PATHOLOGY

Detailed explanation-1: -Bacterial and fungal cells both contain cell walls that are similar to those found in plants. Both types of organisms are also heterotrophs and digest organic carbon to produce the energy they require.

Detailed explanation-2: -With a few exceptions (some prokaryotes, mitochondria, chloroplasts), the genetic code is universal – it’s the same in all organisms from viruses and bacteria to humans. The table of the Standard Universal Genetic Code on the next page shows the RNA version of triplet codons and their corresponding amino acids.

Detailed explanation-3: -Fungi and humans are both eukaryotes. Bacteria and viruses are not. Eukaryotes have the genetic material in each cell in a nucleus in the cell.

Detailed explanation-4: -Living organisms include bacteria, fungi, plants, and animals. What is one thing that all living things have in common? They all result from replication of pre-existing cells. Different types of cells can have certain organelles and structures in common.
