Answer:

1. Presence of thick cell wall in prokaryotes help them to survive in hypo-osmotic and hyper-osmotic conditions.

2. Production of endospores by bacteria. Bacteria use these structures to produce off sprigs because these structures are heat and drought resistant. They germinate when the conditions became favorable for growth.

Describe three ways that microorganisms in soil contribute to the ecosystem as a whole.
