<span>The correct answer is B. Rhizoids absorb water and nutrients, while fruiting bodies release spores.</span>
<span>
Rhizoids of Fungi are similar to root hairs on vascular land plants. Rhizoids, release digestive enzymes and absorb digested organic material, so it is a feeding organ.</span>
<span>Fruiting body or sporocarp is a structure that is part of the sexual phase of a fungal life cycle and it contains spore-producing structures.</span>
Answer:
The correct answer is a. Pseudomonas aeruginosa would be colorless on EMB
Explanation:
Pseudomonas aeruginosa is a gram-positive bacteria that is rod shape. It shows a few nutritional requirements and can even adapt to those conditions in which the other bacteria can be adapt.
It is non-fermentative bacteria so it does not ferment lactose and other carbohydrates. As EMB agar contains lactose and some dye, therefore, the lactose fermenting bacteria ferment the lactose and show good growth and color change.
But as Pseudomonas aeruginosa is a non-fermentative bacteria it does not ferment lactose and does not show any color and forms a colorless colony. Therefore the correct answer is a.
Answer:
<em>The total amount of energy transferred during photosynthesis for this ecosystem equals</em><em> 260,000 kcal/m2/yr.</em>
Explanation:
To answer this question, we need to know that
- gross primary productivity (GPP) = energy captured and converted into chemical energy during photosynthesis
- net primary productivity (NPP) = difference between GPP and respiration rate
So, to calculate GPP we need to sum NPP to Respiration rate. This if,
NPP = 165,000 kcal/m2/yr
R = 95,000 kcal/m2/yr
NPP = GPP – Respiration
Then,
GPP = NPP + R
GPP = 165,000 kcal/m2/yr + 95,000 kcal/m2/yr
GPP = 260,000 kcal/m2/yr
I believe the best answer would be A: Community. This is because all those living things and the pond play a part for each other and in doing so they make a community.
