Living indicators are species that are sensitive to changes in the environment. For example air pollution can be monitored by looking at lichen, which are sensitive to sulphur dioxide in the air. The number of lichen at a particular location indicates how clear the air is. Similarly, mayfly larvae are good indicators for water pollution because they're sensitive to the concentration of dissolved oxygen in water.
Non-living indicators are things like satellites which can measure the temperature of the sea surface, weather stations that measure atmospheric temperature, rain gauges to measure rainfall, and dissolved oxygen meters to measure concentration of dissolved oxygen in water.
Bacteria in general grow optimally when the pH is around 7 (5-9 let's say). That is not to say that there are not bacteria that grow in extremely acidic conditions, like in our stomach, or others in extremely basic conditions, like the conditions near volcanoes. Nonetheless, bacteria that grow in food prefer acidic environments over basic ones and usually cannot tolerate the acidity of fruits which is around 4 pH for the most acid ones. For example, stuff like milk and bread that have a pH from 5-6 are prime examples of food where bacteria would thrive. Thus, the correct answer would be b.
Answer:
A) Chloroplasts transform light energy into chemical energy.
Explanation:
Chloroplasts are plastids, cellular organelles inherent in plant cells, which contain a green pigment, chlorophyll, by which they perform photosynthesis.
Photosynthesis is a process in which, with the help of chlorophyll, solar energy is converted into chemical energy in order to use that chemical energy (ATP) for the synthesis of organic matter from inorganic matter (CO2 and H2O).
Answer:
The monomers of DNA are composed of nucleotide.
