NTA AbhyasNTA Abhyas 2022

Solution:

Archaebacteria are ancient bacteria, and they live in an extreme environment like hot springs and salty lakes. These bacteria don't need oxygen to survive. The archaebacteria that can survive in extreme salty areas are called halophiles. They require a salty environment for survival. Example: Halobacterium salinarum, Halobacterium denitrificans, etc.
