Solution

The correct option is A Bacteria
Bacteria can survive in extremely hot and salty conditions. This is because they have a high tolerance for slat. Apart from this, they also have a high tolerance for heat. So they could be seen easily in hot water springs, where survival of any other organism becomes impossible.
So, option A is the correct answer.
