Organisms of which two domains are classified as prokaryotes?
ABacteria and Protista
BBacteria and Archaea
CArchaea and Fungi

Answer & Solution
Correct answer: B. Bacteria and Archaea
1. Prokaryotes are predominantly single-celled organisms drawn from just two domains.
2. Those two domains are Bacteria and Archaea.
3. Cells of animals, plants, fungi and protists are all eukaryotes, so fungi and protists cannot appear in the answer.
4. The prokaryotic domains are Bacteria and Archaea.
