Ok 6/10 I'm dumb !!!

vaccarellomichele, Certain bacteria, like Clostridium perfringens, can form spores, which are dormant, highly resistant structures that protect the bacteria from harsh conditions, including boiling. Thermophiles, bacteria that have adapted to live in very hot environments, such as hot springs and hydrothermal vents, and can survive boiling temperatures.

margaret V. , That is not true. Certain bacteria, like Clostridium perfringens, can form spores, which are dormant, highly resistant structures that protect the bacteria from harsh conditions, including boiling. Thermophiles, bacteria that have adapted to live in very hot environments, such as hot springs and hydrothermal vents, and can survive boiling temperatures.

margaret V. , there are bacteria which can live in all conditions on earth, including super hot thermal vents in oceans. Boiling water is much lower temp than those.
