Solution
The correct option is B Bacteria and Archaebacteria The 16S ribosomes are the structures which are found in the prokaryotes. The phylogeny is the study of the relationship of the organism on the basis of evolutionary changes. The evidence proves that the Archaebacteria evolved before the bacteria which were placed in the group of Eubacteria. This proves that the Archaebacteria are more primitive than the bacterial species and the classification is done on the basis of the rRNA genes.
