Answer:

Bergey’s Manual of Systematic Bacteriology is a manual which includes characteristics of different types of prokaryotic organisms such as bacteria. this manual is used to identify different types of prokaryotic organisms.

Step-by-step explanation:

Prokaryotic organisms are those which have no true nucleus or in other words membrane is absent around the nucleus. Organelles such as mitochondria, lysosomes, ribosomes, vacuole and endoplasmic reticulum are also absent. If these characteristics are present in an organism so we can say that it is a prokaryotic organism.

Answer:

Nucleic Acid Amplification Test

Step-by-step explanation:

A Nucleic Acid Amplification Test or NAATs is a test that is performed to check the smaller amount of DNA that may be in viruses and bacteria.

After this check the sequenced DNA can be compared to known sequences of these specific organisms to discover if they are new organisms or just a variation of an existing one.
