A, greater than. Pressure increases the deeper you go.
I believe the correct answer is natural selection.
Natural competition and the fight for “survival of the fittest” is what pushes diversity the most.
Answer:
Nitrogen thet cannot be used by organisms. C.
Explanation:
Free nitrogen is simply molecular nitrogen (N2). Nitrogen, in its molecular form, consists of two nitrogen atoms bound together with a tripple bond. Because it is very stable, N2 is typically nonreactive, and takes a lot of energy to break them apart. Among these are the amino acids necessary for life to begin and which are the building blocks DNA is made from. Basically, any nitrogen that is in an organic compound is considered “fixed” nitrogen and N2 is considered to be “free” nitrogen
Attached is a picture/diagram of both a gram negative bacteria and a gram positive bacteria. This question most likely pertains to gram negative bacteria as only gram negative bacteria as an outer lipopolysaccharide (LPS) membrane.
It should be noted that there must be an error in the question as the bacterial cell wall comprises of the peptidoglycan layer (for gram positive) or the outer membrane plus the peptidoglycan layer (in gram negative). The better question would be what is the space between the cell wall and the plasma membrane in a prokaryotic cell, and the answer is the periplasmic space.
The correct answer is: Even though the S strain had been heat-killed, it changed the R strain.
Griffith in his experiment used two strains of bacteria:
• The rough strain (R) which did not cause pneumonia, (nonvirulent)
• the smooth strain (S) which did caused pneumonia (virulent)
When Griffith heat-killed the S strain it did not caused mice to die.
But, when he gave both the heat-killed S strain and the R strain to mice, the mice developed pneumonia and died.
Griffith conclusion was that the R-strain bacteria took what he called a "transforming principle" from the heat-killed S bacteria which transformed the nonvirulent R strain.
