Answer:
Correct answer is a pleomorphism
Explanation:
Some bacteria have the ability to change their shape and size which is called pleomorphism. The bacteria which change their shape and size are called pleomorphic bacteria.
These bacteria change their shape due to the change in the external environment condition. For example, bacteria can from rod to coccus shape as their environmental condition changes.
Some examples of pleomorphic bacteria are mycoplasma, some members of the Deinococcaceae family, helicobacter pylori, etc. So the correct answer is a.
Answer:
The Sun
Explanation:
Nearly everything eats sunshine – or eats something else that ate sunshine. The Sun is the major source of energy for organisms and the ecosystems of which they are a part. Producers, such as plants and algae, use energy from sunlight to make food energy by combining carbon dioxide and water to form organic matter.
Answer:
A carbon atom can form up to four covalent bonds as one carbon atom has four valence electrons (in outermost shell). It is a fact that the number of valence electrons in a atom determines the number of covalent bonds it will form. Thus, each electron in carbon atom is used to form four covalent bonds with various four atoms.
Explanation:
A bond between a carbon and hydrogen atom is a non-polar covalent bond. The non-polar covalent bond are the bonds between two atoms which share equal number of electron(s) with each other. Example: as in case of methane, where one carbon atom shares its 4 outer valence electrons with four hydrogens by sharing equal number of electron.
In contrast, polar covalant bond are the bonds between two atoms which share unequal number of electron(s) with each other. Thus these bonds are partially ionic.
Answer is hypertonic.
The ability of an extracellular solution to make water move into or out of a cell by osmosis is known as its tonicity. Tonicity is concern for all living things, especially in in organisms lacking cell wall, <em>Paramecium</em> is one such protozoan. It has specialized structures called contractile vacuoles. A contractile vacuole collects excess water from the cell and release it out, keeping the cell from lysing as it takes on water from extracellular environment which hypotonic (a lower osmolarity than the cell’s cytoplasm) as compared to hypertonic environment inside <em>Paramecium</em>.
