Answer:
The correct answer is option C.
Explanation:
The human gastrointestinal microbiota or the gut microbiota or the gut flora refers to the microbes, which thrive in the digestive tracts of humans. The human gastrointestinal tract comprises the gathering of all the genomes of gut microbiota. It is the niche where the human microbiota is found.
The microbial composition of the gut microbiota differs across the digestive tract. In the small intestine and stomach, very small species of bacteria are found, while the colon comprises the densely populated microbial ecosystem. Of these over 99 percent of the bacteria found in the gut are anaerobes, as the space within the intestines is highly anaerobic.
These microbes are confined deep within the body where oxygen cannot reach as it is not supplied with the help of blood vessels. Thus, a highly anaerobic environment is witnessed deep within the intestinal regions.
Answer:
The process of respiration in plants involves using the sugars produced during photosynthesis plus oxygen to produce energy for plant growth. In many ways, respiration is the opposite of photosynthesis. In the natural environment, plants produce their own food to survive.As with photosynthesis, plants get oxygen from the air through the stomata. Respiration takes place in the mitochondria of the cell in the presence of oxygen, which is called "aerobic respiration".
In plants, there are two types of respiration: dark respiration and photo respiration. The first kind occurs in the presence or absence of light, while the second occurs exclusively in the presence of light.<em>Plant respiration occurs 24 hours per day</em>, but <em>night respiration is more evident since the photosynthesis process ceases.</em> During the night, it is very important that the <em>temperature is cooler than during the day</em> because plants can experience stress. Imagine a runner in a marathon.
roots respire too!
One of the functions of the substrate is <em>to serve as a site for air exchange between the root zone and atmosphere</em>. In other words, <em>roots breathe oxygen like we do</em>. Different plants have different oxygen requirements for their root systems.
For example,
<em><u>the root system of a poinsettia requires a lot of oxygen, so it is best to use a substrate with high air porosity, while hostas can live well in a substrate with a high water holding capacity. </u></em>

Answer:
D
Explanation:
Animals and plants preform a process known as cellular respiration.
This process is:
oxygen+glucose--> carbon dioxide+ water + ATP (energy)
If a plant was placed in this container with carbon dioxide and oxygen, it would preform cellular respiration, but it would also use another process called photosynthesis:
carbon dioxide+water+light energy-->oxygen+glucose
Since a plant performs both, the levels of carbon dioxide and oxygen wouldn't change a lot.
However, if this was an animal, the carbon dioxide levels would increase. An animal would inhale oxygen, use it in cellular respiration, and then exhale carbon dioxide as a waste product.
Therefore, the correct answer is D: increase in carbon dioxide levels.
Answer:
At low temperatures, gas particles have less kinetic energy, and therefore move more slowly; at slower speeds, they are much more likely to interact (attracting or repelling one another) upon collision
