Answer:

4. metabolism, growth, and evolution

Explanation:

Living organisms show different characteristics like respiration, movement, metabolism, growth, evolution, respiration, excretion, nutrition. Most of the microbes are microscopic and unicellular which means they are made up of only one cell but they are also living.

They perform three major types of activities like metabolism, growth, and evolution. This can be seen by culturing bacteria on suitable media. So in the medium, it can be observed that they consume the food present in media and extract energy from it through metabolic activities and are showing growth. All micro-organisms evolve due to mutation. So the correct answer is 4.

Answer:

The correct answer is d.

Explanation:

Hydranencephaly is a rare congenital anomaly characterized by the absence and replacement of the cerebral hemispheres by cerebrospinal fluid and necrotic remains, with preservation of the membranes (leptomeninges), within a skull of normal capacity and shape. It is the most severe form of cortical destruction cerebral bilateral and is considered an extreme form of porencephaly (focal cystic cavity). It mainly affects the territory of the internal carotid artery and middle cerebral artery, with preservation of the territories supplied by the vertebrobasilar arteries. The most accepted etiology is carotid vascular insufficiency, due to multiple causes (bleeding, placental thromboembolism, arteritis, vascular malformations, among others).

Both human beings and snakes have backbones,but snakes can perform more flexible movements than human beings.Why?
Mademuasel [1]

Bones of snakes are very loosely fused together like in humans. Hence these bones can move individually allowing the snakes to be really flexible. The ribs of snakes do not join like those of humans but instead, have free ends and do not have a sternum.

What does it mean when dna is openly floating around the cytosol
vaieri [72.5K]

Most, maybe all, bacteria have their genome DNA tethered to their cell membranes, so it is in the cytoplasm but its not really floating around. Plasmids in bacteria however are free floating. This is why it's so easy to isolate plasmids from bacteria with centrifugation after lysing.
