Which type of bacteria can live in harsh conditions and are considered extremophils?
A
Archaebacteriqa
B
Eubacteria
C
Caperia
D
exempleria
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Most extremophiles are microorganisms (and a high proportion of these are archaea), but this group also includes eukaryotes such as protists (e.g., algae, fungi and protozoa) and multicellular organisms. Archaea is the main group to thrive in extreme environments.

Detailed explanation-2: -Extremophiles. Extremophiles are unicellular microbes (bacteria and archaea) that thrive in extreme environments. Many of these belong to archaea, which are considered to be an ancient bridge between bacteria and eukarya.

Detailed explanation-3: -Today we look at four types of extremophiles: thermophiles, psychrophiles, halophiles and acidophiles.

Detailed explanation-4: -Extremophilic organisms are primarily prokaryotic (archaea and bacteria), with few eukaryotic examples.

Detailed explanation-5: -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
