They were here long before us, and they’ll likely outlive us—bacteria and archaea are the ultimate survivors. 🦠 In this episode of Deep Dive, we explore the fascinating world of prokaryotic organisms, the microscopic life forms that shape our planet. Discover how bacteria drive ecosystems, aid digestion, and sometimes cause disease, while archaea thrive in extreme environments where no other life can exist. What makes them different? How have they adapted to such diverse conditions? Join us as we uncover the hidden power of these ancient microorganisms! 🔬🌍
