The theory of natural selection was first expounded by Charles Darwin and today it is believed to be the main process that brings about evolution.

This process is defined as the process whereby organisms who better adapt to their environment tend to survive and produce more offspring.

Hence, according to this statement, option C is correct.

More organisms are born than can survive.

The Oxidation-Fermentation Test is used to differentiate bacteria built on their capability to oxidize or ferment specific sugars.
Once microbes are inoculated,-One tube is sealed with a layer of sterile mineral oil to promote anaerobic growth and fermentation.-The other tube is left unsealed to allow aerobic growth and oxidation.
Organisms able to ferment the carbohydrate or ferment and oxidize the carbohydrate will turn the sealed and unsealed yellow throughout.
Organisms able only to oxidize the sugar will turn the unsealed yellow medium and leave the sealed medium green or blue.
Fragile fermenters will convert both tubes slightly yellow at the top.
Organisms not able to metabolize the sugar will either produce no color change or will turn the medium blue due to alkaline products from amino acids degradation.
Since Pair #1 showed complete yellowing for sealed and unsealed, these Organisms able to ferment the carbohydrate or ferment and oxidize the carbohydrate. So our interpretation will be that the organism has: Oxidation and fermentation OR fermentation only.
For tubes #2 and #3, the sealed tubes were green throughout suggests that they need oxygen for aerobic growth, and the fact that their unsealed tubes showed light yellowing is evidence for oxidation. Sealed - Green and Unseal - Yellow. Our interpretation for these pairs of tubes would be : Oxidation
Tube 1 can be either Oxidation and fermentation OR fermentation only. So reliability of this needs to be confirmed more with additional testing.
Tubes 2 and 3 are most reliable because they can only be oxidation only and no fermentation.

Answer:

Covalent Bonds

Explanation:

  • Covalent bonds are also called molecular bonds, and its defined as chemical bonds that involves the sharing of electron pairs between atoms.

Which illness is most closely associated with time-temperature abused rice or other starchy foods?
pav-90 [236]
The answer is <span>Bacillus cereus

It is a bacteria responsible for some foodborne illnesses that can be found on rice products, potatoes, and pasta. This can be prevented through time and temperature control. The effect on a person having this kind of bacteria is nausea and diarrhea. 

One solution to prevent this is to give the right temperature through right cooling so germs cannot multiply. </span>

Use your knowledge of inheritance (the passing of traits from parents to offspring) to explain why
yarga [219]

Answer:

Fraternal twins can be different genders because they are two completely different eggs getting fertilized; but even two same gender fraternal twins do not look completely alike. Whereas for identical twins since one egg is splitting into two, the two cells have the same exact DNA make up and chromosomes.

I also believe the technical part of it is to do with genetics, like ressesive and dominant genes, because they can be the same gender, ex. both girls and one has blue eyes, fair skin, and blonde hair, the other twin has brown eyes, black hair and tan skin. The parents could be part of the genes but there is also grandparents maybe the mom's mom has blonde hair and blue eyes, with fair skin. But the dad he has brown eyes, black hair and tan skin. The moms genes were recessive, but the grandma's genes were dominant.

I tried to explain it as best as I could I hope it helps!
