<span>The bacteria is likely from the sewage coming from the park's waste pipelines. The excess nitrogen would probably be from the pesticides used to control insects that the park sprayed around the outside of the pond.</span>

Answer:  animal waste; fertilizers

Explanation:

The bacteria are small prokaryotic organisms. A large colony of small bacteria can be found in water, air and soil. Some bacteria also grow in the digestive tract of humans and animals. The fecal discharge of animals will contain the bacteria colonies which will contaminate the pond water when drains along with the surface runoff. The nitrogen is element that is required by the plants for their appropriate growth. Usually the soils of the agriculture land lacks nitrogen. The nitrogen in the soils are added up by the fertilizers. The surface runoff will take away the fertilizers and will deposit them to the pond water. This will lead to the contamination of pond water with nitrogen.

Why are unsaturated fatty acids particularly abundant in the cellular membranes of antarctic fish?
Nutka1998 [239]
Antarctic fish species requires an adaptation to cold environment. Living at cold temperature environment would demand certain biological responses such as cutaneous respiration, enlarged blood vessels, and producing greater amounts of fat. Most of these fat are composed of higher phospolipid levels which are primarily due to phosphatidylethanolamine. This phospolipid is responsible for destabilizing cell membranes and make it more fluid thereby allowing unrestricted blood flow. The fatty acid composition of the membrane lipid is important for membrane fluidity, this is mainly attributed to unsaturated fatty acids which are responsible for decreasing the order of membrane lipids thereby decreasing viscosity. At extremely low temperatures, organisms with low concentration of unsaturated fatty acids would freeze cell membranes. That's why antarctic fishes have higher levels of unsaturated fatty acids.

gulaghasi [49]

<u>Answer:</u>

<em>Six centromeres are observed in a prophase cell from an insect, there are </em><u><em>20 pairs of chromosomes present</em></u><em>. </em>

<u>Explanation:</u>

<em>Centromeres is defined as the part of the DNA</em> which are held responsible for the directional changing of chromosomes.

And these chromosome gets divided into <em>2 daughter cells while undergoing the process of mitosis and meiosis. </em>

<em>Chromosome is basically defined as a thin structure</em> as of a threadlike which is made out of nuclei acid and protein which is <em>located at the nucleus of various living cells</em>
