<h2>Cyanobacteria </h2>

Explanation:

Simple cyanobacteria (single-celled organisms that can produce oxygen through photosynthesis) played a key role in providing Earth’s atmosphere and oceans with oxygen

Cyanobacteria or the blue green algae are the only bacteria that contain chlorophyll A, a chemical required for oxygenic photosynthesis, the process which uses carbon dioxide, water and sunlight to produce oxygen and glucose (sugars) for energy

In this process chlorophyll A helps in capturing the energy from sunlight

In addition to chlorophyll A, blue-green algae also contain the pigments phycoerythrin and phycocyanin, which give the bacteria their bluish tint    

All the above characteristics of cyanobacteria can be used as a source of renewable energy by converting sunlight into electricity

1. With respect to oxygen requirements, an <u>aerobe </u>can use gaseous oxygen and possesses enzymes to process toxic oxygen products.

<h3>What are enzymes?</h3>

Proteins called enzymes aid in accelerating our bodies' chemical reactions, or metabolism. Some compounds are created, while others are broken down. Enzymes are a component of all life. Enzymes are created by our bodies spontaneously.

2.  Expanding on this classification, an <u>obligate </u>aerobe cannot grow without oxygen.

3. Still other organisms, called<u> facultative anaerobes</u>, metabolize by aerobic respiration but can adapt to anaerobic environments.

A facultative anaerobic organism is one that can switch from aerobic respiration to fermentation in the presence of oxygen to produce ATP.

elixir [45]

You are in the forest and see a large, snarling, drooling grizzly bear running directly toward you. The adrenaline rush you feel as you run toward the cabin is controlled by the sympathetic nervous system.

The sympathetic nervous system is a part of the autonomic nervous system which functions through various interconnected neurons. The sympathetic nervous system’s main role is to stimulate the neuronal and hormonal stress response (also known as body's fight-or-flight response). The sympathetic fibers in the adrenal medulla (inner part of the adrenal gland) produce acetylcholine (a neurotransmitter), which allow the high secretion of adrenaline and low amounts of noradrenaline from it. The sympathetic nervous system also prepares the body for action, especially in situations that are dangerous to survival.

mrs_skeptik [129]

Answer:

The correct answer is option C.

Explanation:

As it is given that, a Mendelian cross is performed between two parents resulted by cross the parents. This suggests that the parents or P generation has zero recombination hence the genotype of Parents would be AA and aa in nature. Therefore, all the F1 generation offspring were Aa in nature. The selfing of the F1 offspring will be:

         A  a

A AA Aa

a Aa aa

Genotype: AA: Aa: aa :: 1:2:1

Phenotype: Dominant: recessive :: 3:1
