Answer:

Natural selection

Explanation:

The action of natural selection consists in selecting individuals more adapted to a given ecological condition, eliminating those disadvantaged for that same condition. The most appropriate expression refers to the greater probability of a given individual surviving and leaving descendants in a given environment.

Natural selection acts permanently on all populations. Even in stable and constant environments, natural selection acts in a stabilizing manner, is present, eliminating deviant phenotypes. However, the environment does not represent a constant and stable system, either over time or over space, which determines different interactions between organisms and the environment.

Natural selection is the principle that postulates that hereditary traits that provide a reproductive or survival advantage are more likely than alternative traits to be passed on to subsequent generations and are therefore chosen over time.

If a bacteria is positive for the enzyme urease and is inoculated in a urea reduction broth tube at 37∘C for 24 hrs, what color
Vedmedyk [2.9K]

Answer:

The color would be Pink

Explanation:

According to the question, the bacteria is positive for the enzyme urease and it's inoculated for 24 hours.

Urease broth is a differential medium that tests the ability of an organism to produce urease, that hydrolyzes urea to ammonia and carbon dioxide. The broth contains two pH buffers, urea, a very small amount of nutrients for the bacteria, and the pH indicator phenol red. Phenol red turns yellow in an acidic environment and fuchsia in an alkaline environment.

If the urea in the broth is degraded and ammonia is produced, an alkaline environment is created, and the media turns pink within 24 hours.

Many enterics can hydrolyze urea; but only a few can degrade urea rapidly. These are called “rapid urease-positive” organisms.

Urea broth is formulated to test for rapid urease-positive organisms. The restrictive amount of nutrients coupled with the use of pH buffers prevent all but rapid urease-positive organisms from producing enough ammonia to turn the phenol red pink.

Which of the following two cycles are the most closely related in their role in sustaining life?
Paul [167]
C: carbon and oxygen cycles are the most closely related in their role in sustaining life because they both include processes of exchanging themselves among different parts of the earth. E.g. they both process through the ground, in the air, etc.
