Although much of this picture has been sustained by more recent research, it seems fundamentally wrong in one respect. Among the bacteria, there are organisms that are significantly different both from the cells of eukaryotes and from the true bacteria, and it now appears that there are three stems in the tree of life. New techniques for determining the molecular sequence of the RNA of organisms have produced evolutionary information about the degree to which organisms are related, the time since they diverged from a common ancestor, and the reconstruction of ancestral versions of genes. These techniques have strongly suggested that although the true bacteria indeed form a large coherent group, certain other bacteria, the archaebacteria,which are also prokaryotes and which resemble true bacteria, represent a distinct evolutionary branch that far antedates the common ancestor of all true bacteria.
5. If the “new techniques” mentioned in line 31 were applied in studies of biological classifications other than bacteria, which of the following is most likely? (A) Some of those classifications will have to be reevaluated. (B) Many species of bacteria will be reclassified. (C) It will be determined that there are four main categories of living things rather than three. (D) It will be found that true bacteria are much older than eukaryotes.(A) (E) It will be found that there is a common ancestor of the eukaryotes, archaebacteria, and true bacteria. A和B都有相关bacteria大类需要调整导致2分法变3分法的意思。我觉得B明显更具体直接的靠近原文,比标准答案A好。请NN解。
