Answer:

chemoautotroph

Explanation:

Chemoautotrophs are the organisms that derive the energy from inorganic chemicals. They do not use the energy of sunlight. Being autotrophs, they are able to synthesize the organic compounds from the inorganic substances. Some of the microbes present in the deep hydrothermal vents are chemoautotroph and use sulfur compounds as an energy source. The given microbe is able to make organic compounds and therefore, is an autotroph. Since it fulfills its energy requirements from the inorganic substances, it is a chemoautotroph.

Give one example of an extrinsic homeostatic mechanism overriding an intrinsic homeostatic process.
NeTakaya

Answer:

Extrinsic regulatory mechanisms are external and depend on the firing of some factor outside the population itself. Among them are interspecific competition, food and space restrictions, very strong climatic variations, weathering and inharmonious relationships with other populations (parasitism and predatism).

Good examples of interspecific competition appear when rabbits, caves, rats compete for the same plant, or different fish and birds, such as the heron, vie for the same species of smaller fish. This is because these different species keep their populations in the same ecological niche. Competition is often so strong that some species eventually, as one example of an extrinsic homeostatic mechanism overriding an intrinsic homeostatic process is their disappearance or migration to other regions.

In this competition, the presence of adaptations among individuals in the population that promote better food search, speed, vision, and others can make the difference between elimination and survival.
