They adapt because they can replicate quickly (have many generations within short period of time) and accumulate mutations. Mutations in their genetic information allows them to bypass the host's immune system or resist to antibiotics. These mutations are successfully carried to the next generations of bacteria and allows them to thrive in their new environments. <span />

Sedaia [141]

Salt is the Inorganic matter.

Option D.

<h3><u>Explanation:</u></h3>

Organic matters are defined as those compounds of carbon expect the carbonates, bicarbonates, cyanides etc. These compounds were primarily thought to be produced only from the living organisms and were unable to be produced in laboratory. But later they were being produced in laboratory too.

Protein - it's the polymer of amino acids which contain carbon, and isn't carbonates or bicarbonates, cyanides etc.

Carbohydrates and sugars are also similar to proteins which contain carbon and isn't the exceptions. So they are also the organic compounds.

But salt, commonly table salt is sodium chloride which doesn't contain carbon, so is Inorganic.
