Answer:

The protection of internal environment from the harms of fluctuations in external environment is termed as homeostasis.

Explanation:

Homeostasis is the central requirement in the maintenance of an organism, which compels the adaptations in the constant changing condition and contribute in evolutionary process.

monitta

Answer:

b. HCOOH/ NaHCOO.

Explanation:

A buffer system may be formed in one of two forms:

  • A weak acid with its conjugate base.
  • A weak base with its conjugate acid.

Chose the pairs below that you could use to make a buffered solution.

a. HCI/NaOH. NO. HCl is a strong acid and NaOH is a strong base.

b. HCOOH/ NaHCOO. YES. HCOOH is a weak acid and HCOO⁻ (coming from NaHCOO) is its conjugate base.

c. HNO₂/H₂SO₃. NO. Both are acids and they are unrelated to each other.

d. NaNO₃/ HNO₃. NO. HNO₃ is a strong acid.

In sediments and waterlogged soil, dissolved O2 concentrations are so low that the microorganisms living there must rely on othe
kakasveta [241]

Answer:

1) SO₄ ²⁻ : (+6)

  H₂S : (-2)

Explanation:

a) <u>Sulfate reducers</u> are widespread in muds and other sediments, water-logged soils, etc., environments that contain SO₄ ²⁻ and become anoxic as a result of microbial decomposition.

Sulfate (SO₄ ²⁻), the most oxidized form of sulfur (+6), <u>is reduced</u> by these

sulfate-reducing bacteria. The end product of sulfate reduction is hydrogen sulfide, H₂S, (oxidation number -2) an important natural product that participates in many biogeochemical processes. The H₂S they generate is responsible for the pungent smell (like that of rotten eggs) often encountered near coastal ecosystems. When sulfate-reducing bacteria grow, the H₂S formed from SO₄ ²⁻ reduction combines with the ferrous iron to form black, insoluble ferrous sulfide, which is not toxic. This is important for the conservation of the environment.

b) The net ionic equation under acidic conditions is:

              4 H₂ + SO₄²⁻ + H⁺ → HS⁻ + 4 H₂O

    Global reaction:  SO₄²⁻ + 2H⁺ → H₂S + O₂
