<span>Cell code for enzymes that can convert other molecules into carbohydrates, nucleic acids and lipids. Humans can synthesize 11 out of the 20 amino acids and bacteria can synthesize all 20. Plus bacteria can synthesize many of the vitamins that humans cannot, including vitamin C. As far as humans are concerned, we can make carbohydrates and glycogen from glucose. We use some amino acids to make nucleic acids and we can synthesize lipids and cholesterol from acetyl coA. There are certain types of fatty acids we can't synthesize and we must get them from our diet.</span>

Due to the short-term environmental change of a drought, much of the soil in an area can no longer support a species of wildflow

Fofino [41]

This change best illustrates the 3rd answer choice, Loss of Habitat.

The plants aren't migrating, but are rather only surviving in areas where there is enough moisture to support life. The wildflowers are not adapting to grow in dryer conditions, and the species is not going extinct, as there are still some areas where the plants can get enough moisture.

Hope this helped!

This semester, you will be completing a lab using the model organism Sordaria. Sordaria is an ascomycete fungus that is commonly

grin007 [14]

Explanation:

In biology, the term spore designates a single-celled or multicellular microscopic body that is formed for dispersion and survival purposes for a long time (dormancy) under adverse conditions, and which is generally a haploid cell. In many eukaryotic beings, it is a fundamental part of their reproduction, originating a new organism by dividing by mitosis (especially in fungi) or meiosis (plants), without having to merge with another cell, while in some bacteria it is instead a inactive stage, resistant to desiccation and for non-reproductive survival purposes. The term derives om the Greek σπορά (sporá), "seed".

The spore is an important element in the biological life cycles of plants, fungi, algae and some protozoa, which usually produce spores in structures called sporangia. In plants, spores are gametophytes within their life cycle and allow the dispersion of the propagules at the same time. Most fungi produce spores; those that do not are called asporogenic fungi.
