eukarya

The specialness of eukarya is that they were a unification of two highly divergent branches of the phylogenetic tree.

Yet the shikimate pathway is present in bacteria, archaea, and eukarya, and all of them are harmed by Glyphosate.

Neither bacteria or corn are animals, and bacteria isn't even part of the Eukarya domain, it's something else entirely.

For 'higher eukarya' the big problem is you can still do the long homology ends, but a competing process is random insertion.

Not to mention that eukarya are generally considered to have branched off of archae...

> All life on Earth is classified within three domains — bacteria, archaea and eukarya — with eukarya containing all multicellular organisms Single cell eukaryotes also exist.

Scientists choose to argue about things like did Eukarya evolving from Archaea?

> with eukarya containing all multicellular organisms within the four kingdoms of fungi, animals, plants and protists.

The most common sterols of Eukarya possess a cholesteroid, ergosteroid, or stigmasteroid skeleton with 27, 28, or 29 carbon atoms, respectively.

Second, correct, everything understood as a multicellular organism -- as distinct from colonies of unicellular organisms -- is composed of cells with nuclei, classified in eukarya in the three-domain model.

If we're going with eukarya writ large, it's even less.

The naming hierarchies of taxonomy are somewhat justified within eukarya because we have family trees, but when you only have one parent and get your genetic diversity via horizontal gene transfer with your peers, taxonomy is just the words of silly humans.

Yes, "with eukarya containing all multicellular organisms" does not mean "all eukarya are multicellular organisms" it means "multicellular organisms are a subset of eukarya".

You can still find all 3 domains of life on earth (Archaea, Eukarya, Bacteria).

The three-domain system divides life in Archaea, Bacteria, and Eukarya.

> Fungi and Animalia split from Eukarya.
