Archaebacteria are the oldest organisms living on earth. They are unicellular prokaryotes and belong to the kingdom Archaea. They can be found in very harsh conditions such as volcanic vents or the tundra.
archaebacteria are unicellular, prokaryotic, are extremophiles, reproduce asexually, are obligate anaerobes, and have cell walls that don't have peptidogylcan
Archaebacteria are unicellular prokaryotes that are the oldest living organisms on Earth. Some characteristics include survival in oxygen-free environments, being extremophiles and reproduction is asexual.
After the discovery of archaebacteria, it was decided that archaebacteria and eubacteria have too many different characteristics that they need their own domains.
Scientists study physical, chemical, reproductive, and DNA characteristics of a subject species, and compare these results with the results from other archaebacteria.
Most archaebacteria need to have air and water to survive. Some archaebacteria don't need air only sunlight to survive.
and autotrophic
Both. Some archaebacteria are autotrophic and can use photosynthesis to obtain their food. Some archaebacteria are heterotrophic and obtain their food by eating other organic organisms.
most archaebacteria don't move and are instead moved around by their environment. some have flagella, though
Archaebacteria are some of the oldest organisms living on Earth. They are considered simple because of their external body structure.
Archaebacteria, now reclassified as archaea, come in a variety of colors. Some common colors of archaea are purple, red, and white.
thermophiles inhabiting the hot springs
Archaebacteria are not necessarily harmful to humans or the environment. However, some extremophiles, a type of Archaebacteria, can cause issues in industrial settings, such as corrosion in oil pipelines. Additionally, some Archaebacteria are involved in methane production, which can contribute to greenhouse gas emissions.
