Answer the following question given this paragraph: Two of the three domainsBacteria and Archaeaare prokaryotic, meaning that they lack both a nucleus and true membrane-bound organelles. However, they are now considered, on the basis of membrane structure and rRNA, to be as different from each other as they are from the third domain, the Eukarya. Prokaryotes were the first inhabitants on Earth, perhaps appearing approximately 3.9 billion years ago. Today they are ubiquitousinhabiting the harshest environments on the planet, from boiling hot springs to permanently frozen environments in Antarctica, as well as more benign environments such as compost heaps, soils, ocean waters, and the guts of animals (including humans). The Eukarya include the familiar kingdoms of animals, plants, and fungi. They also include a diverse group of kingdoms formerly grouped together as protists. Q: Organisms that lack both a nucleus and membrane-bound organelles are known as what, in general? A:

Select from: --photosynthetic; --barren; --trophic; --prokaryotic;
The answer is:
prokaryotic
