Question
Chapter 16, Problem 5RQ
Summary Introduction
A few euryarchaetoes thrive in the thermal temperature and some are hyperthermophiles. There are three hyperthermophilic euryarchaetoes and it is branch very near the Euryarchaeota root. Two of these is Pyrococcus and Thermococcus, form a distinct taxonomic order and third organism is Methanopyrus. It is a methanogen and closely resembles other methanogens in its physiology basic but it is unusual in its hyperthermophily, phylogenetic position, and lipids.
