Answer:
Reduction of iron to prevent oxidation.
Explanation:
Bacteria has several mechanisms to protect the enzyme nitrogenase, one of them involves the increase of their metabolism to reduce the oxygen availability.
Besides this mechanism, there is also a conformational protection. This involves an interaction with FeSII protein, a ferredoxin. This protein is found as a homodimer that contains a 2[Fe-S] cluster, so reduction of Fe is not one of the mechanisms.

Explanation:
First of all, we have to know the difference between a mechanical wave and an electromagnetic wave.
A mechanical wave requires a material medium for propagation. It does not travel through space. An electromagnetic wave does not require a material medium for propagation and it can travel through space.
Light and heat are electromagnetic waves. They both belong to the electromagnetic spectrum. On the other hand, sound is a mechanical wave.
While heat and light can travel through space, sound can not because it is a mechanical wave. Sound has to pass through gas molecules and there is no gas in outer space.
Hence, we enjoy the sun's light and heat waves on Earth, but cannot hear any sound of the sun.
When caring for a
patient who experienced a severe abdomen laceration with a loop of protruding
bowel from the wound, the patient should be advise to keep it clean and that it
should be kept warm and moist for faster healing and recovery. Moreover, a broad-spectrum
antimicrobial therapy should be given to avoid sepsis and pain management
intervention should be done.
More water leaves the cell than enters the cell. Since it is a hypertonic solution, the surrounding medium has lesser concentration of water than the cell
Answer:
The homologous chromosomes pair together in prophase 1 of meiosis, but they do not during prophase 1 of mitosis. This is achieved by a process known as synapsis, where the similar chromosomes pair according to sequence similarity. The homologous chromosomes are held together by a protein structure known as the synaptonemal complex in a chromosome body known as a tetrad (because it contains 4 replicated chromosomes known as chromatids) or bivalent (if the organism is diploid). This pairing during prophase 1 of meiosis allows recombination to take place between the homologous chromosomes. This occurs early during prophase but the manifestation of recombination only becomes visible during the later stages of prophase 1 and in metaphase 1. Because the chromosomes adopt different structures during prophase 1 of meiosis, this stage is sub-divided into 5 stages: leptotene, zygotene, packytene, diplotene and diakinesis. It is during diplotene and diakinesis that the physical manifestation of recombination can be seen. This is the presence of chiasmata (chiasma, singular). These are the sites where recombination, or exchanges between homologous chromosomes, has taken place. By the end of prophase 1, it is only the chiasmata that holds the homologous chromosomes together. This constriction make the tetrads adopt a variety of structures, the shape of which depends upon the number of chiasmata formed. The tetrads stay in this conformation until metaphase 1. Synapsis, the formation of the synaptonemal complex, the formation of chiasmata does not take place during prophase 1 of mitosis and these processes represent the major differences between prophase of the two nuclear divisions.
