Most organisms within the domain Archaea are single-celled microorganisms. These tiny organisms do not have cell nuclei that are bounded by an outer membrane. Because of this, these organisms also are called prokaryotes.

Many of the archaea are extremophiles, meaning they can thrive in extreme environments such as high temperatures, high acidity, or high salinity. They play important roles in various ecosystems, including as decomposers and in nutrient cycling. Some archaea are also known to form symbiotic relationships with other organisms.
