Group 2

Prokaryotic organisms, which lack a cell nucleus, are classified into two main groups: Archaea and Bacteria. Archaea have distinct cell wall compositions without muramic acid and ester-linked branched fatty aliphatic chains in their membrane lipids, while their RNA lacks thymidine in tRNA.
