halobacterium salinarum would be classified as halophilic as to salt needs.
how would you classify halobacterium salinarum as to salt needs?
halophilic
halobacterium salinarum is an extremely halophilic marine gram-negative obligate aerobic archaeon. despite its name, this is not a bacterium, but rather a member of the domain archaea. it is found in salted fish, hides, hypersaline lakes, and salterns. as these salterns reach the minimum salinity limits for extreme halophiles, their waters become purple or reddish color due to the high densities of halophilic archaea. "h. salinarum" has also been found in high-salt food such as salt pork, marine fish, and sausages. the ability of "h. salinarum" to survive at such high salt concentrations has led to its classification as an extremophile.
