The part anti means opposed. Biotic is basically all the naturally occurring organisms. So an antibiotic would oppose an organism like a virus.

The word bio in the word antibiotic suggests that antibiotics kill living things. Viruses have genetic information, but they don't have cells. They don't fully meet the definition of being alive.

Region of the World                             Percentage    Value in Metric tons
North America                                          17                  23,332,500
Asia                                                          52                  71,370,000
Africa                                                          3                    4,117,500
Europe                                                     18                  24,705,000
Latin America and the Caribbean              8                  10,980,000
Oceania                                                  <u>   2</u>                <u>    2,745,000</u>
                                                               100                137,250,000

We multiply the 137.25 million metric tons by its percentage to get its equivalent value in metric tons.

Asia uses 71.37 million metric tons.

In making the bar graph, The vertical line will be the percentage and the horizontal line will be the region. Bars of each region should have different colors for easy identification. Spaces between bars should be present, so that the bar graph will not be confused with the histogram.

Why are both mitosis and meiosis important in passing on information from one generation to the next?
nignag [31]
Mitosis makes copies of the host, so it is a good option to increase the population because it is a fast process. Meiosis is important to create genetic diversity, because it makes four genetically different haploid cells, instead of two genetically identical diploid cells, as mitosis does.
