There are three major, distinct groups of organisms: bacteria, archaea, and eukaryotes. however, until recently bacteria and archaea were considered much more closely related than we know they are today. what is one of the most important ways scientists determined the evolutionary distinctiveness of these three groups? choose the correct answer from the following choices, and then select the submit answer button. answer choices
a) they compared cell structure in all three groups.
b) they compared equivalent dna sequences in all three groups.
c) they compared the size of organisms in all three groups.
d) they compared the structure of dna molecules in all three groups.
e) they compared the organelle function in all three groups.

Option B

Explanation:

The Eukaryotes, Bacteria and Archaea were firstly thought to be belonging to same kingdom as their characters were very much similar.

Until their DNA sequence were used as a basis of their distinction they were put into similar criteria. Due to advanced research their DNA sequence were analyzed and then it was found that the three organism are different.

So, the correct answer is option B

1. the energy lost to disorder metabolism     -entropy

2. related to or possessing motion potential     -kinetic

3. all of the chemical reactions in an organism required for maintenance of the processes of life entropy     -metabolism

4. possible; ability to go into action or perform work kinetic     -potential

5. the study of energy and its transformations thermodynamics     -thermodynamics
