<span>The trouble with identifying bacteria is that a lot of them look exactly the same. So, identifying by shape and such will only get you so far. However, two kinds of bacteria that look exactly the same under the microscope could have very different physiologists. One may be able to use a certain sugar as an energy source while the other one cannot, for example. Therefore, you can use morphology (physical characteristics) to narrow down the possibilities, but then you must complete the identification using the bacteria's physiology.</span>

VARVARA [1.3K]

Answer:fungi

Explanation:fungi are heterotrophic plants. They are organisms that lack chlorophyll,true roots,stems and leaves .as a result they cannot produce their own food .they depend on dead and decaying matter for their source of energy, thus they are saprophytes.Fungi may be Unicellular or multicellular. They consist of harlike filaments of hyphae which fuses together and forms a mass of mycellium. Common example of fungi we see around us are mushrooms. Fungi feed by secreting digestive enzymes into their substrate and they absorb the nutrients that are broken down by the enzymes. Fungi are important because they help to rid the environment of dead matter by decomposing them. Matured fungi reproduce asexually by the means of spores

The domestic dog, Canis lupus familiaris, has 39 pairs of chromosomes in each of its diploid somatic (body) cells. Therefore, th
Fed [463]

Answer:39 chromosomes

Explanation; meiosis is a form of nuclear division that produces gametes with half the number of chromosomes in the parent cell.it involves two successive divisions to produce four daughter cells.meiosis occurs only in reproductive cells.

In this case,the dog has 39 pairs of chromosomes,which is 78 chromosomes.it would undergo meiotic division to produce the half number of chromosomes,which is 39 chromosomes.this 39 haploid chromosomes are contained in the sperm cells or in the egg cells.

When the egg and sperm fuses,the diploid number of chromosomes is restored.
