Penicillin is an antibiotic drug that interferes with cell wall synthesis in bacteria, eventually resulting in cell death. What effect would you predict if you applied penicillin to archaea?

A) The archaea would die due to the weakening of their cell walls.
B) The archaea would not be affected, since they do not contain peptidoglycan.
C) The archaea would not be affected, since none of the archaea have cell walls.
D) The archaea would die due to their inability to synthesize protein for their cell walls.
