Answer:

Chemoheterolithotroph

Explanation:

Since the bacteria derives energy from chemical compounds rather than from Sun, it is a chemotroph. Chemotrophs are the organisms that derive energy from chemical compounds.

Since the bacteria uses sulfur as fuel, it is chemolithotroph. Chemolithotrophs are the organisms that cannot fix carbon dioxide as the phototrophs do and  use any inorganic compound.

Answer:

I don't really understand what the question is, but I'm pretty sure you're asking for which molecules that will be needed; Carbon, Hydrogen, Oxygen, Nitrogen, Phosphorus

Explanation:

-Carbohydrate consists mainly of Carbon, Hydrogen, Oxygen, simple sugars have the basic formula of (CH2O)n. Some modification can be made to the sugar, but the main formula consists only with Carbon, Hydrogen, Oxygen.

-Proteins consists mainly of Carbon, Hydrogen, Oxygen, and Nitrogen for the amide groups. Some amino acid will need Sulfur for it's R Group.

-Fats consists mainly of Carbon, Hydrogen, and Oxygen just like Glucose.

-Nucleic Acids consists mainly of Carbon, Hydrogen, Oxygen, Nitrogen, and Phosphorus for the backbone of the Nucleic Acid. Nitrogen will be needed for the Nitrogenous Base.

I hope this is the answer you're looking for!

If interbreeding within the hybrid zone of the mountain pass decreased over time, what would you expect to happen to the Western
tamaranim1 [39]

Answer:

The two population will become separate species due to allopatric speciation

Explanation:

Allopatric speciation is also known as geographic speciation. In this speciation two populations of the same species isolated geographically from each other which prevents gene flow between them and the two populations evolve separately and over time, it leads to the creation of a separate species.

So here as interbreeding within the hybrid zone of the mountain pass decreased over time so it will lead to speciation in these populations and they will evolve into two separate populations due to lack of gene flow as a result of geographical isolation.

Sindrei [870]

Answer:

Reduce or stop the production of energy molecule i.e ATP

Explanation:

Proton is an essential ingredient to carry out light reactions successfully and the proton requirement is fulfilled through the proton gradient formed along the membrane. A chemical that blocks the flow of electrons thereby hindering the flow of proton will adversely affect the electron transport chain reactions thereby causing reduced/no conversion of ADP to ATP.
