The main reason for the difference in the mass extinction occurring today and previously is the pace of the current extinction. The extinction is taking place globally and involves hundreds of species at the same time. In less than 50 years, we have lost numerous species. In contrast to this, previously during the mass extinction, only a few species were lost, and other managed to survive. But, not the status is opposite due to the magnitude of the extinction.
A semipermeable membrane is a membrane that allows certain substances to pass through it. The most accurate definition is the third choice, "It is a barrier with tiny openings that let some, but not all, materials pass through." hope this helps:)
Answer: O cytoplasm: protects cell structures
Explanation:
PCB (Poly-Chlorinated Biphenyls) are the major contaminants of groundwater that must be removed before circulating water among people. PCBs can also enter the food chain by contaminating aquatic organisms. Working on PCBs and removing it from water is a challenging process. Various processes are involved in removal of these contaminants from the groundwater. Among these one is the use of microorganisms. Microbial process is a potent bioremediating method.
DEGRADATION OF PCBs through microorganisms is an effective process as PCBs are susceptible to degradation. PCBs are transformed into smaller parts by microorganisms that make them more soluble and easily degradable.
