Which of the following is true of BOTH bacteria and archaea? They never have introns in their genes. They have cell walls made of peptidoglycan All of these are true of both archaea and bacteria. They have 70S ribosomes They are known to cause disease in humans
Adi S.
The most significant difference between archaea and bacteria is the: lack of a nuclear envelope in archaea. absence of the 70S ribosomes in bacteria. presence of a single filament flagellum in bacteria. absence of peptidoglycans in the cell walls of archaea. presence of fatty acids in the plasma membranes of archaea.
Haricharan G.
All of the statements regarding archaea are true EXCEPT they are found as single cells. they contain peptidoglycan as part of their cell walls. they often grow in extreme environments. they contain cell walls.
