Bacteria Temperature Preferences

Biology Professor (Twitter: @DrWhitneyHolden) describes the 5 classifications of bacteria based on temperature preferences, including psychrophiles, psychrotrophs, mesophiles, thermophiles, and hyperthermophiles. Examples are given of places where you might find each class, including bacteria that infect humans or spoil food.  Great for MCAT Biology Review!  For more information on how bacteria can be classified by oxygen preferences, see Biology Professor's video: Video
