Decomposers break down dead animals and plants. They usually benefit producers by releasing nutrients back in the soil.
Gram's staining is a differential staining technique that employs a primary stain like crystal violet and a counter stain like safranin along with the decolourizing agent alcohol and a mordant called the Gram's iodine.
Iodine is a mordant added after the primary stain. It fixes the stain by combining with it to enchance the staining ability. This forms an insoluble crystal violet iodine complex appearing purple under the microscope. These microorganisms are classified as Gram positive.
If addition of iodine is skipped, crystal violet is not fixed on the slide and the insoluble complex is not formed. The cells are decolourized by alcohol and are stained by the counter stain safranin making the Gram positive cells wrongly indentified as Gram negative due to its pink colouration. Thus, the slide will show all the cells as pink coloured Gram negative cells.
Answer:
When you exercise and your muscles work harder, your body uses more oxygen and produces more carbon dioxide. To cope with this extra demand, your breathing has to increase from about 15 times a minute (12 litres of air) when you are resting, up to about 40–60 times a minute (100 litres of air) during exercise.
Explanation:
Based on the above sources, the most economical to use is the hydroelectric, since there is a fast-moving current in the river. Also, it is the commonly used energy-generation process. For wind turbine, it would require a minimum of 8kph to power the wind turbine, in this case is not sufficient. Coal deposit is not likely an option because this has some environmental concerns. Solar is not also an option since the village frequently has rainy days.
