What kind of cellular changes would be expected in oil-eating microbes moved from a warmer environment to the arctic?

Biology
1 answer:
lesya [120]3 years ago
6 0

The oil-eating bacteria helped in the removal of Gulf oil spill, but it is not that easy in Arctic region. The Arctic waters also comprise of cold-adapted, oil-consuming microbes. Though, they function at a diminished rate of metabolism in comparison to the warm water species.  

In the Arctic Ocean, the ocean currents do circulate, but over a larger surface area in comparison to the Gulf of Mexico, so it would take much more years for the bacteria to come back to the similar location. The cold temperatures also influence the nature of the oil, developing it more viscous and thicker that is tougher for the bacteria to dissociate.  

An oil spill in such regions takes even longer to dissociate, as the levels of oxygen in such regions go way down and bacteria cannot live in such conditions easily.

LenKa [72]

<u>ANSWER:</u>

When a supergiant runs out of fuel, the object formed is either a black hole or a neutron star.

<u>EXPLANATION:</u>

  • Supergiant are very large stars in the galaxy that end their lives very quickly.
  • When a supergiant star loses its fuel, it blows itself by a supernove explosion.
  • When supernove explosion happens, the supernova outshines other stars in the galaxy and then slowly faded away leaving a dense object called black hole or neutron star.
  • This black hole or neutron star is surrounded by a mass of very hot gas and the elements of the supergiant star get scattered into the space.
