Did you know that dormant bacteria within extreme environments prolong their survival by breaking down the components of air? 🌬️ . A #MonashScience study was able to show for the first time that dormant bacteria can subsist on atmospheric concentrations of carbon monoxide. . While carbon monoxide is toxic 😷 to most organisms, these geothermal microbes don’t just tolerate it, they’re able to thrive on it - redefining our knowledge of the minimal energy requirements necessary to sustain life! 🤯 Discover more via the link in our Bio 🔝

#ScienceSunday - They are invisible to the human eye 👀, but they are there – millions of microbes in our beaches, breaking down the rubbish in our waters. 🌊 But did you know they can degrade organic matter regardless of whether oxygen is present? 🌬️ In most ecosystems, the types of bacteria present change depending on whether oxygen is available but in sands, their highly flexible microbial communities are remarkably able to change their capabilities in order to cope with ever-changing oxygen levels. 🤔 Read more via the link in our Bio ⬆️
