      • In biology, a domain refers to the largest of all groups in the classification of life. There are currently 3 agreed groups at this level, the Archaea domain, Bacteria domain, and Eukarya domain. Each domain contains a collection of organisms with similar properties and evolutionary histories, as scientists have organized them.

  4. Mar 28, 2024 · Definition of Domain. In biology, a domain is the highest taxonomic rank used to categorize and group organisms based on shared characteristics and evolutionary history.

    • Domains. All life on Earth can be characterised into three Domains: Domain Bacteria: this domain comprises of unicellular prokaryotic bacteria. Domain Archaea: this domain comprises of unicellular prokaryotic organisms that are similar to bacteria but are in some ways more related to eukaryotes.
    • Kingdoms. Each Domain can be broken down into different Kingdoms. In Domain Eukarya, there are four major Kingdoms: Kingdom Prokaryotae: is made up of the various prokaryotes, which are unicellular.
    • Phyla. Each Kingdom can be broken down into different Phyla (sing. Phylum). The Kingdom Animalia consists of eleven distinct phyla. Class, Order, Family, Genus, Species.
  5. Domain names often derive from their prominent biological function in the protein they belong to (e.g., the calcium-binding domain of calmodulin), or from their discoverers (the PH domain!). The domain swapping that gives rise to gene families and superfamilies are natural genetic events.

  7. In biological taxonomy, a domain (/ dəˈmeɪn / or / doʊˈmeɪn /) (Latin: regio[1]), also dominion, [2] superkingdom, realm, or empire, is the highest taxonomic rank of all organisms taken together. It was introduced in the three-domain system of taxonomy devised by Carl Woese, Otto Kandler and Mark Wheelis in 1990. [1]
