Classify the bacteria that is most likely involved in each situation provided according to their classification (as to microbial growth requirements). Check the correct answers from the choices.
1. The bacteria under study thrives at the alveolar ducts in the lungs causing respiratory disease.
Obligate aerobe
Obligate anaerobe
Microaerophile
Aerotolerant anaerobe
Mesophile
Thermophiles
2. A microorganism that can survive pickling and refrigeration was discovered when a jar of pickles grew several colonies despite following the correct recipe, tight closure seal, and proper refrigeration.
Psychrophile
Psychrotroph
Neutrophile
Acidophile
Obligate aerobe
Microaerophile
3. The spoiled bottle of wine that was stored at standard room temperature for several months eventually gave off a vinegar-like taste and odor. Spoilage was found to be due to the leaky bottle closure leading to bacterial contamination.
Acidophile
Alkaliphile
Mesophile
Thermophile
Obligate Anaerobe
Obligate Aerobe
4. In the experiment, the agar plate containing an axenic culture was originally incubated inside a candle jar for one day and then transferred to an oxygen-rich incubator for another day. Findings: the microbial growth persisted and stayed the same regardless of the specific type of incubation employed.
Capnophile
Microaerophile
Obligate Anaerobe
Obligate Aerobe
Aerotolerant Anaerobe
Facultative Anaerobe

- Hi can I get help on this microbiology question please? I am stuck and do not understand it. Thank you A prokaryotic cell hitched a ride to Earth on a space shuttle from some unknown planet. Microbiologists studied the microorganism and concluded it is a psychrophile, an obligate halophile, and an obligate aerobe. 1. Based on the characteristics of the microorganism described in this case, describe at least three characteristics that the unknown planet where the microorganism lived before must have so that it can survive in it. 2.
