How are eubacteria different from archaebacteria?

Eubacteria are true bacteria. They:-contain peptidoglycan in cell wall-straight-chain ester-linked lipids in cell membrane-four subunit RNA polymerase core-some are pathogenicThe classification archaebacteria is outdated. Archaea are separate from bacteria because they have unique characteristics. They:-lack peptidoglycan in cell walls-branched-chain ether-linked lipids in cell membrane-can obtain energy through methanogenesis-lipid stereochemistry is opposite of that in other organisms-lack thymine in tRNA-ten subunit RNA polymerase core-none are pathogenicEubacteria and archaebacteria have similar general cell structures, but the composition and layout of those cellular components is remarkably different.
