How do spores survive unfavourable conditions?
Fungi survive in unfavorable conditions by parasitism.Parasitism means an ability of an animal to obtain nutrients from other animals by using them as hosts. Also Fungi have the ability to survive in climatic extremes and in long periods of drought, because they have been specially designed to be resilient.
Can microorganisms grow?
Yes, and to survive and reproduce they must grow.
Do microorganisms differ in pH requirement for growth?
No, all microorganisms will not grow optimally at a neutral pH. Several types of fungi, for example, grow better in an acidic environment.
What conditions are needed for the growth of microorganisms esp fungal infections?

What is the benefit of having hydrochloric acid in your stomach?
Hydrochloric acid reduces the pH of the stomach fluids to 1.5-2. At such a low pH, most microorganisms are unable to survive. So, when we ingest microorganisms with our food, they are killed by the acidic conditions in our stomach. That is why, people don't fall sick all the time.
Can microorganisms grow?

In which three principal Ares of the environment can microorganisms be found and why?
Microorganisms can be found in aquatic ecosystems, terrestrial ecosystems(in the soil) and in animals and plants as well as in humans. The microorganisms need a conducive environment for their sustenance, they need all the three ecological niche in the host or habitat. They also need nutrients for survival. The abiotic conditions such as temperature must be favourable. In water the organisms that have all these conditions thrive well. Algae, phytoplankton and some bacterial and fungi are found in abundance. In the soil the favourable conditions also encourage the growth bacteria of nitrogen fixation in legumes andfungal mycorrhizal cynobacteria in Azolla. In humans viruses , pathogens, commensals and fungi such as taenia pedis survive under the prevailing conditions and multiply themselves if not controlled.
