Alenkinab [10]3 years ago

Answer:

1.Temperature

2.Moisture

3. PH: acidic or basic concentration

Explanation:

Different microorganism grow at different temperature. For example, many human-disease-causing microbes have an optimum temperature of 37C, and most of the bacteria do not grow at temperature higher than 45C. This means that any temperature lower than 45C will favor the growth of certain bacteria while higher temperature may cause death or reduction in the population of most. Hence, the effect of temperature on these organisms.

Water is required to dissolve the cell substances in microorganism just like higher animals.  while some can survive under an extremely dry condition, most can't and this could result in death or reduction in population.

PH, a measure of the hydrogen concentration in a solution for most microorganism is between 6-8, too much of acid or base could disrupt the activities of these organisms and a maintained range ensure an optimal survival.

How is a society likely to address the problem of overuse of wildlife
Marianna [84]

Answer:

C. By creating laws or traditions that regulate hunting and fishing

Explanation:

Wildlife resources refer to wild animals (terrestrial, aquatic etc) in their natural habitat. Wildlife is an integral part of our society, however, they are being overexploited by human activities.

According to the options in the question, one way to address the problem of over use of wildlife resources is by creating laws or traditions that regulate hunting and fishing. Laws that compel hunting and fishing, which are the means humans over use wildlife, will help bring the rate at which these resources are used.

For example, creating a law that prohibits hunting in certain areas will help preserve wildlife in that area because it is a punishable offence by the law to hunt. Hence, wildlife resources will be preserved.
