1. Species in the same genus are thought to be closely related.

2. Genus name is always capitalized.

E. A species descriptor is the second part of a scientific name.

on Earth

2. classified by shape, need for oxygen, and diseases caused

3. known for living in extreme environments

C. Domain Archaea includes prokaryotes in the kingdom Archaea.1. cell walls chemically

different from bacteria

2. differences discovered by studying RNA

D. Domain Eukarya includes all eukaryotes.
