Question

2) A population of thermophilic archaebacteria are generally found in hot springs. Any
change to the temperature of the water affects the survival of the archaeabacteria. If the
temperature of hot springs gets reduced, change in which component can allow survival of few
members of these archaeabacteria?
(a) cell wall
(b) cytoplasm
(C) DNA
(d) ribosomes​

Answer 1

Answer:

cell wall

Explanation:

change in it will help them surving in somewhat cold water

Answer 2

Answer:

(a) A population of thermophilic archaebacteria is generally found in hot springs. Any change in the temperature of the water affects the survival of the archaebacteria. If the temperature of hot springs gets reduced, a change in cell wall can allow the survival of a few members of these archaea bacteria.

Explanation:

• Archaebacteria vary from eubacteria in the construction and nature of their cell walls, which aids them in surviving in harsh environments.
• Its cell wall changes will aid them in surviving in cold water.
