| Extremophiles living in very hot temperatures like those in hot springs are called thermophiles. |
| Notable groups of Archaea include thermophiles and hyperthermophiles, halophiles, and methanogens. |
| As described above, the molecular machinery of thermophiles works in ways we don't yet completely understand. |
| Organisms that thrive in hot environments, known as thermophiles, would have fared better than anything that needed lower temperatures, says Sumner. |
| For example, thermophiles are organisms that live under conditions of extreme high temperature. |
| The genome of halobacterium and thermophiles will give insight into new sorts of biochemistry. |
