Which of the following features is related to thermophilic bacteria?
Correct answer: A. Bacteria that thrive in high-temperature environments like hot springs
- A. Bacteria that thrive in high-temperature environments like hot springs
- B. Cyanobacteria play an important role in nitrogen fixation
- C. The bacterial species Salmonella typhi causes typhoid in humans
- D. Bacteria in the large intestine of humans synthesize vitamins
Explanation
The correct answer is Option A:Bacteria that thrive in high-temperature environments like hot springsThermophilic bacteria are known for their ability to survive and function at high temperatures, often found in environments such as hot springs and hydrothermal vents. The other options describe features of different types of bacteria or their roles in ecosystems, but do not specifically relate to thermophilic bacteria.
