👉 Actinotus is a type of bacteria that primarily lives on the surface of rocks in freshwater environments. It can be found in areas like rivers, lakes, and streams where it feeds on microorganisms and decomposes organic matter. The bacterium's cell wall is composed mainly of cellulose, which provides structural support to the cell while allowing for movement through the water. Actinotus prefers acidic pH values and is able to grow rapidly under these conditions.
