Answer:

the correct answer would be A - More information is needed because it could be a member of Bacteria or Archaea.

There are mainly three domains in biological classification namely; bacteria, archaea, and eukarya.

The members of archaea and bacteria are prokaryotic unicellular whereas the members of eukarya are eukaryotic organisms.

The members of archaea and bacteria mainly differ in the composition of cell membrane.

Thus, more information is needed for proper classification of the organism.
