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

Law Incorporation [45]

Answer:

The words depict the phenomenon of cell division in prokaryotes and eukaryotes.

The possible concept map that could be drawn from these words could be:

Number 1:

Cell cycle in a eukaryote occurs through the process of mitosis (or meiosis) and chromosomes duplicate by this process. Cytokinesis separates the two daughter cells by separating the cytoplasm of the two cells.

Number 2:

Cell cycle in a prokaryote involves the method of binary fission.

2. When would a recessive trait be seen in an organism?

IgorC [24]

Answer:

Only individuals with an aa genotype will express a recessive trait; therefore, offspring must receive one recessive allele from each parent to exhibit a recessive trait. One example of a recessive inherited trait is a smooth chin, as opposed to a dominant cleft chin.

Dmitriy789 [7]

Answer:

Yes. That was the question he was trying to answer.

Explanation:

To conduct the experiment investigating the connection between pillows and disease-causing gems, Dr. Philip needs to ask himself whether the pillows that will be used in the research contain germs that contribute to allergies in a family. This question allows Dr. Philip to have the basis to start his research and come to a conclusion about the pillows used in the research. Furthermore, the research points directly to the main point of the story.
