If a bacterial cell do not contain pili, it would not affect the formation of bacterial colonies. If bacterial cells, do not contain any pili, the foundation or formation of any bacterial colonies within the host or a living organism will not be affected. A Pili is used to attach bacterial cells to surfaces or other living cells.

Answer:  

Pili is the protein structure formed outside the cell wall of bacteria. The main function of pili is the bacterial cell attachment. It facilitate bacteria to attach at a substrate to derive nourishment. Also, helps in sexual reproduction in bacteria by forming the sex pili between two bacterial cells and allows the exchange of genes between these cells. Bacterial colonies can form on aquatic as well as in terrestrial habitat. Bacteria to hold the substrate properly pili is required. There are chances that bacterial colonies wash away from their substrate or get removed because of external environmental consequences. Therefore, absence of pili will affect colony formation.

Explain one adaptation that helps grasses succeed in grasslands
ehidna [41]

Answer:

Basal meristems

Explanation:

Meristems are the portion of plants able to generate any kind of new tissues. Therefore, the way plants keep their meristems protected is related to climate adaptation.

Grasslands tend to be arid ecosystems, so grasses have developed basal meristems, meaning they spend the dry season very close or under soil, where water evaporates slowlier than above surface, until wet season allows meristems to generate new stems and leaves.

This disposition is also useful in cases of fire and grazing, which are also frecuent in grasslands.

Exercise
Goryan [66]

I just took the test this would be the correct answer.  

 

In the Precipitation Map of Washington, the dark orange section indicates low rainfall in the region. Using the Shaded Relief Map of Washington, you can tell that this area is flat, possibly a plain. These regions typically don't receive a lot of rain. The Precipitation Map of Washington has areas that are dark purple and dark green. This indicates that they both receive a lot of rainfall every year. If you look at these areas on the Shaded Relief Map of Washington, you can tell that these areas with a lot of rainfall are mountainous.  

On the Precipitation Map of Washington, purple/blue means more rain, and orange/red means less rain. The Shaded Relief Map of Washington shows mountains (brown), valleys, plateaus, and canyons. Areas that are flat are smooth on the map. Areas with steep slopes and mountains look rougher.

Explanation: This was on my feedback from the test as possible answers.
