Answer:

The microbes thriving in acidic environments are termed as acidophiles, and these range from eukaryotes to bacteria and archaea, which are mainly found in diverse acidic surroundings like sulfuric geysers and pools, in the human stomach, and in the regions that get polluted by acid mine drainage.  

The mentioned case is not entirely correct as the protons found in the acidic surroundings are not utilized for the generation of ATP as they are not originating from within the cell. In order to sustain their internal acidic pH, the acidophiles exhibit adaptations like the presence of the negatively charged proteins on the surfaces of their membranes so that they can prevent deterioration due to acidic surroundings.

Survival of the fittest is talking about when you have traits that will help you, you are more likely to live rather than not having those traits. For example, a bird that swims a lot has webbed feet so it has a better chance of surviving then a bird who does not have webbed feet

Choose the FALSE statement.
tekilochka [14]

Answer:

The false statement is C. The hamstrings are prime movers of hip (thigh) flexion and knee (leg) flexion.

Explanation:

The hamstrings are also called ischiosural or simply, femoral. They are the powerful and voluminous musculature that is located in the back of the thigh and that performs its action mainly on the knee, flexing it and also rotating it.

The hamstrings are made up of three muscles: the biceps femoris, semitendinosus and semimembranous. In addition, the tendons are located at the back of the thigh and cross the hip and knee joints. As the hamstrings cross two joints, they have two actions, including knee flexion and hip extension, as well as hyperextension.
