.Oxygen free environments
.Concentrated salt water and hot
. Acidic water of sulfur springs
The red-legged frog breeds in ephemeral ponds from January through March. Its relative, the bullfrog, breeds in permanent ponds from late March through May. There are two pre-mating isolation mechanism at play here,
1. Ecological isolation: The habitats are different, hence the individuals of both the species do not meet. Ephemeral ponds are temporary ponds that develop during rainy days, while the permanent ponds are full of water throughout the year.
2. Temporal isolation: The time of mating is different for both the species to avoid contact between the individuals of closely related species. Red-legged frogs mate in January to March slot and the bullfrog in the March to May slot.
Answer:
Opportunistic, endogenous pathogen
Explanation:
Opportunistic infection is an infection that is caused by the microbes that are otherwise the component of one's own normal microbiota. Under particular conditions, the microbes become pathogenic and cause infection. The pathogen-derived from one's own microbiota is called endogenous pathogen.
According to the given information, <em>Candida albicans </em>is a part of the microflora of mouth but becomes pathogenic under certain conditions. In healthy individuals, they do not produce disease as their overgrowth is suppressed by other microbiota and other host resistance mechanisms. The infection occurs only in those individuals with predisposing factors such as weakened immune system or after consumption of antibacterial medications that disturb the normal microbiota and immune competency. This makes it an opportunistic, endogenous pathogen.
I’m pretty sure The answer Is D. I did the test not to long ago and I got it all right. :)
Bacteria are a prokaryotic cell, did it in class the other day
