Archaea reproduce asexually by binary or multiple fission, fragmentation, or budding; meiosis does not occur, so if a species of archaea exists in more than one form, all have the same genetic material. Cell division is controlled in a cell cycle after the cell's chromosome is replicated and the two daughter chromosomes separate, the cell divides. Details have only been investigated in the genus Sulfolobus, but here that cycle has characteristics that are similar to both bacterial and eukaryotic systems. The chromosomes replicate from multiple starting-points using DNA polymerases that resemble the equivalent eukaryotic enzymes. However, the proteins that direct cell division, such as the protein FtsZ, which forms a contracting ring around the cell, and the components of the septum that is constructed across the center of the cell, are similar to their bacterial equivalents.
Both bacteria and eukaryotes, but not archaea, make spores. Some species of Haloarchaea undergo phenotypic switching and grow as several different cell types, including thick-walled structures that are resistant to osmotic shock and allow the archaea to survive in water at low salt concentrations, but these are not reproductive structures and may instead help them reach new habitats.

What are two ways to reproduce?
Two ways are sexual and asexual.
Does archaebacteria reproduce asexually?
YES! Archaea reproduce asexually by binary or multiple fission, fragmentation, or budding; meosis does not occur, so if a species of archaea exists in more than one form, these will all have the same genetic material.
Is archaea reproduce by binary fission?
yes all prokaryotes reproduce by binary fission

Budding and Lysis.

What are two ways that sponges reproduce?
by budding and sexually
How does archaea reproduce?
Archaebacteria reproduce asexually: by division, budding, or fragmentation.Miosis is not part of the reproductive processes for archaebacteria. They are also unicellular.
What are two ways that organims reproduce?
There are two main methods. They are sexual and asexual reproduction.
What are two ways archaea different from the eubacteria?
the archea has 5 nucleus and the eubacteria only have 3..... visit the comparision website for a better answer....
Which two groups are the most similar in physical characteristics Archaea and Eubacteria Archaea and viruses Eukarya and Eubacteria Archaea and Eukarya?
Archaea and Eubacteria are the most similar in physical characteristics, as both are prokaryotic organisms lacking a nucleus and membrane-bound organelles. They share similar cellular structures, such as the presence of a cell wall and the ability to reproduce asexually. In contrast, viruses are acellular and do not possess the cellular structures found in Archaea or Eubacteria, while Eukarya have more complex cellular characteristics.
Is archaea sexual or asexual?
I'm pretty sure it is asexual.
What prokaroytic group inhabits extreme environments?
The prokaryotic group that tend to inhabit extreme environment belongs to the domain archaea. Prokaryotes reproduce by means of binary fission.
