Fireflies emit flashes of light because of chemical reactions, which occur in their abdomens. The rate of the chemical reactions

determines the rate at which fireflies flash. As the reactions occur faster, the fireflies flash quicker. What can you infer about fireflies

Since the rate of flashing depends on the rate of reaction, it means that fireflies will flash slower during cold weather.

<h3>How does temperature affect rate of reactions?</h3>

Temperature affects the rate of reaction such that reactions are faster at high temperatures and slower at low temperatures.

Thus, since the rate of flashing in fireflies depends on the rate of reaction, cold temperature means that the rate of flashing will be low as compared to warm temperature.

In other words, fireflies will flash lower during cold weather and vice versa.

LekaFEV [45]

Answer:

Opportunistic, endogenous pathogen

Explanation:

Opportunistic infection is an infection that is caused by the microbes that are otherwise the component of one's own normal microbiota.  Under particular conditions, the microbes become pathogenic and cause infection. The pathogen-derived from one's own microbiota is called endogenous pathogen.

According to the given information, <em>Candida albicans </em>is a part of the microflora of mouth but becomes pathogenic under certain conditions. In healthy individuals, they do not produce disease as their overgrowth is suppressed by other microbiota and other host resistance mechanisms. The infection occurs only in those individuals with predisposing factors such as weakened immune system or after consumption of antibacterial medications that disturb the normal microbiota and immune competency. This makes it an opportunistic, endogenous pathogen.

How is RNA different from DNA
xz_007 [3.2K]

DNA and RNA have completely different purposes in us. DNA stores and transfers genetic information (Eye and hair colour, skin colour, etc..). RNA codes amino acids and makes proteins. DNA is double stranded while RNA is single stranded. DNA uses adenine, thymine, cytosine, and guanine; while RNA uses adenine, cytosine, uracil, and guanine.
