Classifiation of Llfe
A new organism was discovered in a deep sea vent at the bottom of the
ocean. The researchers collected the sample and made careful
observations of it. The picture at right shows a microscopic image
captured at 1000X its actual size.
Below are some other observations made:
• When DNA was isolated from the cell, it was mixed with an equal
portion of histone proteins
• There are no visible organelles present inside the cell
• The specimen seem to die in the presence of oxygen
• Able to live in conditions that mimic deep sea vents without any
external food source provided
Based on these observations, determine each of the following and
provide a clear rationale.
A) To which domain would you assign this organism? Why?
B) Propose a hypothesis of how they obtain nutrients. Are these most
likely autotrophs or heterotrophs? Provide a rationale.
Please ASAP. Thanku
