Vestigial structures don't hurt the living being. Nature chooses against just unsafe attributes. Structures that have no obvious capacity and have all the earmarks of being lingering parts from a past progenitor are called minimal structures. Cases of minimal structures incorporate the human informative supplement, the pelvic bone of a snake, and the wings of flightless flying creatures.

Alizarin yellow is a pH indicator that transitions from red to yellow when the pH falls from a value of 11 to below 10. Why is p
nydimaria [60]

Answer:

The correct answer is - acidic conditions wouldn't trigger a change in the color of Alizarin yellow.

Explanation:

The growth of E. coli generally occurs at neutral pH, however, its growth is normal at acidic conditions as well.  The change in the growth of  E. coli is not able to detect by alizarin.

The phenol red turns yellow in the presence of an acid, and the change in pH in an alkaline environment can be detected by the red color of phenol red. Growth of E.coli will grow in pH of 10-12 . But, very slowly. The color change in alizarin is also apparent at pH 10.2 to 12 only.
