two molecules or moieties combine to form one single molecule, together with the loss of a small molecule. When this small molecule is water, it is known as a dehydration reaction; other possible small molecules lost are hydrogen chloride, methanol, or acetic acid.

Answer:

A dehydration synthesis reaction is best described as a chemical reaction in which small reactants combines to form larger molecules with loss of water.

Explanation:

When small molecules acts as reactants to form larger compounds with the loss of water molecules, we called this kind of reaction a "synthesis reaction". These reactions are typicall in biological systemas, when monomers combines to form polymers. For example, two aminoacids reacting to form a dimer, constitutes a synthesis reaction.

Softa [21]

Answer:

Mutualism

Explanation:

Organisms in an ecosystem interact with one another from time to time. The close interaction between two organisms is referred to as SYMBIOSIS. Symbiosis is of different types depending on the how it affects the involved organisms. The example in this question depicts MUTUALISM.

Mutualism is the type of symbiotic relationship between two organisms in which both organisms benefit from the relationship. This is the case of the LICHEN, which involves the Algae and Fungi. The algae benefits by making use of the water and minerals supplied by the fungi while the fungi benefits by using the food the algae produces via photosynthesis.

A virus is combined with a host cell in molten nutrient agar and then poured over a sterile nutrient agar plate. After the agar

maria [59]

Answer:

The correct answer is B. The virus can infect the host.

Explanation:

As the host and the virus both remain in the agar plate, the virus is capable of infecting the host cells.
The host cell multiplies and grows by utilising the nutrient from the agar medium.
After the virus particles infect the host, they replicate inside the host and produce new progeny virions which get released out of the host cell by killing it.
The newly formed virions infect other host cells and the process continues.
The killing of the host cells by the viruses result in the generation of clear zones on the agar plate which is also known as the zone of exclusion.
In the zone of exclusion region, the host cells have been killed by the viruses.
