I think it is B. Unlike Eubacteria, Archaea are capable of surviving in extreme environments.

Answer:

Option A

Explanation:

The DNA structure of these species i.e Eubacteria and Archaea differ from each other.

The DNA of an archae is called as plasmid which is nothing but the single DNA loop while a  Eubacteria  (like all prokrayotes) consists of genome made up of single, double-stranded DNA molecule. The region that comprise of this genetic material is known as nucleoid. The bacterial chromosome has several proteins and RNA molecules on it

Both arcahe and eubacteria have cellwall and hence they are able to survive in extreme climatic conditions.

Archae has DNA while Eubacteria has both DNA and RNA

Both Archae and Eubacteria are prokaryotes, therefore they do not have membrane-bound nucleus

Hence, option A is correct
