Greenpeace is an independent global campaigning network, founded in Canada in 1971 by a group of environmental activists.Greenpeace states its goal is to "ensure the ability of the Earth to nurture life in all its diversity" [3] and focuses its campaigning on worldwide issues such as climate change, deforestation, overfishing, commercial whaling, genetic engineering, anti-war [4] and anti ...
Greenpeace USA is a nonprofit 501(c) (4) lobby group that seeks “to change current environmental policies and practices” through “grassroots lobbying for various legislative initiatives.” The Greenpeace Fund is a 501 (c) (3) tax deductible charitable organization that promotes Greenpeace USA's mission to protect the environment.

Even though archaeal cells have cells walls, they do not contain peptidoglycan, which means archaea do not produce cellulose or chitin. Archaea are most closely related to eukaryotes due to tRNA present in archaea, but not in bacteria. Archaea have the same ribosomes as eukaryotes that synthesize into proteins. [26]
[2] [3] This was the first compelling evidence that DNA carries the genetic information of the cell. Since then, natural competence has been studied in a number of different bacteria, particularly Bacillus subtilis, Streptococcus pneumoniae, Neisseria gonorrhoeae, Haemophilus influenzae and members of the Acinetobacter genus.

The Greenpeace (NGO) India Society has been accused by the Indian Ministry of Home Affairs of a violation of the Foreign Contribution Regulation Act. As per the FCRA act, no NGO can use more than 50% of received funds for administrative purposes, and Greenpeace India is alleged to have used 60% of these funds for administrative purposes. [49]
Unlike eukaryotic cells, bacteria usually lack large membrane-bound structures in their cytoplasm such as a nucleus, mitochondria, chloroplasts and the other organelles present in eukaryotic cells. [60] However, some bacteria have protein-bound organelles in the cytoplasm which compartmentalise aspects of bacterial metabolism, [61] [62] such as ...
The bacteria, typically found in brackish waters — the product of salt and fresh water mixed together, as in estuaries — with surface temperatures above 13 °C, causes necrotizing fasciitis ...
The process of bacterial cell division is defined as binary fission, where a bacterium splits to produce two daughter cells. [4] This division occurs during cytokinesis, which in bacteria is made possible due to the divisome (a specific large protein complex) and FtsZ (the ancestor to tubulin for bacteria that drives cytokinesis itself).
