Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -The term psychrotrophs (also denominated psychrotolerant) refers to microorganisms that have the ability to grow at low temperatures but have optimal and maximal growth temperatures above 15 and 20 °C, respectively (Moyer and Morita, 2007).
Detailed explanation-2: -Psychrophilic microorganisms have a maximum temperature for growth at 20 degrees C or below and are restricted to permanently cold habitats.
Detailed explanation-3: -Psychrophiles are extremophilic bacteria or archaea which are cold-loving having an optimal temperature for growth at about 15°C or lower, a maximal temperature for growth at about 20°C and a minimal temperature for growth at 0°C or lower.
