I think it is C, though not sure. Hope this helps you.
Answer:
A. The bacteria are breaking down sugars in the absence of oxygen.
Explanation:
Bacteria are microscopic single-celled organims. These organisms may produce their own source of chemical energy, or consume and absorb chemical energy made by producers.
They break down chemical energy like glucose through lactic acid fermentation in their cytoplasm, without the presence of oxygen.
In Glycolysis:
2 molecules of ATP are used to break up glucose into 2 molecules of pyruvate, 4 ATP and 2 electron carrying NADH molecules. Since 2 ATP are used, a net 2ATP are produced by this process.
Then, pyruvate is converted to lactic acid, producing 2 NAD+, used as electron carriers.
<span>The correct answer is a. the overuse of fertilizer lead to reduced crop yields over time. This was unexpected because it is common for fertilizers to increase the yields and the quality of the product, but what happens over time is the opposite so it can be said that it's an unexpected consequence.</span>
<u>Answer</u>:
The high sea surface salinity can be observed in the Pacific Ocean, the Indian Ocean, the Arabic ocean and the Mediterranean sea.
<u>Explanation</u>:
Due to rainfall and evaporation of water from sea the density varies with varying salts and minerals concentration that aggregate at the surface. The salinity in the seawater varies according to the amount of evaporation from a particular area.
Low salinity water is found in polar and subpolar regions that are near to the equator. Regions of high salinity are observed in the seawater which is centered around 30 degrees north and 30 degrees south to the equator due to the excess evaporation in these areas.
Ok, think about it. Does your skin prevent germs from getting inside you?
Does your skin prevent water from leaving the body too quickly? Does your skin protect your insides from getting damaged when you fall? Do you put food on your skin to absorb nutrients, or do you put food in your mouth like a normal person?
