The term used to describe organisms that can survive in severe conditions is extremophiles. Extremophiles are able to thrive in environments with extreme temperatures, pH levels, salinity, pressure, or other challenging conditions that are typically uninhabitable for most forms of life. Examples of extremophiles include bacteria living in hot springs, organisms in deep-sea hydrothermal vents, and lichens in arid deserts.
