What do a species of Archaea is an acidophile what does it like to live in?

Acid, of course. Many live in naturally occurring organic acids, but some can line in acids that are strong, such as sulfuric and nitric acid.

Why is difficult to classify bacteria and archaea down to the species level?
There are several things that make archaeobacteria hard to study. They live without oxygen and in high temperature environments and they have either a very high or low pH.
Benefits of archaea?
Archaea are single-celled microorganisms that can live in extreme conditions of temperature. The ecological benefits that Archaea have given are important on new discoveries on the evolutionary origin of species and studying them brings a lot of answers to the evolution process of underwater creatures.
Do archaea live in the human body?
yes! Google the human microbiome.
Why do Archaea often referred to as extremophiles because they live in conditions of extreme what?
Archaea. Means " old ones " or " ancient ones " and this is because these type of bacteria were first in the bacterial linage.
How many species of freshwater sponges are there?
I think most of these sponge species live in aquatic habitats. Such as cold oceans in the Arctic and Antarctic, but few live in warmer climates. About 150 of the sponge species live in warm climates, like tropical areas, while most live in cold areas.

Where do archaea live?
They live in extream enviorments like at the bottom of the ocean.
Can bacteria and archaea live in the same environment?
It depends. Not all bacteria and archaea can share the same environment. Most archaea are extremophiles, i.e., they live under extreme environments like high salt concentration, marshy lands, radioactive soil, etc. All bacteria however are not extremophiles. There do exist certain species who live in environments having high temperature (thermophiles), low temperature (psychrophiles), etc but most bacterial species are mesophiles and live under conditions of normal temperature (around 25 to 38 degree celsius). Moreover, temperature is not the only limiting factor. Any kind of extremity that would otherwise be lethal to most living forms are lovely places for archaea to live in. Have you ever wondered why cowdung is a good fuel source? Its because of archaea called methanogens which produce methane from the hydrocarbons present in cowdung. They are thus beneficial to us in a way!
What organism can live where no other organism's live?
bacteria domain archaea
Do slugs like land or lakes or both?
Certain species of slugs live on land, and certain species live in the water. No species of slug can live in both.
Do protists and archaea live together in colonies?
No, archaea and protists are very similar but they do not live together in colonies. Protists is anything that doesn't fit in the category of the other kingdoms. Hope this helped!
Is archaea heterotroph or autotroph?
They can be both..they are mostly heterotrophs do as they rely on other organsims to live
Which domain do organisms live in extreme environments?
Archaea and Bacteria.
Do archaea live in the human body?
yes! Google the human microbiome.
What continent does the gray wolf live on?
i believe they live on North America like most other wolf species
What is an detail about domain archaea?
A group of microorganisms that resemble bacteria but are different from them such as the composition of their cell walls. Archaea usually live in extreme, often very hot or salty environments. The archaea are considered a separate kingdom in some classifications. Some scientists believe that archaea were the earliest forms of cellular life.
