ScienceForDummies - Week 5
Hello! Today's ScienceForDummies week 5 will be a bit short because of some time restraint. The poll winner is: Nobody! Everyone got the same amount: 1-1-1. Thus, I chose the topic about Bacteria, Archaea, and Eukaryota.
To put it simply, all living things can be classified into three supreme seperate sections: Bacteria, Archaea, and Eukaryota. What are the differences? Bacteria and Archaea are similar but their cell walls are different (they are both single celled organisms). Bacterial cell walls are "peptidoglycan", but Archaean walls ade not. Peptidoglycanism means it consists od sugars and amino acids, forming a mesh-like layer,
Both Bacteria and Archaea are procaryotes, meaning they are single celled. Another difference between the Bacteria and Archaea classes are that Archaea, at least to our knowledge, cannot cause any disease to us, because they cannot create toxicity. Bacteriums, infamously do cause disease.
Eukaryotes, the third class includes organisms with cells with a nucleus, which is basically their skin. Eukaryotes include multi-celled organisms. Eukaryotes include: Animals, Plants, Fungi, Humanity, Protists, etc.
And that is the explanation! The poll for next week's link:
