Bacteria and archaea are the two types of living beings made up of prokaryotic cells.

<h3>What are bacteria and archaea?</h3>

Bacteria and archaea are both prokaryotic and unicellular organisms. This means that they both lack a true nucleus and membrane-bound organelles. The genetic material is present in a long single loop of chromosome, called the nucleoid.

Both bacteria and archaea have a cell wall present outside of the cell membrane. The structural composition of the cell wall is different among them. In bacteria, the cell wall is made up of peptidoglycan (a sugar and protein complex compound) and in archaea, it is made of pure polysaccharides.

Both of these organisms reproduce asexually. They also have flagella for locomotion, pilus for adherence and a capsule outside of the cell wall for protection against conditions like dehydration.

Therefore, bacteria and archaea are living beings made up of prokaryotic cells.

Churning and the enzyme pepsin break down protein in the stomach
The pancreas releases enzymes trypsin and chymotrypsin
Tryspsin and chymotrypsin act on the proteins to break them down in the duodenum
Amino acids are absorbed by the capillaries in the Jejunum and lastly
The amino acids enter the blood stream and are circulated throughout the body.
