They can live in extremely acidic and extremely salty habitats.They flourish near deep-sea vents where no light reaches, and they can use sulfur to convert energy.

Some of the molecules in archaea are not found in any other living things.

04

Archaea live in harsh environments, such as hot springs and thermal vents, where other organisms could not survive. Some archaea are found in the open ocean and soil.​

They differ from bacteria in their genetics and in the makeup of their cell walls.

01

Domain Archaea is also made up of prokaryotes.

Domain ARCHAEA

Other bacterial consumers live in or on the body of another organism.

Some bacterial consumers are decomposers, which feed on dead organisms.

04

Some bacteria use energy from sunlight to make food, and are often green.

05

03

Bacteria live in almost any environment—soil, water, and even inside the human body! ​

01

It is made up of prokaryotes that usually have a cell wall and reproduce by cell division

Domain Bacteria

Bacteria that are shaped like spirals can move like corkscrews. Bacteria shaped likerods quickly absorb nutrients. Round bacteria do not dry out quickly.

Binary fission is reproduction in which one single-celled organism splits into two single-celled organisms

09

Most bacteria have a rigid cell wall that gives them their shape. Each shape helps bacteria in a different way.

07

Each bacterium must take in nutrients, release energy from food, get rid of wastes, and grow on its own.

06

Bacteria are small,single-celled organisms. Some bacteria stick together to form strands or films, but usually each bacterium still functions as an independent organism.
