The figure shows a diagram of a typical rod-shaped bacterium. The cell body of the bacterium is represented by an elongated oval shape, like a pill capsule. Attached to one end of the cell body is a long, tail-like structure. Covering the outer surface of the cell body are small, spike-like structures. The cell body is shown as being enclosed by three layers, a thick outer layer, a thin middle layer, and a thin inner layer. In some places, the inner layer is shown projecting through the middle and outer layers to reach the exterior of the cell body. The interior of the cell body is a single chamber that contains a large, ribbon-like structure twisted around itself, a much smaller circular, ribbon-like structure, and many dot-like structures scattered throughout the chamber. The diagram above represents a typical rod-shaped bacterium. Which of the following best describes a feature shown in the diagram that is unique to archaea and bacteria? The organism is surrounded by a cell wall. The organism is surrounded by a cell wall. A The organism contains ribosomes. The organism contains ribosomes. B The organism does not have a nuclear membrane surrounding its genetic material. The organism does not have a nuclear membrane surrounding its genetic material. C

Answer:

There is no diagram attached to this question, however, it can be answered based on general understanding of the topic. The answer is:

The organism does not have a nuclear membrane surrounding its genetic material.

Explanation:

Living organisms are classified into a large group called DOMAIN, in which the basis of this classification is the possession or not of a membrane-bound nucleus. According to this question, the unique feature of archaea and bacteria is been enquired.

One feature that is unique to them is that "THEY LACK A MEMBRANE-BOUND NUCLEUS THAT HOUSES THEIR GENETIC MATERIAL". Hence, Archaea and Bacteria are both prokaryotes. Their genetic material is found naked in a region in the cytoplasm called NUCLEOID.

The figure is missing. However, the feature that is unique to archaea and bacteria is B. The organism does not have a nuclear membrane surrounding its genetic material.

Archaea and bacteria are both Procaryotes, in other words:

  • The DNA is not enclosed by a membrane in a nucleus.
  • The DNA is in the cytoplasm in an area called the nucleoid.
  • They are simple structures in comparison with Eukaryotes.

Even though they are in different domains since they do not share other characteristics, both lack a nucleus. In other words, they do not have a nuclear membrane surrounding the genetic material.
