Explanation / Answer

Following illustrate the role of molecular biology in modern taxonomy:

Molecular biology has revealed that archae are more closely related to eukaryotes than prokaryotes.

Also, molecular biology changed the tree of life and grouped archae and eukaryotic cells more closely ; than prokaryotic cells.
