The correct answer is: C) Mycobacterium tuberculosis.
Tuberculosis is an infectious disease that most commonly affects lungs. Mycobacterium tuberculosis is a small, aerobic, nonmotile bacillus type of bacteria responsible for this disease.
There are two forms of tuberculosis:
• Latent-without symptoms
• Active-with symptoms such as chronic cough, fever, sweats, weight loss..
People with active tuberculosis can spread it by the air while they cough, spit, speak, or sneeze.
Answer:
A. is stored after removal from the atmosphere
Explanation:
A carbon sink is a place where carbon is stored after removal from the atmosphere. Carbon is stored in a carbon sink when they are removed from the atmosphere.
A carbon sink are reservoir (usually natural) where carbon is stored. Carbon sink store carbon because of their ability to absorb more carbon. Examples of carbon sinks are plants and water. Plants and water has the capability to absorb more quantity of carbon from the atmosphere and release less quantity of carbon.
Carbon is a chemical elements represented by the symbol C. It has the atomic number 6 and belongs to group 14 of the periodic table.
The answer for this item is FALSE. The water in liquid form and cube of ice have the same chemical properties as they are both water (H2O). Only the physical properties of the liquid water differ from those of the ice.
Answer:
B. Directional selection
Explanation:
When natural selection starts to choose one phenotypes that is an extreme (as in, a really small neck or a really long neck), this is an example of <u>directional selection.</u> It makes sense for giraffes to have evolved this way, because the longer the neck, the more ably they can eat food from high branches. The more food they could get, the more chance of reproduction, the more "evolutionarily fit" they are.
Stabilizing selection is when national selection picks average phenotypes (like a medium-sized neck). Disruptive selection is when the extremes are both picked (like all the medium-sized neck giraffes die, and two different species start to emerge). Sexual selection is picking a mate based on traits. Clearly, those answers don't work here.
