Please help Based on the concept of phylogeny, an organism that was ancestral to both the Bacteria and Eukaryota domains would exhibit which of the following characteristics? It would have mitochondria and other membrane-bound organelles. It would have DNA. It would have a nucleus. It would have cell walls as well as cell membranes.
What do you say ?
I would choose option 2: It would have DNA Because ,Bacteria and eukaryotes both have DNA.. Bacteria is prokaryote: Nucleus is not organised Eukaryotes:Organised nucleus.
mitochondria is considered to have evolved from bacteria. bacteria has no nucleus, no membrane bound organelles. Circular DNA is embeded in the cytoplasm. eukaryotic cells have a defined nucleus and may or may not have a cell wall. BUT BOTH HAVE DNA.
