  1. The Eminent Domain

  2. Domain Archaea -1 cell prokaryote -Have different cell walls than bacteria -Lack peptidoglycan cell walls -Reproduce asexually -Live in extreme environments -Some eat by producing bacteriorhodopsin, which allows them to convert sunlight into ATP, which provides energy. Genus OxytrichaPediastrum Duplex

  3. Domain Bacteria -1 cell prokaryote -Reproduce by binary fission -Have peptidoglycan cell walls -Break down food products in people -Have been present for ¾ of Earth’s life Cyanobacteria Escherchia Coli

  4. Why are we important? -Without prokaryotes, you wouldn’t be able to digest -Helps with nitrogen fixation, without which life would be impossible. -Make nutrients for soil that allow things to grow. -Beginning of the food chain

  5. What happens if Earth becomes inhabitable? Prokaryotes like Archaea will still be on the ocean floor, still alive and thriving.
