How do you write binomial nomenclature

Genus + species

What is binomial nomenclature

A two-part naming system created by Carolus Linnaeus to give every species a universal, unique name

Differences between archaea and bacteria domains

Bacteria domain has peptidoglycan while archaea domain doesn’t

What is peptidoglycan

A strong polymer that is made of sugars and amino acids that forms a cell wall

Cell structure of eubacteria

cell walls with peptidoglycan

Cell structure of archaebacteria

cell walls without peptidoglycan

Cell structure of protista

cell walls of cellulose or chloroplasts

Cell structure of fungi

cell walls of chitin

Cell structure of plantae

cell walls of cellulose and chloroplasts

Cell structure of animalia

no cell walls or chloroplasts
