No, all microorganisms will not grow optimally at a neutral pH. Several types of fungi, for example, grow better in an acidic environment.
No they will not because each microorganisms grow differently and need different pH. levels. Some microorganisms will grow at a neutral pH. but expect many to not survive
yes,based on Ph,micro organisms are differentiated as alkalophiles, acidophiles
Microorganisms also prefer a certain pH level in the substance or environment in which they grow--that is, they prefer to have particular acidic qualities in their surroundings. Most microorganisms, including most human pathogens, are neutriphils, organisms that prefer a neutral pH level. Some like high pH levels, but most often, if conditions are too acidic, then the organism's enzymes break down.
Microorganisms have an optimal pH range at which growth is possible. Each also having an optimum pH at which growth is at its highest. If the environments pH is beyond the range then denaturation can occur. Denaturation is when the proteins folding properties are destructed and that usually leads to loss of biological activity due to the protein's active site no longer suitable for biological activity.

the decrease of the pH in sauerkraut is due to the succession of lactic and acetic acid microorganisms that grow on the brine solution making it acidic.
Yes, cancer cells cannot grow and live in alkaline environment, at pH 7.4 , their growth stops, and at pH 8.4 they die .
Four factors which affect the growth of microorganisms are: temperature food source for microorganisms (ie. sugar, protein, fat) the amount of microorganisms introduced to the food source ph of the food source

This all goes back to ecology. Some fit into each level of pH. They have found a space (niche) to grow and thrive in.

they produce metabolic acids
Inhibiting microbial growth is thus achieved in one of two ways: select bacteria can be either totally killed, in a process known as bactericide, or the growth of the cells can be stunted severely, in what is called a bacteriostatic process.
Acids have a pH under 7 and bases a pH over 7.

optimum pH 5-6
yes, it should be 5.5
