what's the family name for archaebacteria? need to know for biology
Do you mean from the list of Kingdom, Phylum, Class, Order, Family, Genus, Species??
Archaea are their own domain. That's one step above Kingdom, it was relatively recently added. The other two domains are Bacteria and Eukarya.
The classification of archaeabacteria is outdated, it doesn't exist anymore, because archaea and bacteria are so very different, hence different domains.
In short, there is no family name. One example of an archaea family would be the family Thermoproteaceae.
What's the exact question for your biology assignment?
