If a lake where bacteria reside were to freeze, bacteria could survive by __________.
Lynna [10]
There are bacteria, like the Pseudomonas fluorescens and Marimonas protea, that can reside even in frozen surfaces. They do it by entering a dormant state where they wait patiently to be free from ice and grow again.
