Advantages of being an extremophile

Biology
1 answer:
horsena [70]3 years ago
4 0
Extremophiles are organisms that can live and thrive in extreme environments, such places can have high pressure and temperature, just like the organisms in hydrothermal vents. The benefits of being an extremophile is less risk for predation since not much predators can live in extreme environment; there will also be less competition in term of food source.

In tomato's, red fruit (R) is dominant over yellow fruit (r). What is the probability that an offspring of plants that are heter
mihalych1998 [28]

Answer:

1 out of 4

or

25%

Explanation:

First we draw a Punnett Square for this:

          R      r

   R    RR    Rr

   r     Rr     rr

So here we have the following genotypes possible for this cross:

RR = homozygous dominant

Rr = heterozygous dominant

rr = homozygous recessive

As you can see out of the four (4) possible outcomes, one (1) of them is rr. So the probability is 1 out of 4 chances or 25%.

The three positions that nations occupy in the world system are________
Archy [21]

Answer: Option A

The three positions that nations occupy in the world system are core, periphery, and semi-periphery.

Explanation:

World system is a multidisciplinary method to social change and world history which is use stress the system of the world as a unit of social analysis. It is an international system that divide nations of the word according to their labor into core, periphery and semi -periphery. The core have high skill labor and high production cost compare to the others. The core countries dominate and use the periphery countries. The periphery countries also depend on the core countries for capital.

4.4-1 Anaerobic Respiration
Vesna [10]

For lactic acid fermentation, the correct options are:

  • pyruvate
  • hydrogen
  • NADH
  • lactic acid
  • Lactic acid
  • pyruvate
  • mitochondria

For ethanol fermentation, the correct options are:

  • pyruvate
  • CO₂
  • acetyl CoA
  • acetyl CoA
  • acetaldehyde
  • Acetaldehyde
  • hydrogen
  • NADH
  • ethanol

<h3>What is a anaerobic respiration?</h3>

Anaerobic respiration is respiration which occurs in the absence of oxygen.

Oxygen is used as an electron acceptor during respiration. However, when oxygen is absent or insufficient, other molecules are used as electron acceptors in order to produce energy.

Anaerobic respiration in large organisms may result in the formation of lactate known as lactic acid fermentation.

In lactic acid fermentation, after glycolysis, the two pyruvate molecules receive hydrogen atoms from NADH creating lactic acid. Lactic acid can be converted back into pyruvate in the liver. The pyruvate can then enter into the mitochondria and cellular respiration, can proceed.

On the other hand, anaerobic respiration in microorganisms produce ethanol and is known as ethanol fermentation.

After glycolysis, the two pyruvate molecules lose a CO₂ atom, creating acetyl CoA. The acetyl CoA atom combines with hydrogen to form acetaldehyde. Acetaldehyde receives a hydrogen atom from NADH, resulting in the production of ethanol.

In conclusion, anaerobic respiration can occur either as a lactate fermentation or ethanol fermentation.

In giraffes, long necks (n), long legs (l), dark spots (d), and the ability to digest maize (m) are all dominant traits. what po
diamong [38]
<span>A long-necked, short-legged, light-spotted, maize-digesting giraffe could have a genotype of NN (or Nn), ll, dd, and MM (or Mm). Due to the fact that long necks are dominant, the giraffe would only need one dominant allele to have the phenotype. Therefore the giraffe could have two dominant alleles or one dominant and one recessive. Because long legs and dark spots are dominant, the giraffe must have two recessive alleles for each of these traits. As for maize digestion, the giraffe only needs one dominant allele to have the trait, so they could be MM or Mm.</span>
