    C) thermophile growth at 37°C

    Explanation:

    A thermophile is an extremophile organism because it grows in an extreme environmental conditions in comparison to an environmental conditions comfortable to humans. Thermophiles develop successfuly between 41 and 122 °C. Thermophiles can be classified in many ways, one of them, based on the optimal growth temperatures is as follows

    Simply thermophiles: 50-64 °C

    Extreme thermophiles 65-79 °C

    Hyperthermophiles 80 °C and beyond, but not < 50 °C.

    According to this information the statement in c is mismatched because the minimum temperature thermophiles need to grow is 50°C, so they are not able to grow at 37°C.
