1. Hailey Hesch started using dr#gs when she was 12 years old. She experimented with a lot of hardcore dr#gs like h3roin. A barrier that prevented her from stopping her addiction to the feeling she got when she took dr#gs. She said it made her feel amazing and really happy.

2. Jeremy B smoked a lot of w33d, drank, fought people, and chased girls around with his friends frequently. After a while, he started to use and experiment with other dr#gs like h3roin and d0pe. A barrier that prevented him from making healthier choices was due to curiosity.  

3. Kristina started her dr#g addiction with painkillers she took for an injury. She took them as they were prescribed at first, but after losing an opportunity to get a scholarship, she started abusing the painkillers. However, the painkillers were not enough, so she started using hardcore dr#gs to try to reach a "High". Nothing worked so then she kept abusing them more and more. She noticed that she was becoming very unstable, so she forced herself to get treatment. A barrier that prevented her from making better decisions was because she was blinded by grief and anger.

4. Adam was a 27 year old who was very athletic and smart. No one would have seen it coming, but he died due to a dr#g overdose. There was no one in his entire family that knew about his addiction, and when they found out, it was too late. A barrier that made him addicted is unknown, but some people suspect that it was because of friends or outside influences.

5. Cassie was a smart and successful woman who was very well-rounded. She went to church, donated to charities, and helped children with activities like tutoring and basketball. However, her parents started noticing unusual behavior from her. She shut herself off, had intense mood swings, and looked physically exhaused. Their suspicions were confirmed when she collapsed in the middle of the day. The doctor's diagnosis stated that she overdosed on m3th and that she was in a permanent coma. Later, the doctor broke the awful news to her parents, Cassie had irreversible brain damage and was a lost cause, so she died after being taken off of life support. A barrier that prevented her from making better choices was that no one took action when her behaviour drastically changed.

Which of the following traits do archaeans and bacteria share?
alex41 [277]

Answer:

The correct answer is: E) both B and C.

Explanation:

  • Bacteria and Archaea forms two distinct and different Domains in the Taxonomic classification system.
  • Nuclear envelope that surrounds and protects the genetic material by forming the Nucleus is absent in both Archaea and Bacteria. Both of them possess a region called the Nucleoid where their genetic material is located.
  • Plasma membrane that surrounds the cell and maintains integrity of the cell structure is present in both Bacteria and Archaea. Although the composition of lipid in the plasma membrane is different in each.
  • However, they vary in their cell wall composition. The cell wall of the bacteria is rich in a compound called peptidoglycan while the cell wall of archaea lacks peptidoglycan and is rich in polysaccharides and glycoproteins.
