Question

Thermophiles are organisms which thrive in extremely high temperatures. What adaptations must these archaea make in their cellular components to allow them to function in this environment?

Answer 1

Answer:

They have more bonds (ionic, vdW, polar, peptide, hydrogen) and a thicker phospholipid bilayer than their similarly-structured heat-intolerant counterparts-DNA - two bonds between adenine and thymine, three bonds between cytosine and guanine, MORE C-G PAIRINGS2.
