Answer (3)

Archaebacteria is the right answer. They are currently known as Archaea, name"Archaebacteria" is a bit outdated. These unicellar prokaryotes were discovered relatively recent (in 70ties).

The students are most likely researching Archaebacteria, unicellular prokaryotes known for living in extreme environments like volcanic hot springs and brine pools. These organisms are distinct from other bacteria due to their unique biochemical properties. Understanding Archaebacteria helps scientists learn about life's early evolution and its adaptability.
