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!
Protists and bacteria are grouped into different domains because the Protists are more complex and contain a membrane backed nucleus which bacteria lacks. Furthermore, Protists eat bacteria and bacteria decomposes Protists. Bacteria is not made of cells and Protists are photosynthetic.
They are merely definitions, with one of them encompassing the other. A microorganism or microbe is an organism that is microscopic (usually too small to be seen by the naked human eye). Microorganisms include bacteria, fungi, archaea, and protists; microscopic plants (called green algae); and animals such as plankton, the planarian and the amoeba.Therefore, it would be similar to asking is a Pine tree the same thing as a tree?
The kingdom that includes bacteria is the Kingdom Monera. This kingdom is made up of unicellular prokaryotic organisms that lack a distinct nucleus and membrane-bound organelles. Bacteria are considered to be one of the major groups within this kingdom.
Woese proposed separating bacteria and archaea into separate domains because they have fundamental genetic and biochemical differences that are more substantial than differences between other groups classified at the same hierarchical level. This classification reflects the evolutionary distance between these two groups and their distinctiveness in terms of genetic information processing and cell structure.
The organism is likely a member of the Archaea domain, as they are unicellular organisms that lack a true nucleus and peptidoglycan in their cell walls. Archaea have distinct genetic and biochemical characteristics that differentiate them from bacteria.
Most extremophiles are simple, single-celled life forms, yet many are not. Extremophiles occur in all three domains of life: bacteria, archaea, and eukaryotes. ... However, archaea aren't restricted to extreme environments; they live in most of the same places as bacteria
The bacteria cell wall is made of peptidoglycan, while archaea cell walls lack peptidoglycan. Also, the archaea cell membrane contain ether linkages, while the bacteria cell membrane contains ether bonds.
Archaea live in extreme environments, while bacteria are found in various habitats. Archaea have unique cell wall composition and membrane lipids not found in bacteria. Additionally, archaea have simpler RNA polymerases compared to bacteria.
Archaebacteria and eubacteria are two different domains.Domains are the highest (widest) levels of the taxonomic hierarchy, kingdoms come below this level so be careful not to refer to them like this.
Yes- archaea is another name for archaebacteria. If you disagree with me, look up the word archaea on dictionary.com and you will find this at the bottom of the definition:"Also called Archaebacteria."This (I would think) would prove my point in saying that Archaea is the same as Archaebacteria. The End.(If I am wrong, then don't blame me- blame ditionary.com and jsyk, I am NOT trying to dis dictionary.com, because they have a definition for the Beatles, which makes me VERY EMOTIONALLY HAPPY!!! 8D So don't think that I'm trying to dis dictionary.com! And if you didn't think I was, then good for you- you just earned a gold star sticker! BUT WAIT- THERE'S MORE! You also got some Brownie Points! Congrats!)

Animalia is the kingdom. The domain for it is Eukarya, the domain for it also has 3 other kingdoms. Plantae, Fungi, and Protista, There are 3 domains, Bacteria, Archaea, and Eukarya. Bacteria is the kingdom for the Domain in a way. They are kind of the same, same way for the Archeae. The Fungi in Eurkarya feeds on dead or decayed materials. Bacteria causes germs to get you sick, those are just a couple of examples on what they do. Note that bacteria is party of the Bacteria domain, not the Eurkaya. Bacteria and Archaea may be called that for the domain, but they are also called the same name for their kingdom.
they look similar, they have similar DNA, they are both very ancient organisms, they both perform the same ecological function

It is unlikely to find thermoacidophilic bacteria and enteric bacteria in the same environment, as thermoacidophiles typically thrive in high-temperature, acidic conditions (such as hot springs), while enteric bacteria typically inhabit the gastrointestinal tracts of animals and humans. Their optimal growth conditions and habitats differ significantly.
The presence of certain genetic and molecular features, such as introns, histones, and similarities in the RNA polymerase structure, suggest a closer evolutionary relationship between archaea and eukaryotes. Additionally, comparative genomics studies have shown that archaea share more genes and metabolic pathways with eukaryotes than with bacteria. This evidence supports the hypothesis that archaea and eukaryotes share a common ancestry.
Lizards are reptiles, and reptiles are cold blooded which means they can stand massive heat. So yes, they can live in the same type of environment but they all can live in the same exact environment.
