A) The last universal common ancestor of all extant species is one individual species.
B) The origin of the three domains appears as a polytomy.
C) Archaean genomes should not contain genes that originated in bacteria, and vice versa.
D) Eukaryotes are more closely related to archaeans than to bacteria.
