Answer:

Archaea

Explanation:

Archaea are prokaryotes, which means they lack a nucleus. Many Archaea are extremophiles, organisms that live in extreme conditions, which give us another hint. But most importantly, a unique characteristic of Archaea is the presence of ether linkages in the lipids of their cytoplasmic membranes. This  distinguishes archaea from eukaryotes and most bacteria.
