The following bar graph shows the population of bacteria under different temperature ranges. What can be concluded about the bacteria from reading this graph?

Group of answer choices:

They prefer warmer temperatures to cooler temperatures.

They cannot tolerate temperatures above 50°C.

They thrive at exactly 30°C.

They prefer temperatures between 20°C and 30°C.

They prefer temperatures between 20°C and 30°C.

Explanation:

The bar graph shows the highest bacteria population to be 4 million, when the temperature is between 20 to 30 degree celsius. This is the highest bacteria population depicted by the bar graph at that temperature range.

Therefore, it follows that bacteria growth and multiplication is favored within that temperature range, as they tend to thrive better.

From the information displayed by the graph, we can conclude that: "They prefer temperatures between 20°C and 30°C."
