A microorganism has been described to you as living in hot, acidic habitats in the waste piles of coal mines that regularly sustain a pH of 1 and a temperature of nearly 60°C (140°F). This organism has no membranous organelles and its cell wall lacks peptidoglycan.Which Domain do you immediately assume it is?

As the electron transport carriers shuttle electrons, they actively pump _____ into the outer membrane compartment setting up a concentration gradient.

A newly described unicellular organism was isolated from a salt mine. This organism has no membranous organelles and its cell wall lacks peptidoglycan. Attempts to culture it in a medium with less than 25% salt were unsuccessful, but it was able to grow well on 25% salt supplemented agar. This organism is most likely in the domain ___________.

The loss of electrons from a chemical substance which uses an electron donor:
