The right answer is C
This process is called anaerobic respiration. It doesn't need dioxygen to occur (it can happen with or without O2).
Anaerobic respiration is a mechanism in which electrons pass through a chain of transporters whose final acceptor is a mineral substance other than oxygen, unlike aerobic respiration where the final acceptor is dioxygen. The final acceptor may be the nitrate ion (as in the case of Pseudomonas), carbon dioxyde or the sulfate ion.
Some bacteria (Pseudomonas) are able, anaerobically, to reduce nitrates to nitrites and then, depending on the case, to dinitrogen (with the enzyme Nitrate reductase A).
NO3- ==> NO2- ==> N2.
Answer:
D
Explanation:
It's kind of hard to explain, if it's hot, it's the temperature.
The Answer was in your question. :)
This produces several negative effects on the biodiversity of the river ecosystem.
<u>Explanation:</u>
The Susquehanna river is polluted by the excess release of nutrients like phosphorous and nitrogen from agricultural land and sewage treatment plants. This can adversely affect the health of the river. The excess of nutrients will accelerate the growth of algae in the river.
The dead algae that settle at the bottom of the river decay by consuming the oxygen present in the river. This will reduce the amount of dissolved oxygen in the river and affect aquatic life.
Thick algal growth partially prevents the penetration of sunlight into the water and this affects the growth of submerged plants which are food to the fish.
They have different genes.
<span>If the parent's reproductive cells or gametes contain 12 chromosomes each, the number of chromosomes in the zygote is 24. Fertilization is the fusion of two haploid gametes and results in the creation of a diploid zygote. If two haploid gametes containing 12 chromosomes each fuse, the zygote will have 24 chromosomes (12 + 12 = 24).</span>
