Arigato is a term originated from a meaning "Arigatai (hard to happen for real)".
Originally it is an expression to show one's gratitude.
"Domo" derives from an expression "Doumo ienu (it's hard to describe)" used in Edo period.
It is used for expressing greetings, deep appreciation, or apologies. (Emphasis)
"Domo arigato gozaimasu (Thank you very much)", "Domo moushiwake arimasendeshita (I am very sorry)", or on the contrary it is used for expressing casual greetings or apologies, too. "Yah, domo (hey what's up)", "Domo sumimasen ne (sorry about that)". Japanese distinguish such conflicting situations with the same term.

The word Arigatou came from the word "Arigatai".
It is a word originally used to express a feeling of gratitude to a person who has done something for you.
The word "Doumo" originated from the word "Doumo ie nu" (literally translates to "I don't know what to say") during the Edo period.
It is used in greetings and to express deep gratitude or apology. (Emphasis)
Examples include: "Doumo Arigatou Gozaimasu" (Thank you very much) or"Doumo Moushiwake arimasen deshita" (I am very sorry).
Conversely, it is used when expressing a light-hearted greeting or gratitude.
Examples include: "Yaa, Doumo" (Oh, Hi there) or "Doumo Itsumo sumimasen ne" (Thank you as always).
Japanese people use these same words selectively in contradicting scenarios.
