Answer:
A. He has a large buildup of lactate in his muscles.
Explanation:
Ideally, our body cells, via the process of aerobic cellular respiration, need oxygen to break down glucose. However, during rigorous activities or exercises, oxygen can become unavailable for use. In this case, the body cells switch to use another way of cellular respiration, which is FERMENTATION.
This fermentation causes a build up of lactic acid/lactate (its byproduct) in the cells of the muscles being used, which physically causes a burning and aching sensation just as the case of this hiker. The climbing of the steep path is causing causing the fast usage of oxygen in his cells.
Answer:
A. Chipmunks sleeping underground through the winter
Explanation:
A seasonal change in the behavior of a living organism is a change that occurs every year at a particular time. The reasons for the occurrence of such changes are so that the organism has advantage in survival in the environment. In this case we have the chipmunk that sleeps underground through the winter. We have an animal which exhibit a seasonal change every year, during the winter period. The reason for this is that the chipmunks have very quick metabolism, so if they are active during the winter they will starve because of lack of food. Instead, the chipmunks have evolved to hibernate during the winter, thus slowing down the work of their hurt during the winter and sleep, until the spring comes.
The hydrolysis of triglycerides on a spirit blue agar plate most closely resembles that of beta hemolysis on a blood agar plate.
The hydrolysis of triglycerides on a spirit blue agar plate is used for identifying bacteria based on what organic compounds they can break down, in this case lipids. Spirit blue agar is a medium that contains a supply of lipids. If bacteria have lipase, the enzyme capable of breaking down lipids spirit blue agar will be digested and it will appear as a halos around colonies of bacteria that make lipase.
The ability of bacterial colonies to induce hemolysis (the breakage of red blood cells) when grown on blood agar is used to identify microorganisms. Beta hemolysis is a complete lysis of red blood cells and in the blood agar, that area under the colonies that do the hemolysis appears lightened and transparent.
The correct answer would be the last one: "evolved from past organisms." This theory basically just states that all living organisms evolved from a single common ancestor. Hope this helped! :)
