You live in a city in Florida on the Gulf of Mexico and are trying to figure out why the water at the beaches turned bright gree

n for several months during the summer. You discover the green comes from a photosynthetic organism that grew at great numbers due to fertilizer spill in a nearby river. You have isolated the organism and are now testing its DNA. You extract all the DNA from your sample and find that there are three distinct kinds of DNA. Which of the following organisms could have been responsible for the bloom: fungus, bacteria, or protist? How do you know?

Blue-green algae affect freshwater, and it has a direct correlation to agricultural and urban runoff.

The heavy rains last spring most likely caused Lake Okeechobee to discharge water containing blue-green algae into rivers and canals. The bright green sludge oozed onto docks, dams and rivers and through tributaries into the ocean.

Blue-green algae (cyanobacteria) are a group of prokaryotic, autotrophic microorganisms that contain the photosynthetic pigments (chlorophyll and phycocyanin), Therefore, the DNA shows bacteria

Bacteria is the correct answer

Explain how a single Bacterium can grow to a population of more than 10 million hours later.
Vera_Pavlovna [14]
Bacteria reproduces exponentially so like at first you’d have one, then 2, then 4, then 16... (because each bacteria splits into 2) and eventually a few hours later you’ll have millions

Please answer I really need help
vampirchik [111]

Answer:

Carbohydrates - monosaccharides

Proteins - amino acids

Nucleic acids - nucleotides

Lipids - fatty acids (hydrocarbon chains)

Explanation:

There are four major biological molecules called biomolecules in nature namely; carbohydrates, proteins, nucleic acids and lipids. These four molecules form the bedrock upon which life is built. The biomolecules mentioned above are POLYMERS formed as a result of the combination of two or more simpler molecules called MONOMERS in a process called CONDENSATION.

The monomer of each polymeric biomolecule is as follows;

Carbohydrates - monosaccharides

Proteins - amino acids

Nucleic acids - nucleotides

Lipids - fatty acids (hydrocarbon chains)

Yuki888 [10]

Answer:

to transmit an output in response to the total afferent input

Explanation:

An effector refers to parts of the body generates response. An effector responds to transmit an output in response to the total afferent input  Stimulus in the body are detected by the receptor which send signals to the central nervous system via sensory neuron where interpretation and a response is coordinated by the brain. The response is sent to the effector through the motor neuron.
