Answer:
Entner-Doudoroff (ED) pathway is the pathway is a series of chain reaction which converts the glucose molecule to pyruvate unlike in the glycolysis where the glucose is converted to phosphoenolpyruvate.
The enzymes used in the ED pathway are different from the enzymes used in the PPP pathway and glycolysis.
The pathways are used by the gram-negative bacteria and archaea and few gram-positive bacteria.
The ED pathway produces only 1 ATP, 1 NADPH and 1 NADH therefore the microbes which use this process are aerobic microbes.
The ED pathway is used by the microbes which lack the enzymes for the glycolysis process like Rhizobium, Azotobacter, Pseudomonas and others.
Since this is an alternative method to produce energy molecule which lacks the glycolytic enzymes therefore this is an advantage to certain microbes.
Correct answer: B). Easy to cultivate and fertile
The prairie is grassland soils that possess a dark colored surface and these soil are highly fertile in nature. These soils are rich in minerals like calcium and magnesium.
The dark color of soil comes from the added organic matter to the soil that comes from the roots of prairie plants. They are formed in the areas that are too dry to be forested, but too wet to be desert.
Hence, the correct answer would be option B.

Answer:
Funji
Explanation:
Funji is one of the decomposers and also grow by themselves when the food has out of date or expired.
Answer:
a. different species of birds can divide ecological spaces between them my matching the morphology to the food source.
Explanation:
Beak morphology allows the birds to select the suitable food type. The various species of Galapagos finches differ from each other in beak shape and size irrespective of their origin from common seed-eating stock.
The modification of beak shape and size into several directions allowed the finches to occupy the available empty ecological niches with respect to food types.
Diversification also reduced the competition between them and allowed the finches to colonize various ecological niches in accordance with their respective beak morphology.
