Which of the following is mismatched?

a. Extreme halophiles - adapted to salty habitats

b. Hyperthermophiles - adapted to high temperatures

c. Thermoplasmas - adapted to warm-blooded animal environments

d. Psychrophiles - adapted to very low temperatures

e. Methanogens - convert CO2 and H2 into methane

The answer is option C Thermoplasmas - adapted to warm-blooded animal environments

Explanation:

Thermoplasmas is refereed to as Thermoplasma volcanium, it is a moderate thermoacidophilic archaea outlying from acidic hydrothermal solfatara fields and vents. It is motile and has no cell wall. It is a facultative anaerobic chemoorganoheterotroph No preceding phylogenetic modification or classification have been made for this organism.

Thermoplasma volcanium reproduces asexually through nonpathogenic and binary fission.

C. Thermoplasmas - adapted to warm blooded animal environment.

Explanation:

Thermoplasmas are known for their abilities to survive in hot acidic environments. These organisms can be found in coal dump sites and by oxidation of pyrite wastes these sites produces sulfuric acid. Thermoplasmas are of two species.

1. T. Acidophilus

2. T. Volcanium

They have no cell wall
