Answer:

C) phenotypic plasticity

Explanation:

  • The ability of an organism to change phenotypically according to environmental conditions is known as <u>Phenotypic plasticity</u>.

Organisms might adjust their morphology and physiology to a better performance in environmental heterogeneity.

Generalists species might present a higher magnitude of phenotypic plasticity than specialist species.

  • Sulfur-reduction bacteria are obligated anaerobic microorganisms, that are <u><em>metabolically versatile</em></u><u><em>. </em></u>They might grow either as heterotrophs using organic molecules or as autotrophs using hydrogen and carbon dioxide.    

These bacteria are <u>notoriously adaptable</u> and <u>might be found in many different environments</u> (terrestrial and/or aquatics) where there is no oxygen due to aerobic decomposition of the organic matter.  

<em>They can be found in anoxic sulfuric environments. In the soil, in estuaries mud, in freshwater, in sewage systems, salty waters, thermal water, sulfur deposits, in oil and gas wells, and even in animals and insects intestine</em>.
