What is the difference between Eu Bacteria and Archae Bacteria?
Archaebacteria are the oldest living organisms on earth. They are prokaryotes and unicellular. Archaebacteria are found in very harsh conditions (such as at the bottom of the sea or in volcanic vents). This is thought to be because the early Earth’s atmosphere was filled with poisonous gases and was very hot – nothing could survive, except the archaebacteria Eubacteria “new bacteria”- The eubacteria are more complex, and common, than the archaebacteria. It is the eubacteria that most people are talking about when they say bacteria, because they live in more neutral conditions. They can be found everywhere around us – in our bodies, our food, etc. There are four phyla of bacteria, some of which are divided into subgroups.
