Organisms That Can Grow on Substances with Very Low Moisture

Question

Organisms that can grow on substances with very low moisture content are
A)protozoans.
B)fungi.
C)helminths.
D)algae.

Accepted Answer

Fungi are well-known for their ability to grow on substrates with low moisture content. They produce hyphae which help them to extract moisture from the surrounding environment, allowing them to thrive in conditions that are inhospitable to other organisms. Protozoans, helminths, and algae typically require higher moisture content to survive and reproduce.
