Archaeon Archaea are characterized by: 1. the presence of characteristic tRNAs and ribosomal RNAs, 2. the absence of peptidoglycan cell walls, 3. the presence of ether-linked lipids built from branched-chain subunits, and 4. their occurrence in unusual habitats. While archaea resemble Bacteria in morphology and genomic organization, they resemble eukarya in their method of genomic replication
