Answer: Leeuwenhoek biggest contribution is to the first tenet of the cell theory.

Explanation: the first tenet of cell theory states that every living being is made of cells and even an organism can be made of just one cell able to reproduce by itself.

Leeuwenhoek observations stablish the existence of microscopic structures alive some with movement. This helped other scientists to determinate this structures were cells that can make vital processes such as feeding, breathing or reproducing which are determinant in biological definition of life.

mixas84 [53]

Answer:

The right answer is 1 and 4

Explanation:

A hormone is a biologically active chemical substance, synthesized by a glandular cell secreted into the internal environment where it circulates, acting remotely and by blood on receptors specific to a target cell. It transmits a message in chemical form and therefore plays a role of messenger in the body.

The emitting organ thus acts at a distance on all of the target organs of the organism or of neighboring organisms of the same species, or even of symbiotic organisms whose receptors are activated in contact with specific hormones (lasting interactions).

Evolution is likely to occur because of I. the potential for a species' population to increase. II. genetic differences in offsp
malfutka [58]
Lll. a limited supply of necessary resources. If there isn't enough resources the species will have to learn to adapt to be able to gather the new food supply they need. Such as birds and there beaks, if the insects population went down and that was the main food supply for that type of bird they would have to be able to adapt in order to survive, so evolution occurs. Over time that bird would change to adapt to its new feeding source.

Hope this helps!

How do microorganisms affect the quality of soil?
insens350 [35]
The microorganisms found in soil are important because they affect the structure and fertility of soil. Certain bacteria responsible for nitrogen fixation converts nitrogen in the atmosphere, so that it can be used by plants. Because of microbes, nutrients and minerals are made available to plants. Soil with more diverse microbe will result in fewer plant diseases and better crop yield.
