Close observation of the fruiting bodies of cup fungi (ascomycetes) shows that when asci of cup fungi forcibly eject their spore

s into the air, they tend do so in groups (many asci at once) instead of one at a time. Furthermore, spores released during one of these group events tend to go higher into the air than do spores released from a single ascus. This observation suggests that the simultaneous spore release by multiple asci is likely an adaptation that:a. satiates spore predators, increasing the likelihood that some spores will not be eaten.
b. increases the likelihood that multiple spores will arrive at the same food resource, thus enhancing the likelihood of successful colonization.

c. allows for the formation of new asci by allowing new regions of the fruiting body to undergo karyogamy.

d. enhances the ability of spores to penetrate the layer of stagnant or unmoving air above the fruiting body.

Answer:

a. satiates spore predators, increasing the likelihood that some spores will not be eaten.

This is because spores rely on animals to eat the truffle-like bodies, with the spores then passing out with the animals' faeces.

Answer:

<em>d. enhances the ability of spores to penetrate the layer of stagnant or unmoving air above the fruiting body. </em>

Explanation:

Two things rely on the movement of the spores in the air to the great heights. Velocity is one, and mass would be another. Because if the spores are to grow in the air they need both mass and speed.

Spores produced by single ascus can not accomplish this by themselves. Thereby spores are emitted by asci groups.

Spores obtain the ability to penetrate the layer of stagnant or up-moving air above the fruiting body by being released by community of asci.

Which respiratory disease in which sufferers are often called "pink puffers," is characterized by enlarged alveoli, lung inflamm
vitfil [10]
The correct answer is emphysema.
This respiratory disease occurs when alveoli get enlarged, and thus cause chronic lung inflammation and later on lung fibrosis as well. This person then finds it extremely hard to breathe properly, as airways tend to collapse during expiration.

¿Como realiza la respiración las levaduras y que resultado se obtiene?​
natita [175]

Answer:

Cuando la levadura activa (viva) tiene tanto azúcar como oxígeno disponibles, "respira" mediante un proceso llamado respiración aeróbica. En esta reacción, las células de levadura utilizan glucosa (azúcar) y oxígeno (del aire) para producir energía. También producen agua y dióxido de carbono (un gas). Este es el mismo proceso químico utilizado por los humanos.
