BOT 102 GENERAL CLASSIFICATION OF PLANTS Objective Question

Question

Which of the following is a primary characteristic of organisms classified under Archaea, as described in the document?
Options
A They are multicellular organisms.
B They are eukaryotes.
C They are single-celled and prokaryotic.
Correct Answer
D They primarily obtain food as heterotrophs.
Correct Answer

Option C is the correct answer.

Detailed Explanation

The document states that Archaea are 'Single-celled organisms (Unicellular)' and 'Prokaryotes'. Options A and B are incorrect as they are single-celled and prokaryotic. While they can be autotrophs (e.g., Methanogen bacteria), D is not a primary defining characteristic over C.

Hint

Think about the basic cell structure and number of cells for Archaea.
