I'm assuming this is referring to the Peppered Moth, a species of moth that adapted to the change of color on tree bark. The tree bark changed color as a result of local pollution. The moths (over the course of generations) changed color as well that better suited camouflage upon the new color of the tree bark.

Which type of solution would cause a bacterium with a weak or damaged cell wall to burst as water moves into the cell? hints whi
taurus [48]

The type of solution that would cause a bacterium with a weak or damaged cell wall to burst as water moves into the cell is a hypotonic solution.

When a bacteria with a weak cell wall is kept in a hypotonic solution, the concentration of the water outside the cell is large, and within the cell it is low. This concentration gradient of water forces the water from the outside to exert force onto the cell wall. If the cell wall is weak, then the water rushes in bursting the cell.

Answer:

1: Organisms that make energy are called producers.

Producers are the autotrophic or chemotrophic organisms which are capable of synthesizing their food either by photosynthesis or by chemosynthesis. In the process of photosynthesis organisms use sunlight as a source of energy to convert water and carbon dioxide into carbohydrates and oxygen. Also some simple organisms use chemical energy obtained by chemical inorganic substances and convert them as organic chemical substances to obtain them as food.

2: A decomposer recycles matter back into the food web and biogeochemical cycles.

A decomposer is an organic which feed upon dead decaying organic matter generated after the death of plants and animals. This process results in the simplification of organic matter into simpler substances which are again absorbed by the plants through soil.

3. The sun is the source of energy. The light energy from sun is converted into chemical energy in the form of food by the producers like plants.

4. The autotrophs are found at the base of a food pyramid.

The autotrophs are called as producers because they are capable of synthesizing their own food by the process of photosynthesis . The diversity of producers in nature is more as compared to other organisms therefore, it lies at the base of the food chain.
