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.

Answer:

Genetic Mutation

Explanation:

Speciation can be driven by evolution, which is a process that results in the accumulation of many small genetic changes called mutations in a population over a long period of time.

There are a number of different mechanisms that may drive speciation.

Two of them to point out here.

1. natural selection

2. genetic drift

genetic drift describes random fluctuations in allele frequencies in populations, which can eventually cause a population of organisms to be genetically distinct from its original population and result in the formation of a new species.

What is the Gestalt Principle?
WARRIOR [948]

Answer:

The Gestalt Principles are a set of laws arising from 1920s’ psychology, describing how humans typically see objects by grouping similar elements, recognizing patterns and simplifying complex images. Designers use these to engage users via powerful -yet natural- “tricks” of perspective and best practice design standards.
