Extreme halophilic microorganisms, such as the red alga Dunaliella salina and the archaeal species Halobacterium in Figure \(\PageIndex{1}\), grow in hypersaline lakes such as the Great Salt Lake, which is 3.5–8 times saltier than the ocean, and the Dead Sea, which is 10 times saltier than the ocean.

Prokaryotes particularly can be found everywhere on our planet, even in the most extreme environments. Additionally, prokaryotes are very flexible metabolically, so they are able to adjust their feeding to the available natural resources. Thus the study of relationships of microorganisms, especially prokaryotes, living in communities that interact among themselves and with larger organisms (hosts), such as humans, is im

These extremophiles thrive in harsh environments, with key groups like Euryarchaeota and Crenarchaeota that exhibit unique traits. Their biochemical properties are of interest for biotechnology applications, particularly in utilizing their enzymes, which are effective in extreme conditions.
