Archaebacteria are prokaryotes. They may be spherical, rod-shaped, spiral ,lobed, plate-shaped, irregular shaped or pleomorphic. Some are unicellular whereas others are filamentous or aggregates. They reproduce by means of binary fission, fragmentation or budding etc.

They live, metabolizing food and reproducing (some in your gut).

They are just the oldest known of single celled life-forms.

Their cells lack a nucleus, i.e. their DNA floats in the cytoplasm of their cells.
