The substance that helps keep the integrity of the bacterial cell wall intact is known as the peptidoglycan. Others also refer to is it as murein or mucopeptide. The bacterial cell wall is necessary for survival because of the high internal pressure present inside of bacteria. Under normal conditions, if the cell wall is removed the bacterial cell will burst.

The peptidoglycan is a layer that can be used to distinguish gram positive bacteria from gram negative ones. G(+) bacteria have a thick layer of this while G(-) have a thinner ones.

Answer:

Part A: The process of sexual reproduction is important because by this process organisms with varied genetic characteristics can be formed. Crossing over and independent assortment allow individuals to be born which are not alike to another and their parents. As a result, genetic diversity is produced.

Part B:

The process 1 is meiosis. The process 3 is development by mitosis.

The reproductive organs form sperm and egg by the process of meiosis. During this process, the number of chromosomes is reduced so that the number of chromosomes of an individual can be maintained.

The zygote converts into an embryo in a process called germinal development. The zygote replicates by mitosis to form into an embryo.

inna [77]

Answer: the rabbit

Explanation:

In ecology, biomass refers to the mass of organisms living within a specific region at a time. Biomass is measured and usually described as:

  • the total mass of the organisms within a community
  • the average masses per unit area

Typically, more numerous organisms, such as producers, have a higher average biomass. This may include plants, animals or microbes such as bacteria and fungi. In terrestrial environments, biomass is distributed in pyramid form; the carnivorous hawk preys on rabbits and birds, which are nearer to the base of the pyramid- each predator population would have a lower biomass than its prey.

The birds weigh 100 grams while the rabbit weighs 150 grams.The rabbit has a higher total mass
