Tardigrades: Under stressed conditions such as extreme dryness or temperature, the Tardigrade (Water Bear) practices several forms of cryptobiosis, a state in which metabolic activity is slowed or halted.
Image: Tardigrade enlarged. Size - about 1.5 mm long.
Radiotrophic Fungi: The fungi can be found in extreme environments due to their ability to survive and grow in the presence of radiation. They have been found in the aftermath of a nuclear accident and in outer space. Lately, it had been found at Chernobyl, in the USSR. Years after the nuclear power plant disaster, the fungi were found on the deserted nuclear reactors. There is evidence that the fungi are eating up the radioactive material. Isn’t that amazing?
