Who proposed three domain classification? What are the features of this classification?

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

Three domain classification was proposed by Carl Woese. This system emphasizes the separation of prokaryotes into two domains, Bacteria and Arachaca, and all the eukaryotes are placed into the domain Eukarya.Archaea appears to have more in common with the Eukarya than the Bacteria. Archaea differ from bacteria in cell wall composition and differs from bacteria and eukaryotes in membrane composition and rRNA types.
