Correct answer: A). Invasive species

An invasive species are those species that are not native to the ecosystem, but when introduced it can cause harm to the environment, economy or even human health. Invasive species may include plant, insect, fungus, fish, bacteria or eggs or seeds of an organism.

Zebra mussels are an invasive species that are known to consume a huge amount of plankton, as a result of that, they compete with fish and other aquatic life for food and they also clog pipes by forming colonies in it and disturb the whole aquatic ecosystem.

shutvik [7]
Carbonate groups contain a single carbon atom, and three oxygen atoms in a trigonal molecular geometry. The carbon atom has two single bonds to two oxygen atoms and a double bond to the third oxygen atom. Therefore, in addition to carbon, carbonate minerals contain oxygen.

how does the earth evlove around the sun while the moon evlolves around the earth with out those two planets colliding
ICE Princess25 [194]

Answer:

This is a rather complicated thing to explain so I'll try my best. To put it in simple term the sun has whats called a SOI (sphere of infleunce) and anything inside of this is effected by the gravity of that planet or sun in this case. The earth is inside of this sphere of influence. The earth has a constant velocity that is making it move away from the sun but since it's in the suns SOI the path in which the earth moves is changed in a way that causes it to spin around the sun. The same thing is happening with the moon. I'm not 100% sure on this but I think the reason the moon does not just fly away towards the sun is because it is closer to earth and is more effected by earths SOI. Hope this cleared things up for you.

<em>a)        Aids in reduction of a dense culture of cells to a more usable concentration.</em>

<em>b)        In every step of dilution the specific amount of bacteria is removed. </em>

<em>c)        Helps in the estimation of concentration of an unknown sample.</em>

<em>This sums up the advantage of using the series dilution technique.</em>
