Archaea are a major group of prokaryotes, single-celled organisms without nuclei. In the three-domain classification system introduced by Carl Woese in 1990, they are one of three […]
Archaea and bacteria are both prokaryotes, but differ in biochemistry, genetic structure, cell membranes, and environments. Archaea can survive extreme conditions and have unique ribosomes and RNA polymerase. They were discovered in the 1970s and are one of three domains of life. Archaea and bacteria are both single-celled microorganisms known as prokaryotes, but this is […]
