Hello. You forgot to mention that the article you are in and the research refer to the relationship between eukaryotes and archeas.
Answer:
Research has shown that not only archaea was related to the creation of eukaryotic cells, but bacteria were also involved.
Explanation:
For many years it was believed that archaea and eukaryotic cells were genetically related due to an evolutionary process that involved the generation of eukaryotic cells through the evolution of archaea. At the same time, scientists believed that archaea were more closely linked to eukaryotic cells than bacteria.
However, the research shown in the article to which the question refers showed that this thought was incorrect. This is because the research says that bacteria are also closely related to eukaryotic cells, which means that together with archaea, bacteria were part of the evolutionary process that formed these cells.
