Dodder is a parasitic plant which has A. HAUSTORIAL ROOTS for support and absoption of nutrients from the host plant.
Dodder can not live alone. It grows from a seed and sprout from the ground but if it does not find a host within 10 days, it will die.
When the Dodder finds its host, it twines itself in a counter-clockwise direction around the stem of its host. The Dodder stem has bumps called "haustoria". These bumps are tightly pressed against the stem of the host plant and said bumps will eventually push their way inside the hosts' stem to pull the nutrients it needs to survive to the detriment of the host plant.
Dodder plant may be parasitic but it does not kill its own host instead it causes the growth of the host to be stunted.
Most of the nitrogen in earths atmosphere comes from bacteria.
Answer:
What you are saying because I don't understand
Even if the bacteria is absent from the food, several fungi, mycotoxins, protozoa me be present in the food.
- Foods are rarely sterile and often contain natural chemical substances. They contain a diverse population of microbes that come from many sources of the natural micro flora.
- From the time of harvest to the time of preparation and consumption, microbes contaminate the food.
- A food's microflora is primarily influenced by the type of microbe, the features of the food, contamination, and the conditions during preparation and storage.
- Foods may contain bacteria, fungus, protozoa, algae, viruses, and other microbial species.
- The absence of bacteria does not guarantee that the food is safe to consume because there may still be enterotoxins, mycotoxins, fungi, and other difficult-to-identify microorganisms present.
