To evaluate the statements regarding the relationship between you (a human) and the bacteria responsible for a Streptococcus throat infection, let’s analyze each option:
A. You and Streptococcus have nothing in common.
- This is incorrect. Humans and Streptococcus bacteria share some common biochemical and structural features, such as being made of organic molecules.
B. You both belong to the same domain.
- This is incorrect. Humans (and all animals) are classified under the domain Eukarya, while Streptococcus is a bacteria and belongs to the domain Bacteria. They are in different domains.
C. You both are made up of cells.
- This is correct. Both humans and Streptococcus are cellular organisms, although humans are multicellular (composed of many cells), and Streptococcus is unicellular (composed of a single cell).
D. You both have genetic material in your nucleus.
- This is incorrect. Humans, as eukaryotes, have their genetic material contained within a nucleus, while Streptococcus, as prokaryotes, have their genetic material located in the cytoplasm and do not have a nucleus.
Therefore, the correct answer is: C. You both are made up of cells.
