A Researcher Is Comparing the Sequences of Genes Encoding Cell

question 95

Multiple Choice

A researcher is comparing the sequences of genes encoding cell wall proteins in archaeons with those coding cell wall proteins in bacteria. How similar do you expect these sequences will be?

• A)These sequences will be similar, as both archaeons and bacteria have cell walls composed of peptidoglycan variants.
• B)These sequences will be dissimilar, as archaeons have chitin-based cell walls and bacteria primarily have peptidoglycan-based cell walls.
• C)These sequences will be dissimilar, as archaeon cell walls are not composed of peptidoglycan.
• D)These sequences will be similar, as bacteria and archaeons belong to the same prokaryotic domain.
