have you ever wonder?
Have you ever wonder what temperature do bacteria or any other microorganism will grow in? Well, I did and surely I am not the only one that have asked herself that question. This in my microbiology class I learned that different organisms may grow in different kind of temperature. The first kind of microorganism I will discuss are Psycrophiles which simply mean microorganism that require temperatures of below 20 degrees Celsius There are also Mesophiles which are microorganism that grow best in temperature ranging between 20-40 degrees Celsius. Mesophiles are the one that are most likely to grow in humans. Thermophiles are the ones that require temperature above 45 degrees Celsius. Finally, Hyperthermophiles require temperature above 80 degrees Celsius.
