Answer:

Choanocytes

Explanation:

Choanocytes are membranous flagellate cells lining the spongiocelium (central body cavity of <em>Porifera</em> kingdom animals) and other internal vibrating chambers of sponges.

The movement of its <u>flagella</u> creates the water stream that brings nutrients and gases. The nutrients are filtered by the choanocyte, which is not a solid structure, but rather a set of small erect rods separated by spaces.

Any organic particle or plant microorganism trapped in the choanocyte is routed down toward the cell body and endocyted, with intracellular digestion occurring in digestive vacuoles.

Hydrothermal vents deep in the ocean release extremely hot water, methane gas, and sulfur. Extreme bacteria thrive in this hosti
Reil [10]

Answer:

The organisms in that habitat including the extreme bacteria, will gradually decline

Explanation:

According to the question, an extreme bacteria lives and thrives in an hydrothermal vent where extremely hot water, methane gas, and sulfur are released. The hydrothermal vent located deep in the ocean is the habitat of the bacteria, and considering the fact that it thrives there means it is better adapted to do well in such extreme environment using the sulfur and methane gas produced by the vent for its development.

If the hydrothermal vent becomes inactive i.e. no production of sulfur and methane, and cold, the extreme bacteria might not survive as the conditions required for its optimal functioning are no longer met. The bacteria also makes up the base of the food web in that habitat (constituting organisms like mussels, tube works), meaning that, it begins the feeding chain in that habitat. Hence, a decline in the number of the bacteria will result in a decline in the number of other organisms dependent on the bacteria as energy source (food).

"clumping" or "clouding" in the mixture of the blood and the blood serum is caused by
luda_lava [24]
I think clumping is caused by the mixture of antigen and the corresponding antibody. Agglutination( clumping) is the process that occurs when an antigen is mixed with its corresponding antibody. This is commonly used in blood grouping. An example is the clumping of red blood cells in the presence of an antibody or complement. In blood transfusion Clumping indicates that the blood has reacted with a certain antibody and is therefore not compatible with blood containing that kind of antibody.
