Answer:
There are two main types of adaptation: physical and behavioral. Physical adaptations are special body parts that help a plant or animal survive in an environment.
Explanation:
<h3><u>Answer;</u></h3>
Lithosphere
<h3><u>Explanation</u>;</h3>
- Lithosphere is the solid outer part of the earth which includes the brittle upper portion of the crust and the mantle. It is bounded by the asthenosphere below and the atmosphere above.
- <em><u>The pressure in the lithosphere is about 109 gigapascals or GPa. </u></em>
- <em><u>Asthenosphere has a pressure of about 18 GPa</u></em>
- <em><u>The mantle is a layer between the outer core and the crust, it has a pressure of about 149 GPa.</u></em>
The significant role of spore formation in the reproductive cycle of this bacterium would be to allow the bacteria to survive in extreme conditions. The spore formed is called an endospore which is a thick cover made of protein. These spores are mostly resistant to heat and chemicals which makes the bacteria survive in harsh conditions. Spores can only be destroyed by sterilization and it require very high pressures and very temperatures. In microbiology and medical settings, this process is usually done in a device known as the autoclave. Sterilization is a process that involves the killing of all microorganism in a system whether it is harmful or beneficial.
