If a bacterium uses ammonia as an energy as well as electron source, it is classified as lithotrophic chemotrophic.

<h3>Descriptive terms for lithotrophic chemotrophic:</h3>

Humans, fungi, and also many prokaryotes are chemotrophs that get their energy from organic chemicals. Lithotrophs are chemotrophs that obtain energy from inorganic substances such as hydrogen sulfide (H2S) as well as reduced iron. Lithography is a microbiological phenomenon that is unique in the globe.

<h3>What is the difference between chemoautotrophs and chemolithotrophs?</h3>

Chemotrophs are creatures that get energy from their surroundings by oxidizing electron sources. These compounds might well be organic (chemoorganotrophs) or inorganic (chemoorganotrophs) (chemolithotrophs). The term chemotroph is used in contrast to phototroph, which uses solar energy.

sertanlavr [38]

A) .was immediately accepted

Explanation:

The theory of plate tectonics was immediately recognized as the explanation for the moving continents. It provided a more scientific background as why continents drift apart and the seafloor keeps spreading.

  • The theory explains that the earth is broken up into series of slabs called lithosphere which moves on the weak, ductile and fluid asthenosphere.
  • The movement of part of the earth mantle provided the mechanism through which the lithosphere moves. This is now known as the mantle convection.
  • This theory provided a scientific mechanism through which the plate moves and seafloor spreads.
  • It was immediately accepted when the theory was propounded by Alfred Holmes in the 1930s
