Answer:

Fimbriae

Explanation:

Fimbriae are hair-like structures made up of proteins, that surround the outer surface of a bacterium. It helps them stick to the surfaces, tissues, and even other cells. The term fimbriae is often interchanged with pilli but pilli are longer. They are found in both gram negative and gram positive bacteria.

The correct answer is the last option.

The first option (unable to cause climate change) is incorrect because these gases do effect the atmospheric temperatures by increasing them.
The second option is incorrect because while these gases do cause more water vapor to condense, they result in acid rain (not wetter climates).

A letter about the evidence of evolution
GuDViN [60]

Answer:

I am writing this in response to a letter regarding evolution. Evolution is increasingly solid, not shaky. Darwin’s “theory” or explanation was a way of understanding what he had discovered (which did not include genes, chromosomes, DNA or nucleotide bases). Our explanations now include genetics and the commonality of mutation.  

Proofs are solid, not in question by serious scientists. Direct observation is one, which we see in the fact that this year’s flu evolved a little too far from last year’s, so flu shots are less effective this year than we would like them to be.  

Fossils tell the story well: whales with legs, dinosaurs with feathers and Tiktaalik. The latter was found in the Canadian north and is part fish, part amphibian, before there were ever any amphibians. Imperfection is a good proof: think of your useless appendix, the very bad design of your ankles, knees, and back (talk to a chiropractor about that).  You have big toes because they used to be useful thumbs for your grasping feet.

Many other animals and even plants similarly have flaws that show their evolutionary past. Two large human chromosomes reflect the coming together of two chimpanzee chromosomes each.

Hope it helps,

Please mark me as the brainliest

Thank you

Why does scientific theories change ?
suter [353]

It depends on whatever it's real or just a simple theory. But, at times it may not be simple as it seems, because theories are often left as theories. In the near future (or even now) they'll be testing to see if theories can be proven as a fact!

Good luck!
