Answer:

Explanation:

It occurs when water dissolved with salts seeps into the cracks of a rock. When the water slowly evaporates it leaves behind crystals of salts. When the rock is heated, the salts also expand and create pressure within the cracks, widening them and causing the rock to split.

D) Psychrotrophs.

Explanation:

Psychrotrophs are those bacteria which can tolerate cold temperature and have optimum growth above 15 degree Celsius.
Halophiles prefer high salt concentration.
Mesophiles prefer temperatures with a average of 37 degree Celsius.
Anaerobes grow in absence of oxygen.
In the given experiment, none of the bacterial cultures were placed in saline or anaerobic conditions. So, the bacterial species is not an anaerobe or halophile.
Again the cultures did not show growth at 37 degree celsius so they are not mesophiles.
Maximum growth at 22 degree celsius and a little growth in refrigerator make it obvious that the species is a Psychrotroph.
