How do obligate aerobes and obligate anaerobes differ in their interactions with the atmosphere?

1 answer:

3 0

The obligate aerobes need oxygen for their survival, while the obligate anaerobes do not. The obligate aerobes are the species that attain the energy for the process of aerobic respiration with the help of oxygen as the ultimate electron acceptor for the electron transport chain.

On the other hand, obligate anaerobes are the species, which get poisoned by the usual levels of atmospheric oxygen, and thus, get killed in the existence of oxygen.

1. Which of the following might be a result of adding a secondary consumer to the aquatic ecosystem in the accompanying illustra

MatroZZZ [7]

Answer:

<u>Option-(A): </u>In an illustrated flowchart, the movement of carbon atoms through an aquatic food chain is indicated by arrows.
<u>Option-(C)-</u> An increase in the population of scavengers.

Explanation:

The ecological pyramid is comprised of different level of organisms as the energy flow occur through them in a more directed form inside the different spheres depending upon the medium for energy transmission across the given parameters or area. As, the arrow provides us with a more directed way for understanding the transmission of energy through different organisms and there respective levels inside the ecological pyramid.

While, the increase in the level of scavengers or the animals which consumes the left overs of other living beings is balanced with the addition of the secondary consumers to the aquatic ecosystem.As, it will provide equal chances and energy to the different beings inside the ecosystem.

what are three possible ways that a mutation could change DNA, yet have no measurable effect on the organism?

zhuklara [117]

Some mutations don't have any noticeable effect on the phenotype of an organism. This can happen in many situations: perhaps the mutation occurs in a stretch of DNA with no function, or perhaps the mutation occurs in a protein-coding region, but ends up not affecting the amino acid sequence of the protein.

Histopathology is the use of microscopes to view tissues to diagnose and track the progression of diseases. Why are thin slices

Darina [25.2K]

In the field of histopathology, the tissues to be observed under the microscope are cut in very thin slices. The thin slices make the tissue transparent, and thus, it becomes easier to observe the internal structures and accurately diagnose a disease. The tissues slices cut for the observation are generally not more than 3 micro meters in their thickness.

Hence, the answer is 'to make the tissues transparent and easier to observe'.
