The excerpt belоw is frоm а Quаntа article entitled Primitive Asgard Cells Shоw Life on the Brink of Complexitywritten in April 2023. It’s been edited for clarity and length. Read it, then answer the questions that follow. You’ll notice that some portions of the article are highlighted; the reason for this highlighting will be given in the questions that follow the article: An oak tree. The symbiotic fungus intertwined with its roots. A cardinal chirping from one of its branches. Our best clue yet to their shared ancestor might have arrived in electron microscope images that were unveiled in December. “Look!” said the microbiologist Christa Schleper, beaming as she held a printed, high-resolution image in front of her webcam at the University of Vienna. “Isn’t it beautiful?” The cells in the image were 500 nanometer-wide orbs surrounded by long tendrils. Her team had not only isolated and cultivated the organism for the first time but shown that its flailing filaments were made of actin, the protein that forms a skeletal scaffold in almost all eukaryotes. The organism, first published in Nature, is only the second representative of a group of microbes called Asgard archaea to be grown and studied in detail. Coaxing it to grow out of a tiny spoonful of seafloor sludge took six years, since it only grows in certain difficult-to-attain conditions. As difficult as they are to deal with, the Asgard archaea are now among the most coveted organisms in science. Years before the Asgard archaea were grown in a lab, microbial surveys  picked up hints of an unknown group of archaea with genetic material suspiciously close to those of eukaryotes in marine sediments around the world. One study showed that these mysterious microbes were thriving in seafloor muck scooped up near a hydrothermal vent in the Atlantic Ocean in 2008. Growing Asgard archaea in the lab required dealing with several challenges all at once. First, any small piece of seafloor mud contains hundreds of microbial species. To eliminate all the unwanted bacteria, you can add antibiotics. These kill bacteria, but not archaea. But these antibiotics might kill bacteria that help archaea survive. So it’s necessary to experiment with various antibiotics at different concentrations to find a something that will kill only the bacteria that do not interact with the archaea.  Question: Consider the part of the excerpt above that is highlighted in yellow. Based on what we learned in class about how eukaryotic cells were thought to evolve, is it surprising to you that Asgard archaea were found to contain actin? Why or why not?

Nоw cоnsider the pаrt оf the excerpt аbove thаt is highlighted in light blue. Based on what we learned in class, are you surprised to read in this article that Asgard archaea live near underwater hydrothermal vents? Would you more expect them to live in colder areas under water? Explain your answer.
