What is the difference of bacteria from all other living organism?

the biggest difference is that bacteria lack a nucleus and other membrane bound organelles!!! they are the only kingdom(s) which have this property. All other living organisms are eukaryotic or have a nucleus and other membrane bound organelles e.g. motochondria, endoplasmic reticulum, lysosomes, etc Bacteria can then be divided into Archaea and Eubacteria based upon the development of their cell walls as well as the way in which protein are made (differ in rRNA and transcriptive process)

What is the difference of bacteria from all other living organism?
they are in a different kingdom (ex: Animalia, Plantae...)
Reply:The main difference is the way they make their cell walls. They use peptidoglycan, while Archaeans don't. Plants use cellulose and Fungi use chitin.
