Yes, some archaea are chemoautotrophs. These organisms obtain energy by oxidizing inorganic molecules, such as hydrogen sulfide or ammonia, and use carbon dioxide as their carbon source for growth. This metabolic strategy allows them to thrive in extreme environments where light is not available, such as deep-sea hydrothermal vents and acidic hot springs.

Are archae decomposers?
Archae are decomposers that commonly feed on dead decaying organisms. They are often found at the bottom of the ocean floor.
What is archae Greek for?
The Greek word for archae is αρχαιολογία (archaiología), which translates to "archaeology" in English. It is the study of human history and prehistory through the excavation of sites and the analysis of artifacts and other physical remains.

Are kingdom plants prokaryotic or eukaryotic?
Firstly, archae are not a kingdom but a domain. A domain comes before kingdoms in the taxonomic classification system 3 domains are Eukaryae, Prokaryae and Archae. As you can see from their names, the domain Eukaryae is eukaryotic and the domain Prokaryae is prokaryotic. Archae are different. They are bacteria which live in extreme conditions such as extremely high temperatures, with little oxygen or water, etc. Archae are neither prokaryotic or eukaryotic.
Where does the bacteria chemoautotroph get its food from?
carbon from CO2.
What does a chemoautotroph do to obtain energy for its survival?
A chemoautotroph obtains energy for survival by using inorganic compounds as a source of energy, rather than sunlight. This process is known as chemosynthesis.
