Thermophiles are a type of extremophile that thrive in high-temperature environments, typically above 45°C (113°F) and can survive even in temperatures exceeding 80°C (176°F). These organisms are remarkable for their adaptations that enable them to maintain cellular functions and structural integrity in conditions that would be lethal to most life forms. Their unique biochemical and genetic properties provide insights into the limits of life and the potential for life on other planets.
