Nitrates are made by converting ammonia (NH3) to nitrite (NO2-) and then to nitrate (NO3-). What do you predict the O2 levels in

the river will be? High - Nitrate (NO3-) contains more oxygen atoms than ammonia (NH3), so the O2 will be high. Normal - Even though oxygen atoms are added to nitrogen during the nitrogen cycle, the levels of O2 in the water will be normal. Low - The generation of nitrates (NO3-) requires oxygen, so the oxygen levels will be low.

Answer:

Low - The generation of nitrates (NO 3-) requires oxygen, so the oxygen levels will be low

Explanation:

Nitrates are formed when the ammonia react with oxygen present in water. The oxygen which react with ammonia is not the oxygen of water molecule, it is the dissolved oxygen. This oxygen is used by aquatic animals for breathing. If nitrates are formed so the concentration of dissolved oxygen will be lowered which causes suffocation and bad impact on marine organisms and the whole ecosystem will be disturbed.

M protein is produced by
egoroff_w [7]

Answer:

The correct answer will be option- <em>Streptococcus pyogenes.</em>

Explanation:

M protein is an important virulence factor which is produced and expressed on the surface of <em>Streptococcus pyogenes. </em>

This protein plays important role in the bacterial infection like adherence to epidermal keratinocytes, resistance to phagocytosis,  invasion of epithelial cells and microcolony formation.

The M-protein is a α-helical coiled structure protein which consists of the four distinct regions (A–D) in which  A-region in the N-terminal is highly variable.

Thus,  option- <em>Streptococcus pyogenes</em> is the correct answer.

What is the composition of earths atmosphere
gogolik [260]

The earth's atmosphere consists mainly of nitrogen and oxygen with smaller proportions of other gases such as carbon dioxide. The amount of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere is maintained through a balance between processes such as photosynthesis, respiration and combustion. However this balance is being affected by human activities which are polluting the atmosphere.

The proportion of these gases in the atmosphere is as follows: nitrogen is the most abundant at 78%, oxygen is next at 21%,  while others  include carbon dioxide at 0.037% and argon at 0.9 % .
