what is the difference between archaebacteria and eubacteria?how is archaebacteria different from other bacteria?how is eubacteria different than other bacteria?
Archaebacteria | Eubacteria |
1. Found in extreme environmental conditions such as hot springs. 2. Primitive bacteria evolved early in the history of earth. 3. Cell wall is variable containing no muramic acid. 4. Membrane lipids are ether linked containing D- glycerol phosphate. 5. Molecular machinery is similar to eukaryotes. 6. Gene contain introns. |
1. Found in almost everywhere. 2. True bacteria evolved later. 3. Cell wall is made up of peptidoglycan with muramic acid. 4. Membrane lipids are ester linked containing L- glycerol phosphate. 5. Molecular machinery is typical prokaryotic type. 6. Gene do not contain introns. |
