- Archaebacteria a varied group of bacteria (prokaryotes) that is sometimes referred to as the archaea and is regarded a distinct group.
- The biochemistry of the bases in their ribosomal RNA, as well as the nature of their plasma membranes and cell walls, distinguishes Archaebacteria from Eubacteria.
- Methanogens, halophiles, and thermophiles are the three primary types of Archaebacteria that are known.
- Anaerobic microorganisms that create methane are known as methanogens.
- Sewage treatment plants, wetlands, and ruminant digestive systems are all places where they may be found. Natural gas is produced from ancient methanogens.
- Halophiles are bacteria that live in high salt environments, such as salt lakes or seawater pools.
- Thermophiles are bacteria that thrive in hot environments, such as hot springs and hydrothermal vents.
- Many thermophiles are chemosynthetic (see chemosynthesis), which means they get their energy from dissolved sulphur or other elements and breathe via iron.
- Archaebacteria first appeared at least 3.5 billion years ago, and they thrive in circumstances similar to those that existed when the world was young.
