Important Questions on Biological Classification


















Bacteria are grouped under four categories based on their shape. Study the given figure and identify A. B. C and D?


\nArchaebacteria differ from other bacteria in having a different cell wall structure and this feature is responsible for their survival in extreme conditions.
\n\nArchaebacteria are divided into three groups - methanogens, halophiles, and thermoacidophiles.
\n\nMethanogens: These bacteria are of marshy habitats. They are capable of converting CO2, methanol, and formic acid into methane so named methanogens. These methanogens are present in the guts of several ruminant animals such as cows and buffaloes, and they are responsible for the production of methane (biogas) from the dung of these animals. These are chemoautotrophs.
\nExamples: Methanococcus, Methanobacterium, etc.
