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.
