The ability of vibrio cholerae to cause disease depends on a number of factors. What are general requirements for any organism t
Svetllana [295]
<h2>Disease </h2>

Explanation:

  • Pathogenicity is the ability to produce disease in a host organism
  • Microbes express their pathogenicity by means of their virulence, a term which refers to the degree of pathogenicity of the microbe
  • The relationship between a host and a pathogen is dynamic, since each modifies the activities and functions of the other
  • The outcome of such a relationship depends on the virulence of the pathogen and the relative degree of resistance or susceptibility of the host, due mainly to the effectiveness of the host defense mechanisms
  • Hence, general requirements for any organism to cause disease within a host are: evasion of host defenses , gaining access to the host via a portal of entry, adherence to host tissues

After photosynthesis, energy that the coral can use is stored in
katen-ka-za [31]

Answer:

Energy is stored in <u>glucose</u> molecules <u>C6H12O6</u>

<u />

Explanation:

Producers make sugars stored as monomers bonded together to form polysaccharides, long chain hydrocarbon molecules as a result of the process of <u>photosynthesis</u>. These molecules, like the monosaccharide glucose, store converted solar energy as stable  chemical energy in covalent bonds.  In covalent bonding, the elements share electrons with each other.

These high-energy bonds are stable and not easily destabilized or broken. The energy is retrieved the the process of respiration in the mitochondria.

Glucose is broken down, while energy is transferred to bonds between ADP and inorganic phosphate, to produce ATP (adenosine triphosphate).  

Eg. for aerobic respiration...

C6H12O6 (glucose) + 6 O2 → 6 CO2 + 6 H2O + ≅38 ATP

glucose+ oxygen →  carbon dioxide+ water+ energy

Explain how carbon is cycled between the atmosphere and geosphere. Use specific examples.
Over [174]

Answer:

Carbon starts as coal or oil in the earth, then is brought up by mining or drilling. When brought up, it is used up and the gases go into the atmosphere. Trees, soil and water act as carbon sinks, which suck up all the carbon from the air and contain it. When carbon is absorbed by the soil, it goes back into the ground.
