What conclusion about the bacteria domain could be made from the phylogenetic tree below?

a. bacteria and eukarya are more similar than archaea and eukarya.
b. plants and animals evolved from the bacteria domain.
c. eukarya and bacteria developed on the same evolutionary line.
d. eukarya has similar evolutionary traits to archaea.

The correct answer is -

D. Eukarya has similar evolutionary traits to archaea.

A phylogenetic tree (also known as evolutionary tree) is a diagrammatic representation (in the form of branch diagram) showing the evolutionary relationships among various organisms. It is constructed on the basis of similarities or differences in the genetic or physical characteristics of various species.

In the given phylogenetic tree, archaea domain shows more similarities to the domain eukarya as it has descended after the domain bacteria.

Thus, option D) is the right answer.

as the gila monster consumes the eggs or young of the desert cottontail and gambel's quail, thus its main food supply is only accessible for a restricted time duration every year. however, for this, the gila monsters exhibit three adaptations, which elevate their survival rate in the desert condition.  

first, is that they possess huge bodies, and can consume greater concentrations of food during a small period. secondly, they require to feed infrequently as they can accumulate fat in their tails. ultimately, their rate of metabolism is very low, so that they can burn their reservoirs of fat gradually.
