Question 1

In humans, no genes are larger than 2 kb.

Accepted Answer

A) True 
 B)False

Question 2

Archaea (formerly known as archaebacteria) is one of the three major divisions of
living organisms; the other two are eubacteria and eukaryotes. Nanoarchaeum equitans is in the Archaea domain and has one of the smallest genomes known, about 0.5 Mb.
How can an organism complete its life cycle with so little genetic material?

Accepted Answer

Such organisms are usually par
