Rashid [163]

Answer:

The correct ecological sequence regarding this case, to answer your question: What is the correct sequence of ecological roles played by the bacterium in the situation decribed here, would be: 1. mutualism, 2. Parasitism and finally 3. Nutrient recycler.

Explanation:

Ecological balance comes when species interact, and help each other out, by carrying out tasks that the other species cannot perform. When this happens, both species benefit from the presence of the other, and thus are kept in balance. However, conditions may change that will affect this balance.

In this case, we have a bacteria and a plant that are ecologically balanced with each other: the plant provides nutrients to the bacteria, and the bacteria helps the plant by maintaining other microorganisms away. However, when the conditions of the plant change, giving the bacteria access to its insides, which are more nutrient-rich, than the outside, these bacteria do not waste time and infect the plant, until it kills, and then decomposes, the plant. Given the sequence, the first part is known as mutualism: to species sharing benefits. Parsitism, because the bacteria infected the plant and lived now off it, destroying it. And finally, nutrient recycler because the bacteria breaks down the plant, decomposes it, returning to the ecosystem nutrients that were inside the plant.

Which kind of diagram shows the amount of organic matter in the trophic levels of an ecosystem?
wariber [46]

Pyramid biomass 

<span>Pyramid biomass shows how energy are passed at each tropics level and it is a graphical representation that shows the extents of biomass per unit area at different tropic level with an ecological system. Also, biomass is the food available for the next tropic level in a food chain and they can be used as a source of renewable energy. </span>

Write function of snakes hard scales
Goryan [66]

Answer:

The answer to this question is given below in this explanation section.

Explanation:

                  "function of snakes"

Snakes are elongated,legless,carnivorous reptile of the suborder serpents.Like all other squamates,snakes are exothermic,amniotic vertebrates covered in over applying scales.Many species of snakes have skulls with several more joints than their lizard ancestors,enabling them to swallow prey much larger  than their heads with their highly mobile jaws.To accommodate their narrow bodies,snakes,oared organ appear one in front of other instead of side by side,and most have only one functional lungs.Some species retain a pelvic girdle with a pair of vestigial claws on either side of the cloaca.Legless lizard have eyelid and external ear.

A scale protect the body of the snakes,aids it in locomotion,allows moisture to be retained within,alters the surface characteristics such as roughness to aid in camouflage,and in prey capture (such as Acrochordus).

Snake scale originates from the epidermis.The integument of the snakes in covered with two primary scale type,both originating from the epidermis.Small scale over the dorsum and lateral surface of the snake.Whereas larger scales cover the vent rum.

Oxidative damage to DNA can often result in the alteration of a single nucleotide.
Harman [31]

Answer:

Repair mechanism for base cleavage (BER)

Explanation:

Repair by base cleavage (BER)

The altered bases are specifically recognized by glycosylases and removed, generating an AP site. The hole is filled by a DNA polymerase that takes the healthy strand as a template. This system arises not only by exposure to external agents, but also by the cell's own activity.

In case of damage in more than one nucleotide, repair by nucleotide excision (NER) is performed.

Nucleotide excision repair (NER)

The damaged area is recognized by UvrA and B, then A and B separate and UvrC enters which forms a complex with endonuclease activity with B. This enzyme cuts the T-dimer and the gap is filled by a DNA polymerase. There is also the TC-NER system (transcription-coupled nucleotide repair system). The alteration of these mechanisms gives rise to diseases such as: Xeroderma pigmentosum, Trichotiodystrophy or Cockayne Syndrome
