Bacteria are prokaryotes, fungi and protists are eukaryotic organisms and viruses are not living.

<h3>In what ways it is possible to distinguish prokaryotes from eukaryotes?</h3>

Bacteria (e.g., E coli) are prokaryotic organisms whose cells don't have nuclei or membrane bound organelles, reproduce by asexual ways such as binary fission, and they are beneficial as descomposers.

Some common diseases caused by bacteria include tetanus (Clostridium tetani), pneumonia (Klebsiella pneumoniae), cholera (Vibrio cholerae), etc.

Moreover, protists (e.g. algae) and Fungi (e.g. Saccharomyces cerevisiae) are eukaryotic organisms that have cell nuclei and organelles, can reproduce by asexual reproduction, can perform photosynthesis (algae) or acts as decomposers (fungi).

Some common diseases caused by protists/protozoans include malaria (Plasmodium), sleeping sickness (Trypanosoma), etc.

Some common diseases caused by fungi include aspergillosis (Aspergillus), candidiasis (Candida albicans), etc.

Finally, viruses are not living because they need a host to survive and are also useful as vectors to design gene therapy techniques.

Some common diseases caused by viruses include AIDS (HIV retrovirus), dengue fever (Flaviviridae viruses), etc.

Bacteria are used to produce insulin and other natural medications, viruses are used as carriers for the treatment of diseases,  protozoans can enhance the fertility of soils and fungi are employed in the preparation of foods.

In conclusion, bacteria are prokaryotes, fungi and protists are eukaryotic organisms and viruses are not living.

The muscles in the leg are considered long muscles. As the muscles in the leg contract and relax they work to provide movement.
Maurinko [17]

Answer: if the upper leg muscles were damaged, (You would not be able to extend the leg straight).

Explanation:

The upper leg muscles, which can also be called the thigh, are made up of three sets of muscles which include:

--> the hamstring muscles: These are located at the BACK of the thigh. They are made up of three long muscles which includes the semimembranous muscle, the semitendinosus muscle, and the biceps femoris muscle.

--> the quadriceps muscles: They are located at the FRONT of the thigh. They consists of four individual muscles which includes the three vastus muscles and the rectus femoris.

--> the adductor muscles: They are located at the medial compartment of the thigh and is consist of the following muscles: gracilis, obturator externus, adductor brevis, adductor longus and adductor magnus.

The quadriceps, hamstrings and adductor muscles work together to straighten (extend) and bend (flex) the leg. Therefore when there is damage to the upper leg muscles, you would not be able to extend the leg straight.

Do you think water is an inexhaustible resource
Anna007 [38]
I think water is indeed an inexhaustible resource. We can keep using it, but it will always come back as rain, snow, ice etc. Water energy sources are one of the biggest renewable energy sources in the world.
