Question

What are two physical conditions bacteia need to survive a marine environent. It is a gram negative bacteria found in shallow marine pools of water that temps exceed 50 degrees C !

Answer 1

The microorganisms are the organisms which inhabit in the marine environment having unique properties that they have the ability to adopt extreme marine environment conditions such as,

• Low or high temperatures
• Acidic or alkaline water
• High pressure etc

The marine environment are rich in source of biological and chemical diversity. The metagenomics is the new technology which is used to detect the life of microorganisms in extreme environments. The bacterias are classified in to two namely, Gram positive bacteria and gram negative bacteria and this classification is based the ability of bacteria to retain the gram stain and the gram stain is the purple dye. The important feature of gram negative bacteria is they having a tough outer membrane and which consists of lipopolysaccharides with the thinner peptidoglycan cell wall and this wall membrane protects them from extreme environments.
