Answer:

Plague is caused by Yersinia pestis. It is unicellular and placed in the bacteria domain.

Explanation:

Plague is caused by bacteria Yersinia pestis , a zoonotic bacteria usually found in the small mammals and their fleas. It is a gram-negative, nonmotile, rod-shaped, coccobacillus bacteria, with no spores. It is a facultative anaerobic organism that can infect humans via the Oriental rat flea.Y. pestis was discovered in 1894 by Alexandre Yersin, a Swiss/French physician and bacteriologist from the Pasteur Institute, during an epidemic of the plague in Hong Kong. Yersin was a member of the Pasteur school of thought. Kitasato Shibasaburō, a German-trained Japanese bacteriologist who practised Koch's methodology, was also engaged at the time in finding the causative agent of the plague. However, Yersin actually linked plague with Y. pestis. named Pasteurella pestis in the past, the organism was renamed Yersinia pestis in 1944.

If a root cap was damaged, how might this negatively affect the plant? Explain your reasoning.
Vadim26 [7]
If a root cap was damaged, it might start to negatively affect the plant by causing it to grow randomly, not exceed to its usual uses, and more. For understanding, the root cap protects the growing in other plants such as their tips. If this is damaged, it can cause the plants to form differently or damaged as well.
