Gram Positive

Habitat:
Eubacteria live almost everywhere in the world. They occupy soil, the earth's crust, and even living creatures.
Evolutionary Milestones:
Helped start the phylogenetic tree, as they are nearly as old as archaea. Though to be the ancestor of all living things. Their true milestone is being Eukaryotic.
Anatomical Structure:
-Nearly twenty times the amount of peptidoglycan than Gram-negative
-Two supporting rings on flagellum
-Lipoproteins are not present
Eating and Retreating:
Eubacteria can be heterotrophic, autotrophic, or chemotrophic. They consume the high-energy, carbon products of other living organisms. Others use inorganic compounds such as hydrogen gas. They are eaten by fungi and some other bacteria.
Symmetry:
N/A
Mobility:
Flagellum
Reproduction:
Asexual through binary fission. The difference between eubacteria and archaea is that eubacteria can remain dormant in spores for years.
Development:
As with archaea, eubacteria do not have stages of development, as they are born fully matured adult cells.
Examples:
-Staphylococcus epidermidis
-Streptococcus pyogenes
-Clostridium tetani
Other Information:
-Eubacteria are found in every type of habitat on Earth
-Cell walls made of lipopolysaccharide also
-Bacterial metabolism is more complex than eukaryotic
