Answer:
The correct answer is: b. lightening of media in the unsealed tube only.
Explanation:
- According to the question, the bacteria can undergo only aerobic respiration, that is it can produce its energy, that is, ATP, or adenosine triphosphate, only in the presence of oxygen.
- The unsealed tube allowed air or oxygen to pass into it which can be used by the bacteria for its respiration. In the process, it will produce acid that will cause the media colour to lighten.
- The sealed tube do not allow any oxygen to pass into it. As the given bacteria can undergo only aerobic respiration but not anaerobic respiration, in absence of oxygen it will not be able to undergo respiration and produce energy and acid. Hence, the media colour will remain unchanged.
- The control tube is used to check the sterility of the media.
It's referred to as the area's climate
The drinking bird works by evaporation of ether inside its body and evaporation of water outside its head. The liquid ether in its body evaporates at room temperature. As it vaporizes it creates an increased pressure inside the body, which pushes liquid ether up the tube to the head.
The first law of thermodynamics, also known as law of Conservation of Energy, states that energy cannot be created or destroyed in an isolated system. The second law of thermodynamics states that the entropy of any isolated system always increases.
