Document Summary

The kingdom protista represents an unusual mix of organisms. There is a clear difference between protista and prokaryotes but not that big of a cutoff from the eukaryotes. The organisms found in this kingdom are all eukaryotes and most are single-celled for most of their life-cycle. Since the organisms of the kingdom protista are eukaryotic cells, they are clearly different from the bacteria and archaea. The differences between the protists and the rest of the eukaryotes are not quite as clear. They arose with a lot of different evolutionary patterns which is why on the evolution tree they have three limbs while the rest of the eukaryotes have one limb. Past classifications of the protists organized them into three general groups based on nutritional methods: break down molecules outside the cellular body to break down for nutrients. Non-classified terms used to describe protists in general.

18. When considering the evolutionary tree of life and the three domains of life, which statement best describes what likely happened over the course of millions of years of evolution? Choose one:

A. Bacterial and eukaryotic cells are more closely related to each other than to archaeans, as evidenced by the fact that bacteria and eukaryotes do not inhabit the most extreme environments.
B. Although their cell structures are very different, archaean and eukaryotic cells are more closely related to each other than to bacteria, as evidenced by the fact that Bacteria was the first domain to split from the shared ancestor of Archaea and Eukarya.

C. Bacteria and archaeans are more closely related to each other than to eukaryotes, as evidenced by their cell structures. Bacteria and archaeans are prokaryotic, while all eukaryotic cells contain mitochondria and other membrane-bound organelles.
D. The three domains of life are equally divergent from one another, so no two domains are more closely related to each other. This is supported by the evolutionary tree of life because three branches extend from one node millions of years ago.
