Answer:

The correct answer is Listeria monocytogenes.

Explanation:

Listeria monocytogenes recognized as foodborne pathogens in the 1980s. The listeria monocytogenes is the only species of Listeria that is pathogenic to humans.

The typical pH range it can grow is between 5-9. It is not seen that it can grow below pH 4.3. It is commonly found in deli meats, hot dogs, soft cheeses, raw meat, and unpasteurized milk.

The incubation period is between 3-70 days and its infection in the body is called listeriosis. The common symptoms are just like other foodborne diseases like diarrhea and fever. Children, pregnant women, and older persons are more susceptible to listeria infection.

Which term describes body structures in different organisms that have different outward appearances but develop from the same em

Nataly [62]

Answer:

The correct answer would be B) homologous.

Homologous organs refer to the set of organs which have different appearance and function but share common anatomy due to common ancestry.

For example, the forearm of human, forelimb of the horse, wing of a bat, wings of birds, and seal's flipper share common underlying anatomy. They are made up of same sets of bones (humerus, radius, ulna, carpels, metacarpals, and phalanges).

These organs are adapted to perform different functions in an environment.

It is also observed that these organs developed in the same manner in the embryo and from similar origins.

OLEGan [10]

Answer:

c. Magma composition and cooling rate.

Explanation:

A rock cycle can be defined as a concept used to describe the continuous process that leads to a rock's creation, formation, transformation from one form to another, destruction and reformation over a specific period of time. The natural phenomenons that influences the rock cycle are weathering, plate tectonic activity, erosion, etc.

Basically, the three (3) main types of rocks are; metamorphic rock, sedimentary rock and igneous rock.

All igneous rocks are produced from magma (lava) and formed at the Earth’s surface, thereby, causing them to have a coarse texture and dark colors.

Generally, the cooling and solidification of magma (lava) leads to the formation of an igneous rock, either when the melted rock is still inside the continental crust of the Earth or at volcanoes on the Earth's surface.

Hence, magma composition and cooling rate determines the type of igneous rock that forms from magma. Some examples of an igneous rock are granite, obsidian, tuff, basalt, rhyolite, andesite, pegmatite, dacite, scoria, pumice, etc.
