There are 2 main domains in the classification system. There is Eukarya and Prokarya. Eukarya has Eukaryotic organisms meaning that the cells have a nucleus and Prokary has Prokaryotic organisms meaning the cells don't have a nucleus. These a very basic cells that can live on there own with barely anything.

Who divised the concept of the three domains used today?
Carl Woese is credited with devising the concept of the three domains of life - Bacteria, Archaea, and Eukarya. This classification system is based on genetic and biochemical differences among organisms.
In the modern classification system the three domains are?
1. Archaea 2. Eubacteria 3. Eukarya
Are archaea eukaryotes or prokaryotes?
Archaea and Eukaryote are two different domains from the three domains of life classification. And Prokaryotes belong to two domains: the bacteria and the archaea.
What is the similarities between kingdoms and domains?
They are both broad groups of classification in taxonomy.
Why is there three domains instead of two?
The three domains - Bacteria, Archaea, and Eukarya - reflect the diversity of life on Earth. Each domain represents a distinct evolutionary lineage, with unique characteristics and genetic differences. This classification system helps biologists understand the evolutionary relationships among different organisms.
