What is the likely source of organism that grow best at 37 degree Celsius?

Organisms that grow best at 37 degrees Celsius are likely to be mesophiles, which thrive at moderate temperatures. These organisms are commonly found in environments such as the human body, as 37 degrees Celsius is the normal body temperature for mammals. Examples include many bacteria and some fungi.


What is the average temperature for the chaparral biome?

There are many different desert biomes, and the average temperature for each varies. Hot deserts have an average daytime temperature of 100 degrees Fahrenheit, while cold deserts have an average temperature of 28 degrees Fahrenheit.


Why was 37 degrees Celsius the optimal incubation temperature?

37 degrees Celsius is the optimal incubation temperature for many bacteria because it mimics the average human body temperature, providing ideal conditions for bacterial growth and metabolism. This temperature allows bacteria to thrive and reproduce most efficiently, making it a common choice for incubation in microbiology studies.


Can Organisms thrive in temperatures as high as 235 degrees Fahrenheit?

No, most organisms cannot thrive in temperatures as high as 235 degrees Fahrenheit. Such high temperatures denature proteins and disrupt cellular structures, leading to cell death. Extremophiles, however, are organisms that have adapted strategies to live in these extreme conditions.


What is the normal body temperature of a healthy human adult?

Body temperatures vary, even within humans. The adult average is lower than 37° C, and skin temperature can vary from around 32° to 35° C (90° to 95° F), and will be colder when losing heat to the environment. The body temperatures of mammals range from around 97° to over 103° Fahrenheit. Birds have average temperatures of around 105° Fahrenheit. The phi point between the freezing temperature (32° F) and the boiling temperature (212° F) of water is 100.8° F, or 38.2° Centigrade. Take the phi point from the other end of the scale of temperature and you arrive at 143°, which is about the temperature required to kill bacteria. (Generally rounded and stated as 140° in most literature.) Interestingly enough, if you take the phi point or 0.618 of 37 degrees centigrade, which is the average human body temperature, you get 23 degrees centigrade or 73 degrees Fahrenheit, a "room" temperature that many would consider to be just about perfect for indoor comfort and outdoor enjoyment.
