Phylogenetk tree based on
nuclear DNA and protein comparisons
82
The construction of phylogenetic trees is a mapping out the proposed divisions and common ancestors of all living species. Traditionally, these trees
have been built using morphological data, such as appearance and embryology. Recently, it has been possible to construct these trees using molecular
data. Phylogenetic trees based on different types of information agree with each: that there is strong evidence of a real underlying common descent
This phylogenic tree is composed based on molecular data (TRNA). What statements can we infer are true about the organisms throughout the tree?
Because the tree is rooted all branches share a common ancestor
All organisms have some sort of cellular structure/organization
All Eukaryotes evolved from Bacteria
Since the organisms contain RNA they share the same DNA
If the organisms contain RNA the share the same four nitrogen bases

All Eukaryotes evolved from Bacteria is the right option.

Step-by-step explanation:

Bacteria is a unicellular prokaryotic cell with simple organelles. There are evidences that eukaryotic cells evolve from the endosymbiosis of bacteria. The mitochondria is an example of endosymbiosis which sheds light on evolution of eukaryotic cells from prokaryotes. Mitochondria is said to be a microbe that hosts a body and was in symbiotic relationship with it, over time it evolved as a separate entity because mitochondria has its own DNA.

From the theories of origin of life in which inorganic constituents gave rise to organic entity.

The theory of abiogenesis states that simple chemicals polymerized as DNA they replicated and eventually bacteria came into existence.

The mitochondria and chloroplast are the evidence of phylogenetic relation between bacteria and eukaryotes.
