The most accurate description of the tree of life from the options provided is:
**a. Bacteria and Archaea are most closely related than either is to eukaryotes because they are prokaryotes.**
This statement correctly reflects the current understanding of the three domains of life, which are Bacteria, Archaea, and Eukarya (eukaryotes). Bacteria and Archaea are both prokaryotic, which means they lack a nucleus and other membrane-bound organelles, while eukaryotes have these features. Therefore, Bacteria and Archaea are more closely related to each other than either is to eukaryotes.
