One of the most resilient organisms known are tardigrades ("water bears"). Tardigrades can go into a hibernation mode - called the tun state - one that is more akin to "suspended animation" whereby it can survive temperatures from -253°C to 151°C, as well as exposure to x-rays, and vacuum conditions. When you place tardigrades in perfluorocarbon fluid (again while hibernating), at a pressure of 600 MPa, (that's almost 6,000 times atmospheric pressure at sea level) they emerge from the experience just fine . Even the bacterium Deinococcus radiodurans, the most radiation resistant organism known, only achieves this resistance under some conditions such as fast growth and in nutrient-rich medium.

yes, how do you think plants survive? There is some precipitation and even light rainfall, but it is just a few inches. Consequently, only the hardiest plant and animal species, needing the least amount of water survive. in many parts of the desert, there are no readily available water sources for humans.

Which colors of betta fish are the hardiest?

Thats kinda like asking what color of human hair is the hardiest. Blue and red are dominant traits like brunette hair, while the rarer colors are like natural blondes. If they are well bred (not overbred) and they have a lower maintenance tail type (veiltail, crow, or plakat), then color doesn't matter.
