Detailed explanation-1: -Examples include Ferroplasma sp., Cupriavidus metallidurans and GFAJ-1. An organism with optimal growth in nutritionally limited environments. An organism with optimal growth in environments with a high sugar concentration.
Detailed explanation-2: -Today we look at four types of extremophiles: thermophiles, psychrophiles, halophiles and acidophiles.
Detailed explanation-3: -Extremophilic organisms are primarily prokaryotic (archaea and bacteria), with few eukaryotic examples. Extremophiles are defined by the environmental conditions in which they grow optimally.
Detailed explanation-4: -Thermophiles, which are adapted to living in very hot environments from 40o C-110o C. Psychrophiles, which are archaeans and bacteria that live in very cold environments from 0o C-20o C. Cryophiles, which are cold-loving eukaryotes. More items •21-Feb-2022
