This is a type of connective tissue that has fibers, which are composed of collagen. You can refer to the image attached to see the parallel bundles of these collagenic fibers.
So, basically this formations help to forms strong tissue like tendons or ligaments.
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.
