    Initially, Archaea were classified as part of Bacteria, but sequencing technologies enabled them to separate these phylogenetic groups.

    Explanation:

    Archaea and Bacteria are different domains that belong to a kingdom known as prokaryotes. Prokaryotes are unicellular organisms that lack membrane nucleus, and any class of internal membrane, thereby they neither have organelles. These domains (Archaea and Bacteria) are primarily classified according to the level of sequence homology, being archaea organisms closer to eukaryotes compared than bacteria. Moreover, it has also been proposed that Bacteria are ancestors of eukaryotic organelles.
