Answer:

limit the number of plant populations that can grow in an ecosystem.

Explanation:

All living organisms have basic needs, such as food, minerals, water, shelter, and sunlight. If there were an unlimited supply of these items, populations could continue to grow indefinitely. This, however, is not the case. Living factors, such as animals and plants, and nonliving factors, such as water, minerals, and sunlight, are often called limiting factors, because there is a finite supply and they limit the number of populations that can grow and thrive in an ecosystem.

Does a sunbird benefit the plant from which it drinks nectar?

Airida [17]

I believe the sunbird would benefit the plant because it would pollinate them. Going from flower to flower, pollen would get stuck on it's feathers and it would pollinate other flowers, like a bee.

Additional compounds can be added to agar before sterilization (or sometimes after). an example of this is "milk agar," in which

Marat540 [252]

The lactose-digesting bacteria like to grow on milk agar .Bacillus cereus growth and survival were examined during the production of cheese of the Gouda variety. Approximately 102 B. cereus spores per milliliter of cheese milk were intentionally added to pasteurized milk before it was used to make the cheese in the pilot plant.

"milk agar," in which 2% nonfat powdered milk is added to the agar base. lactose-digesting bacteria like to grow on milk agar. Surface plating on B. cereus selective medium was used to count B. cereus, while lactic acid bacteria were counted on lactic agar and MRS agar (de Man-Rogosa-Sharpe). Samples of the milk before renneting, the curd at cutting, the half-whey removal, the final whey removal, the hooping of the curd, the cheese after pressing, the cheese after brining, after one week, after two weeks, after four weeks, and after six weeks were all taken for microbiological analysis. The growth of lactic acid bacteria during cheese production was unaffected by B. cereus.

Classify the following gas planets as terrestrial planets or gas giants

kkurt [141]

<h2>Answer:</h2><h3>Part 1.</h3><h3> Celestial body A is the largest planet in the solar system.</h3>

It is Jupiter which is a <u>Gas giants.</u>

Jupiter is mostly made of gas.

According to above statement, It is the Jupiter which largest planet in our solar system. Jupiter's mass is more than 300 times that of Earth, and its diameter, d, at 140,000 km.

<h3>Part 2. </h3><h3>Celestial body C has optimum conditions to sustain life.</h3>

It is earth which is a<u> terrestrial planet.</u>
Because it is mostly made of silicate rocks and minerals.

According to statement, earth is that planet because it has living optimum conditions. Like the oxygen concentration, water, plants etc.

Celestial body E has the most volcanoes in our solar system apart from earth. It is the second closest planet to the sun.

It is Venus and it is a<u> terrestrial planet.</u>

Venus orbits sun every 224.7 Earth days.

It has the longest rotation period of any planet and it rotates in opposite direction to most of the planets in the Solar System.

<h3>Part 4.</h3><h3>Celestial body H is the second largest planet in the solar system and has visible rings.</h3>

It is Saturn which is a <u>gas giant.</u>
Because it is mostly consists of gases and it also has ring of gases around itself.

it is 9.4 times as large as the Earth. It also has a large and bright ring system.

<h3>Part 5.</h3><h3>Celestial body D has 17 times more mass than earth and has gravity that is 1.14 times that of earth. </h3>

It is Neptune and it is a <u>gas giant</u>.
It has mostly gaseous composition, such as hydrogen and helium.

Neptune is the eighth and farthest known planet of the Solar System. It is also the third most massive planet.

<h3>Part 6.</h3><h3>Celestial body G has a core that consists of iron sulfide mixed with nickel and is the second smallest planet in the solar system.</h3>

It is mars and it is a<u> terrestrial planet</u>.
Mars is the second smallest planet while mercury is first smallest planet after the exclusion of Pluto from solar system.

The surface of mars is covered by talcum powder type dust. It contains elements besides silicon and oxygen, are iron, magnesium, aluminum, calcium, and potassium.

<h3>Part 7.</h3><h3>Celestial body I had a core composed of nickel iron alloy rock surrounded by an outer layer of hot fluid. The fluid contains water, ammonia, and methane body I has 27 moons .</h3>

This is Uranus and it is a<u> gas giant</u>.
is the seventh planet of the Solar System.

According to radius, it is on third number and according to mass it is forth largest planet. Its composition is more similar to Neptune.

<span>The invention of the microscope led to the development of a much more detailed classification system. Prior to the microscope, we believed the only life was life that we could visually see with the naked eye. However, with the invention of the microscope we were able to see that more life is contained in a small droplet of water than there are people on earth. It was eye-opening!</span>
