Biology

nadya68 [22]3 years ago

Answer:

Heterotrophic microbes, bacteria

Explanation:

The chemical waste is digested in a treatment plant with the help of microbial action. The heterotrophic bacteria present in the waste serve in the process. These bacteria digest the organic matter present in the waste into simpler substances and thereby help in making the waste less polluting before its disposal into the environment.  

For example, methanogens anaerobically breakdown the organic matter present in the sewage and also produce useful biogas.

if we looked at weather balloon data taken at 12:00 noon instead of 12:00 midnight, what do you think we would see in that data?
Gemiola [76]
“Remember, we are ultimately trying to explain how hailstorms form. We now know the air is colder higher up in the atmosphere than it is near the ground, which helps us understand where it might be cold enough for hailstones to form.
Our next step is to figure out why the air up high is colder. Based on what we have figured out from the weather balloon data, if we gathered more data by moving closer to the ground, what do you think we would see in that data?
In addition, if we looked at weather balloon data taken at 12:00 noon instead of 12:00 midnight, what do you think we would see in that data?
Do you think we would see the same patterns? Why or why not?” Hope this helps if not write in the comments maybe I will be able to find other answers that might help you. If helped mark me the brainiest!! THESE ARE QUOTES DO NOT COPY ITS IS PLAGIARISM!!

Mycoplasmas differ from other bacteria in that they Lack a cell wall.

Mycoplasmas are different from bacteria as it can cause a wide range of infections and diseases. Mycoplasmas are phenotypically distinguished from other bacteria by their small size and complete absence of a cell wall. Lack of cell wall can be used to separate the mycoplasms from bacteria. It is a genus of bacteria that, like other members of the class Mollicutes, lack a cell wall around their cell membranes. Peptidoglycan is absent. This property makes them naturally resistant to antibiotics that target cell wall synthesis. They can be parasitic or saprotrophic
