Answer:

Option b. Lowering the pH to kill pathogenic bacteria is correct answer.

Explanation:

bacterial motors are sensitive to pH.  By decreasing the pH bacterial motors stops working. This was identified in a new research.  But, with the weak acids and a lower internal pH they slow and ultimately stop moving (became dead).

Reference: Powell, K. Acid stops bacteria swimming. Nature (2003).

How do sulfur and phosphorus move from the biotic to the abiotic pools during their cycles? A) Primary consumers eat producers.
worty [1.4K]

Answer:D) Decomposers break down the remains of producers and consumers

Explanation:A biotic pool is a tidal pool with diverse and changing habitats of living factors. We can say they are important mini ecosystems within the larger ecosystem.

The abiotic pool involves the elemental phases of nature,the non living parts of the ecosystem. Decomposition (break down) of elements/organic compounds is the characteristic bridge between both pools into what is known as nutrients.

This tell us that the ultimate dead part of producers and consumers are used up in this process.

Some of the nutrients released in the biogeochemical cyclic process includes sulfur and phosphorus and they move through the ecosystem.

Note: The biogeochemical cycle is a pathway of movement for chemical elements.

The chemical elements in nature moves through both biotic and abiotic components via abiotic and biotic interaction in the ecosystem

Few abiotic factors includes rocks, air, water, and chemicals while biotic factors includes living organisms activities.

All living and non living elements of nature play vital roles in the great biogeochemical cycle.

Consequences of human interaction with the natural environment
pochemuha

Answer:

Humans impact the physical environment in many ways: overpopulation, pollution, burning fossil fuels, and deforestation. Changes like these have triggered climate change, soil erosion, poor air quality, and undrinkable water.

Explanation:

So, What Happens if Pollution Continues to Increase? ... Breathing air pollution hampers the functioning of lungs among healthy people resulting in respiratory inflammation and heart problems. Living in a polluted area and breathing toxic air increases the risk of cancer. Air pollution weakens the immune system

Give an example of how an organism can use surface tension?
aliya0001 [1]
Insects, such as water striders, and spiders, such as fisher spiders, can glide or scamper across the surface of water. These critters are small enough that their weight can be supported almost entirely by surface tension, the relatively weak forces that hold water molecules together.




Surface tension of water helps creatures(mostly of insecta class such as water striders) to walk on water. ... it also helps water to move up the xylem tissue of higher plants without breaking up

select all of the following that are examples of how organisms respond to external stimuli. multiple select question. a person r
Airida [17]

The answer is a person removes their hand after touching a hot stove and a person turns their head toward the source of loud noise.

External stimuli are factors outside of the body that is taken in by receptors and will lead to a response. Examples of external stimuli include temperature changes, vision, hearing, tasting, smelling, and even sunlight for plants.
