Difference between nitrification and dentrification

Explanation:

Nitrification and denitrification are part of the nitrogen cycle

Nitrification is the process of conversion of ammonium to nitrate by nitrifying bacteria like Nitrobacter and Nitrosomonas

Denitrification is the process of reduction of nitrate to nitrogen gas by denitrifying bacteria like Pseudomonos, Lactobacillus etc.

Nitrifying bacteria are autotrophs and grows slowly and need aerobic condition.  Denitrifying bacteria are hetertrophs and grows rapidly and need anaerobic conditions.

Nitrification requires a pH of about 6.5 to 8.0; denitrification takes place at 7.0 to 8.5

Nitrification provides soluble nitrates readily available in the soil to be easily absorbed by the roots.

Denitrification processes are used in wastewater or effluent treatment plants.

T cell-target cell interactions induce specialized tc cells to produce ________ that kill virus-infected target cells.
Doss [256]

The answer is granzymes. are serine proteases which trigger the apoptotic cascade in target cells. Apoptotic enzymes activated by granzymes can also destroy viruses or other cytoplasmic pathogens in the target cells so that the pathogens cannot infect nearby cells. Dead target cells are rapidly ingested by macrophages. The Tc cells also produce perforin pores to  allow granzymes to enter the target cell.

Leviafan [203]

Answer:

What are stinkhorns?  Stinkhorns are mushrooms that are found from the tropics to more temperate regions such as Wisconsin.  They can suddenly appear in mulch, lawns, and areas with bare soil.  These visually-shocking fungi get their common name from their characteristic, unpleasant odor.  Although they are often unwanted additions to home gardens, stinkhorns do not cause plant disease.  Because stinkhorns can grow on dead organic material, they actually are beneficial in that they contribute to the recycling of plant debris into nutrients that improve soil fertility and can be used by garden plants.

What do stinkhorns look like?  Stinkhorns grow into various shapes, but they are bestknown for looking like horns or penises.  A few species grow several appendages, resulting in an octopus-like appearance.  Some species have a veil attached below the cap that resembles a lacey skirt flowing from the mushroom’s hollow stalk.  Stinkhorns can range in color from white, beige, and olive to bright orange or red with black accents.  The tips of mature stinkhorns are usually coated in a spore-containing slime.  Gardeners often discover immature stinkhorns as they dig in the soil.  The immature forms appear as whitish to pink or purple, egg-shaped masses.  Stinkhorns develop rapidly sometimes growing up to four to six inches per hour, and can generate enough force to break through asphalt.

Where do stinkhorns come from?  Stinkhorns are often first introduced into a garden in organic materials (e.g., soils and mulches) that contain microscopic hyphae (i.e., fungal threads) of stinkhorn fungi.  Once stinkhorns mature, they produce a pungent, off-putting odor that is reminiscent of rotting flesh or dung.  This smell may disgust people, but it attracts insects, particularly flies.  Flies and other insects eat the slimy material at the tips of stinkhorns and carry spores in this slime to new locations as they move around in the environment.  In many ways, this process is comparable to the distribution of pollen by bees (but of course without the more appealing scents associated with most flowers).
