Answer:

Bacteria is a member of a huge group of unicellular microbes that exhibit cell walls, however, are devoid of cell organelles and an organized nucleus, it even comprises some of the species that can result in disease. Bacteria are generally differentiated into three classes, categorized by shape, that is, cylindrical, spherical, and spiral.  

A certain poison kills cells of humans by obstructing the pores in the nuclear membrane. However, the same poison would not kill the bacteria as bacteria are devoid of a nuclear membrane as it is a unicellular species, and is considered as a prokaryote.

Which factor most likely caused animals and plants in India to differ greatly from species in nearby southeast Asia?
timama [110]

Answer:

The correct answer is option d. "India was a separate continent until 45 million years ago".

Explanation:

135 million years ago, Pangea was a single continent that became separated into Laurasia in the north and Gondwana in the south. India was part of Gondwana along with Australia, South America, Antarctica and Africa. However, as a result of tectonic activity India got separated from Gondwana. This period of time at which India was a separated continent is the factor that most likely explains why animals and plants in India differ greatly from species in nearby southeast Asia. At being a separated continent, India's plants and animals go through an independent evolutionary process which made them very different an unique from nearby species.

Which of these statements best describes a similarity between photosynthesis and dissolving in the sea?
Mama L [17]

The correct answer is D. Both absorb carbon dioxide from the atmosphere.

The process of photosynthesis is carried out using atmospheric carbon dioxide by green plants. Many gases including carbon dioxide are dissolved in seawater. Some of the carbon dioxide gas remains in dissolved state but most of the carbon dioxide is reacts with water to form carbonic acid. Dissolved gases in seawater make balance with atmosphere by mixing of the surface by wind and waves. Therefore, both photosynthesis and sea water take carbon dioxide from the atmosphere.
