a. The genus to which Staphylococcus aureus belongs is Staphylococcus.<br /><br />b. The kingdom to which Staphylococcus aureus belongs is Bacteria.<br /><br />c. Two ways in which the structure of Staphylococcus aureus differs from the structure of a plant cell are:<br />1. Staphylococcus aureus is a prokaryotic organism, meaning it lacks a true nucleus and membrane-bound organelles, while plant cells are eukaryotic and have a true nucleus and membrane-bound organelles.<br />2. Staphylococcus aureus has a cell wall composed of peptidoglycan, while plant cells have a cell wall composed of cellulose.<br /><br />a. The structure labelled A in Figure 1.20 is the cell wall.<br /><br />b. The cells in the structure labelled A differ from the cells in the animal kingdom because they have a cell wall, which is a characteristic feature of plant cells. Animal cells do not have a cell wall.<br /><br />c. The function of the structure labelled B, which contains spores, is to aid in the reproduction and dispersal of the fungus. Spores are reproductive units that can be produced by fungi to survive in unfavorable conditions and spread to new locations.
