Archaebacteria differ from eubacteria in
Archaebacteria generally have the same shape, size, nutrition and appearance as bacteria. They multiply by means of binary fission.
However, archaebacteria cell walls do not contain peptidoglycan. They also have different membrane lipid bond as compared to the bacteria and eukarya. Archea membrane lipids have ether bonds whereas bacteria has ester-linked lipids.
Thus, the correct answer is option A.
Read the following statements regarding archaebacteria. I. Their cell wall lacks peptidoglycan. II. They contain membrane bound organelles. III. These have distinct ribosomal RNA sequence. IV. Lipid in cell membrane of archaebacteria have different structure than those in all other organisms. Choose the incorrect option.
