The correct answers are:  Archaea lack true peptidoglycan in their cell walls; The cytoplasmic membrane lipids of archaea have branched or ringform hydrocarbon chains.

The cell wall of all bacteria contains peptidoglycan. Archaeal cell walls do not contain this compound, though some species contain a similar one.

The Bacteria have membranes composed of unbranched fatty acid chains attached to glycerol by ester linkages. The Archaea have membranes composed of branched hydrocarbon chains attached to glycerol by ether linkages.

Describe volcanic-atmosphere hypothesis
sladkih [1.3K]
It is assumed that the context of the hypothesis request is related to the origin of life, OoL, Volcanoes emit gases, dust and minerals at elevated temperatures that produce movement and chemical interaction of minerals, water, gases and compounds emitted. These minerals, water, and gas are considered important to produce the biochemical assembly of compounds into molecules for the OoL.The volcanic thermal energy release is a key ingredient in stimulating chemical reactions as well as dissipating the chemicals and gases, some of which was considered to have deposited in small ponds, based on Darwinian mythology in amounts and concentrations conducive to biochemical assembly capable of OoL production..

In the atmosphere volcanic emissions have been considered possibly viable to support the Oparin-Haldane theory, which proposed the emission of biochemically rich gases that utilized volcanic, solar and atmospheric energy sources to precipitate biochemical molecules that led to a prebiotic soup of compounds that eventually led to the OoL.

Natural selection in the cichlids fish species of Lake Victoria occurred via
Ksju [112]

Where's the evolution?

The physics of light affects not just how blue water looks to us, but how the animals living in the world's oceans, lakes, and rivers are able to find food and each other — and this, in turn, can impact their evolution. Natural selection favors traits that perform well in local environmental conditions. Many fish species, for example, have evolved vision that is specifically tuned to see well in the sort of light available where they live. But even beyond simple adaptation, the physics of light can lead to speciation. In fact, biologists recently demonstrated that the light penetrating to different depths of Africa's Lake Victoria seems to have played a role in promoting a massive evolutionary radiation. More than 500 species of often brightly colored cichlid fish have evolved there in just a few hundred thousand years!
