Question

advantage and disadvantage of archea
​

Answer 1

Answer:

Advantages: Methanogenic archaea play a pivotal role in ecosystems with organisms that derive energy from oxidation of methane, many of which are bacteria, as they are often a major source of methane in such environments and can play a role as primary producers

Answer 2

${\bigstar}$Advantages${\bigstar}$

• Methanogenic archaea play a pivotal role in ecosystems with organisms that derive energy from oxidation of methane, many of which are bacteria, as they are often a major source of methane in such environments and can play a role as primary producers.

${\bigstar}$Disadvantage${\bigstar}$

• As a sulfolobus, archaea produce a waste product in a form of sulfuric acid in sulfur cycle in the sulfur-rich environment. Even if they release oxidizing sulfur compounds for another organism, this sulfuric acid can contribute to acid mine drainage and environmental damages.
