Verified step by step guidance
1
Understand the three domains of life: Archaea, Bacteria, and Eukarya. These domains classify all living organisms based on cellular structure and genetics.
Recall that fungi are eukaryotic organisms, meaning their cells have a true nucleus and membrane-bound organelles.
Recognize that Domain Archaea and Domain Bacteria consist of prokaryotic organisms, which lack a true nucleus.
Note that viruses are not classified within any domain because they are not considered living cells.
Conclude that since fungi have eukaryotic cell structure, they belong to Domain Eukarya.
