Answer: pH 5 Acidic environment.

Explanation:

The fungi grows best in the acidic environment, this is because the fungi grows in a moist, warm and darker environment.

The fungus grows at lower pH. When the fungal species was grown in the laboratory conditions then under low pH, the fungal species grow more properly.

Hence, the best environment for the growth of fungus is pH 5.

Answer:

The correct answer is b. 5

Explanation:

Fungus are more likely to grow at low pH and so they love acidic environment to grow and live. The organisms who love to grow in an acidic environment are called acidophiles.

The optimum pH at which fungi like to grow is between 5 to 6. Fungi growth condition is different from most of the microorganisms because micro-organisms tend to grow well at and above pH 7. So bacteria basically like alkaline environment to live.

When pH decreases from 7 to 5 the growth of fungus in increased by many folds which shows that fungus like to grow at low pH. Therefore the correct answer is b. 5

gladu [14]

Answer:

Mammals

Birds

Explanation:

The Organs which perform same function and looks but they are different in their structure from each other are called as analogous organs.

Organs are the structures that made up of two or more tissues organized to carry out a particular function.

An organ or bone that appears in different animals with same function is called homologous structure.

Homologous organs have similar origin n basic structure but perform different functions in different organisms. Analogous organs are different in basic structure but perform same functions.

Different animals have bones that appear very similar in form or function and seem to be related.

Examples

The arm of a human, the wing of a bird or a bat, the leg of a dog and the flipper of a dolphin or whale are homologous structures. They are different and have a different purpose, but they are similar sharing common traits.

The forelimbs of all mammals have the same basic bone structure.The structures are similar because they evolved to do the same job.  For example, the wings of bats and birds.

Stels [109]

Answer:

The correct answer is  b. He determined that DNA contains four nitrogenous bases.

Explanation:

Levene was an American biochemist who studied the structure of DNA in the early 1900s and in 1920 he found that DNA consists of four nitrogenous bases that are Adenine, Guanine, Thymine, Cytosine.

He also found deoxyribose sugar and phosphate group and said that nucleotide is the basic unit of DNA which contains a ribose sugar with attached nitrogenous base and phosphate group.

He also concludes that an equal amount of adenine, guanine, thymine, and cytosine makes the DNA which is now known as tetranucleotide hypothesis. So the correct answer is b. He determined that DNA contains four nitrogenous bases.
