Verified step by step guidance
1
Understand the classification of life domains: Bacteria, Archaea, and Eukarya.
Recall that organisms in the domain Bacteria are characterized as prokaryotes, meaning they lack a membrane-bound nucleus and other membrane-bound organelles.
Differentiate bacteria from viruses, which are not cells but infectious particles containing DNA or RNA.
Recognize that multicellular organisms with chloroplasts are typically plants or algae, which belong to the domain Eukarya.
Note that eukaryotic cells have complex organelles and a true nucleus, which is not a feature of bacteria.
