Explain TWO strategic ways employed by microbes of extreme environments that enable them withstand harsh environmental and physical conditions

Explanation:

Some microbes are thermophiles and they can survive in area with high temperature between 45 -80°C, they are chemoautotroph in nature, oxidizing sulphur to products acids such as sulfur in the environment. This acid also help them to better adapt to the environment as many thermophiles likes acidic environment.

Thermophiles body has saturated and straight chain fatty acid that helps prevent denaturation which enables them grow and thrive in harsh weather condition by providing the fluidity that is needed in membrane function.

Thermophiles are also small in sizes this ensure there stability.

As your body converts food into energy during exercise, it produces heat as a waste product. This extra heat can elevate your body temperature above the typical 98.6 degrees. To maintain homeostasis, the blood vessels in your skin dilate to allow more blood flow to the surface of your body where it disperses the heat.
