Archaebacteria are considered as most primitive prokaryote which appeared on earth for the first time as it could survive through the anaerobic harsh environment present that time.
Halophilus, Thermoacidophiles and Methanogens are Archaebacteria.
Methanogens are present in the rumen of cattle that is present in dung as well. It helps in production of methane gas that is a component of biogas.

 KINGDOM FUNGI (maltcellular) The fungi constitute a unique kingdom of heterotrophic organisms. They show a great diversity in morphology and habitat. You must have seen fungi on a moist bread and rotten fruits. The common mushroom you eat and toadstools are also fungi. White spots seén on mustard leaves are due to a parasitic fungus. Some unicellular fungi, e.g.. yeast are used to make bread and beer. Other fungi cause diseases in plants and animals; wheat rust-causing Puccinia is an important example. Some are the source of antibiotics, e.g., Penicillium. Fungi are cosmopolitan and occur in air, water, soil and on animals and plants. They prefer to grow in warm and humid places. Have you ever wondered why we keep food in the refrigerator? Yes, it is to prevent food from going bad due to bacterial or fungal infections. With the exception of yeasts which are unicellular, fungi are filamentous. Their bodies consist of long, slender thread-like structures called hyphae. The network of hyphae is known as mycelium. Some hyphae are continuous tubes filled with multinucleated cytoplasm - these are called coenocytic hyphae. Others have septae or cross walls in their hyphae. The cell walls of fungi are composed of chitin and polysaccharides. Most fungi are heterotrophic and absorb soluble organic matter from dead substrates and hence are called saprophytes. Those that depend on living plants and animals are called parasites. They can also live as symbionts -in association with algae as lichens and with roots of higher plants as mycorrhiza. Algae +fungi Reproduction in fungi can take place by vegetative means fragmentation, fission and budding. Asexual reproduction is by spores
