Answer from: Thejollyhellhound20

Explanation:

Studies has proven that a reasonable percentage of endangered/exctinct species have/had low genetic variation. The reason to this is because the species genes couldn't adapt to the changes that occurred, which means that they couldn't keep up with their environment and eventually became "non-adapted".

Conclusion:

If a species has a high genetic variation, it will be able to adapt easily to new conditions, which means that it has lower chances of going exctinct as opposed to those with lowe genetic variation.

Important note:

If your question was: "Is a species more or less likely to go extinct if it suffers a lot of genetic variations?", then, the answer would be that hey're more likely to go extinct, since their genes will change so much that new species might originate (mutation) and the previous ones will not exist anymore. But still, I recommend you stick with the first answer unless it doesn't match your question.

Hope it helped,

Answer from: Quest

there are mainly three domains in biological classification namely; archaea, bacteria, and eukarya.

archaea includes all the prokaryotic cells which are characterized by their lipid membranes. they have branched hydrocarbon which is attached to glycerol through an ether linkage.

bacteria includes all the prokaryotic cells, the cell membrane of which are made up of the unbranched fatty acid chain. in addition, they are attached to glycerol through an ester bond.

eukarya includes all the eukaryotic cells, that is, the cells contain a nucleus and other membrane-bound cell organelles.

they can be autotrophic as well as heterotrophic, unicellular as well as multicellular

they include kingdoms like protista, plantae, animalia, fungi et cetera.
