What is the difference between Archaea and Eubacteria (or Bacteria)?

Content: This group is considered as the primitive living organisms of the planet. Although Archaea and eubacteria are considered as two groups, they are prokaryotic organisms. Archaea (Archaebacteria)
Archaea is unicellular, and it is found in extreme environments such as in deep sea, hot springs, alkaline or acid water. The early planet had different environment composition from the environment of today. This oldest living organism had tolerance for that harsh environment. The three phyla of Archaea are methanogens, halophiles, and thermoacidophiles. Methanogens can produce methane and are obligate anaerobes. They can be seen in human and some other animal’s intestinal tracts. Halophiles, as their name implies, can be found in salt environments such as Dead Sea, the Great Salt Lake. Habitats of the thermoacidophiles are high tempered acidic environments such as volcanic and hydrothermal vents.
