Answer:
Everything in Earth's system such as water, land, air, and or living things.
Explanation:
All those things are called "Spheres" or specifically =
1- Hydrosphere (water)
2- Lithosphere (land)
3- Biosphere (living things)
4- atmosphere (air)
Answer:
See the answer below
Explanation:
<em>Obligate anaerobes are microbes that can only survive in oxygen-deficient environments. They are killed by the normal atmospheric level of oxygen and will only thrive in environments whose oxygen levels are lower than that of normal atmospheric level. </em>
Obligate bacteria such as <em>Clostridium botulinum </em>obtain their energy through <u>anaerobic respiration processes such as fermentation and anaerobic respiration.</u> During this process of fermentation, the lactic acid pathway is mostly used but other fermentation pathways such as propionic acid, mixed acid, acetogenesis, and methanogenesis pathways can be used.
Answer:
In an ecosystem, all organisms benefit in the process of transformation of energy.
Explanation:
An ecosystem works thanks to the constant transformation of energy. In the case of microorganisms that act as producers, they benefit the rest of the ecosystem in terms of energy transfer because they acquire the energy from a lowest trophic level to make it available for higher trophic levels.
In the case of the primary consumers, they are feeding from the primary producers, incorporating that energy to be part of the food chain. For example, bacteria in the soil are primary producer microorganisms; they transform organic material to make it available for small individuals. A soil worm is a primary consumer microorganism which will feed from this organic material transformed by the bacteria. The worm will then produce food and will be food for herbivores to continue with the flow of energy in the food chain.
