A) Bacteria
B) Viruses
C) Archaea
D) Algae
A) Bacteria
B) Viruses
C) Archaea
D) Algae
Explanation
Eukaryotes refer to microorganisms that have an internal organization of cells, each separated from the other by a membrane and containing a nucleus. All animals, plants, Protista, and fungi are eukaryotes.
Therefore, the algae group of microbial agents is the correct answer.
Prokaryotes refer to microorganisms that have no organized, internal cellular structure, and lack a nucleus in the disorganized cellular structure that exists. Bacteria and archaea have cells without typical compartments and nuclei. Viruses have a complete lack of cellular arrangement, and are neither eukaryote nor prokaryote.
For these reasons, bacteria, virus, and archaea are incorrect answers.
