They help scientist what extremes life can live in. For example they've found microorganisims in a crystal cave where the average tempature is 60' Celcius. They've also found microorganisims on Mars frozen in the ice.

What are the useful microorganisms in biotechnology?
most widely used bacteria (prokaryotes) are E.coli and Agrobacterium Yeast is also a widely used eukaryote.
What year was biotechnology discovered?
The field of biotechnology was first discovered in the late 19th century. The foundation of biotechnology was the discovery of enzymes which are proteins that are used to speed up chemical reactions. The two main branches of biotechnology are: Modern biotechnology which focuses on the use of tools such as genetic engineering and recombinant DNA. Traditional biotechnology which focuses on the use of naturally occurring microorganisms to create products such as beer and cheese.The discovery of biotechnology has revolutionized the sciences and has been used in many industries such as food pharmaceuticals and energy. The first patent for biotechnology was granted in 1978 which is often cited as the year biotechnology was discovered.

What do microorganisms do which help the livingthings?
Microorganisms are critical to nutrient recycling in ecosystems as they act as decomposers. As some microorganisms can fix nitrogen, they are a vital part of the nitrogen cycle, and recent studies indicate that airborne microbes may play a role in precicpitaion and weather. Microbes are also exploited by people in biotechnology, both in traditional food and beverage preperation, and in modern technologies based on genetic engineering.
