Naegleria fowleri is most common in which of the following habitats?
Select one:
1)The ocean
2)Warm bodies of freshwater
3)Northern rivers
4)Cold mountain lakes
The answer is option - 2 i,e. Warm bodies of freshwater.
Naegleria fowleri is a free living, heat loving amoeba, also known as brain eating amoeba. Generally, found in warm & freshwater ponds, lakes and rivers.
Ocean water is generally saline in nature which is not a suitable environment for its living.
Northern rivers is the most north east region of Australia and New south wales having many rivers like clarence, tweed, richmond which are not suitable for its living because of less temprature than required.
In cold mountain lakes the water is generally having less temperature or very cold, and this amoeba is a heat loving organism hence it is not found in cold mountain rivers.
