Answer

Prokaryotes which have the ability to grow in extreme conditions like volcano vents, hot spring and polar ice caps are called extremophiles. They have adaptations such as :

◇ Some of them produce Methane (Methanogens).

◇ Some live in salty environment (Halophiles).

◇ Some are thermoacidophiles which thrive in acidic environments and at high temperature.
