Acidophiles is the correct
Natural selection act directly upon <u>Alleles</u>
Explanation:
Genes, such as that of fur color, have many variants called alleles. Natural selection act on the alleles and chooses the best fit for an environment and eliminates the disadvantageous ones from the population over generations. Mutations are a rare occurrence that increases the number of allelic variants of a genes on which natural selection can act upon.
Answer;
-The most appropriate answer is Lipids
Explanation;
-Lipids is among the four biological biomolecules, the others being proteins, carbohydrates and nucleic acids.
-Lipids are made up of fatty acids and glycerol and are composed of elements carbon, hydrogen, oxygen and they may also contain phosphorus, like in the case of phospholipids which are mainly components of the cell membranes.
-They take two forms, namely; fats and oils. Therefore, the oil form of lipid may be used as lamp oil.
The hormone ethylene is a gas and disperses easily.
Answer:
time; point
Explanation:
The complete question is as follows:
The shortest length of time required to kill all test microbes at a specified temperature is the thermal death __________ whereas the lowest temperature required to kill all microbes in a sample within 10 minutes is the thermal death _________.
time; point
window; point
point; time
time; temperature
- When a population of bacteria gets killed due to exposure to high temperatures then this is termed as thermal death.
- The time taken to kill a specific microbe at a specific temperature is termed as the thermal death time. The length of the time taken depends on the nature of the target microbe and hence, varies from one to another.
- The lowest temperature that will kill all the microbes in a sample within ten minutes is defined as the thermal death point. The temperature at which the microbes get killed within 10 minutes also varies from one microbe to another.
- Thermal death results in the disruption of the cell membranes of the microbes and hence can kill the microbes.
