I believe it is D. More African elephants today naturally lack tusks compared to the elephant populations 100 years ago, because big game hunters sought elephants for ivory.
Answer:supports the body
facilitates movement
protects internal organs
produces blood cells
stores and releases minerals
Explanation:
The skeletal system in animals helps in their movement, support and to maintain their shape.In humans ,it consists of bones,which works closely with the muscular system.unlike worms and arthropods that have hydrostatic and exoskeleton respectively, humans have endoskeleton.the bones have the following functions;
*It allows the animal move . The skeleton provides support for the body and through the flexible joints ,the body is able to move
*The skeleton protects the internal organs of the body by protecting them against impact.for examples,the ribs protect the lungs and the skull protects the brain.
*Certain cells in the bone produce immune cell and important components of the bone
*The bones also regulate the level of calcium in the blood
A Negative stain such as India ink or Congo red-Look for the presence of a capsule.
This stain method is usually used to stain the area around the microorganism.
B The Gram stain-Divide bacteria into two groups based on cell wall structure (thick vs. thin).
This is type of differential staining used to distinguish organisms based on their staining properties. Gram + and Gram- bacteria stain different because of different cell wall structure.
C The Ziehl-Neelsen Acid-fast stain- Identify bacteria with waxy cell walls such as: Mycobacterium tuberculosis (the cause of TB).
This is also differential staining method which uses heat and phenol to derive dye into the cells with lipid-rich walls.
D Simple stain with a basic dye-Stain microbes a bright color to make it easier to see them in bright field microscopy.
One dye is used in simple staining in order to determinate the size, shape and arrangement of the cells.
E The Schaeffer-Fulton Endospore stain-Identify Bacillus or Clostridium species, such as the causative agents of anthrax, botulism, tetanus and gangrene.
This is a special type of staining only used for the bacteria that can form endospores. Bacteria are first treated with heat and then with malachite green, which is very strong stain that can penetrate endospores.
The answer to 3 is B. Moon
Bird droppings that contain seeds from a different location" is the correct answer. Sometimes when seeds from different areas are ingested, the genetic material is passed on.
