I think they are called performance enhancing substances or performance enhancing drugs. They are substances that are used to improve any form of performance in humans, and especially used in athletics.

After incubation, you observe that your streak-plate has heavy, uniform growth but no isolated colonies. Which of the following
Vadim26 [7]

Answer:

Option 3 and 4 are most likely correct

Explanation:

<em>Option 3</em>: We know that area 1 would contain heavy streaking and not single colonies. Therefore, if the loop crosses area 3 and enters area 1, it will definitely result in heavy streaking again.

<em>Option 4</em>: We always need to sterilize properly the loop when streaking in different areas. If we don't do it, it is possible that the loop contains a lot of bacteria that would be streaked again.

Options 1 and 2 are incorrect because, according to question, there is a uniform growth but no isolated colonies. So, contamination or mixed culture would not produce uniform growth streaking rather mixed with other bacterial types.

natali 33 [55]

Answer:

Fungi indirectly help the fishes by providing digested organic nutrients to their prey insects.

Explanation:

According to the given information, fishes are predators of insects. These insects feed on dead leaves. The insects are not able to digest the cellulose of dead leaves. Fungi breakdown the dead and decaying leaves and digest the complex molecules such as cellulose into simpler organic nutrients which in turn are consumed by insects.

If fungi do not decompose the dead leaves, insects would not be able to derive the organic nutrients from them. A shortage of food supply to insects would starve them. Unavailability of prey insects would starve fishes. Thereby, fungi indirectly benefit the fishes to obtain their nutrition from the insect.
