Solution (1) Archaea contain more unidentified genes than bacteria. Therefore, Just by knowing that the Thaumarchaeota are Archaea, it is possible to predict that their genomes (may contain more unidentified genes than) those of most Bacteria. (2) Parasites are smaller in size than hyperthermophiles. Therefore, Just by knowing tha N. equitans is a parasite, it is possible to predict that its genome (is/are smaller than) those of most other hyperthermophiles. (3) Genome of an autotroph is larger than a heterotroph. Therefore, Just by knowing that a bacterium is an autotroph, it is possible to predict that its genome ( is/are larger than) those of average heterotrophs..

Solution
(1) Archaea contain more unidentified genes than bacteria.
Therefore,
Just by knowing that the Thaumarchaeota are Archaea, it is possible to predict that their genomes
(may contain more unidentified genes than) those of most Bacteria.
(2) Parasites are smaller in size than hyperthermophiles.
Therefore,
Just by knowing tha N. equitans is a parasite, it is possible to predict that its genome (is/are
smaller than) those of most other hyperthermophiles.
(3) Genome of an autotroph is larger than a heterotroph.
Therefore,
Just by knowing that a bacterium is an autotroph, it is possible to predict that its genome ( is/are
larger than) those of average heterotrophs.
