ophile.

NISA [10]2 years ago
4 0

The microbes present in the experiment were:

S. cerevisiae

S. epidermis

A way of categorizing microbes is according to the environment that they need to live in. In other words, we can classify them as isotonic, halotolerant and halophile.

If we put these two microbes in solutions of increasing concentrations, 1%, 7% and 15%, we will see that:

  • S. cerevisiae only grows when it is in a 1% solution.
  • S. epidermis only grows when it is in a 1% and 7% solution.

In conclusion, S.cerevisiae prefers an isotonic environment. S. epidermis is halotolerant since it can grow in a more hypertonic environment. As none of them grows in a highly hypertonic solution, neither of them are halophile.

Later, when pollution was reduced, the light-coloured form again predominated. Industrial melanism in the peppered moth  was an early test of Charles Darwin natural selection  in action, and remains as a classic example in the teaching of evolution.
