Question

The use of fermentation to make products such as cheese and tofu is an example of biotechnology. The history of biotechnology begins with the discovery of the DNA double helix. T/F There are three domains of life on this planet, Bacteria, Archaea and Animalia. T/F Fungi are multicellular prokaryotes T/F Decomposers are heterotrophs T/F All eukaryotes are multicellular organisms. T/F Organisms that make their own food by photosynthesis are called producers. T/F Energy cannot be created nor destroyed, but it can be transferred. T/F As complexity increases so does potential (stored) energy. T/F A scientist's suggested explanation for a natural event is called a hypothesis. T/F

Explanation / Answer

This is now considered a part of industrial biotechnology.

Brewing industry gave birth to biotechnology.

The three domain are Bacteria, Archaea and Eukarya.

Fungi are eukaryotes.

Decomposers depend upon dead matters for food. They are thus heterotrophs.

Not all eukaryotes are multicellular. Unicellular eukaryotes include protozoans such as amoeba, paramecium and pathogens, such as plasmodium.
