Question
Chapter 25.4, Problem 1C
Summary Introduction
To determine: The types of environment inhabited by archaea.
Introduction: Based on the microbe’s preferred ranges of temperature in which their growth is best supported, there are various types of microbes. Acidophiles, methanogens, thermophiles, and halophiles are the types of archaea based on different environment characteristics.
Summary Introduction
To determine: The importance of methanogens.
Introduction: Based on the microbe’s preferred ranges of temperature in which their growth is best supported, there are various types of microbes. Acidophiles, methanogens, thermophiles, and halophiles are the types of archaea based on different environment characteristics.
