Answer:
E) a natural mutagen.
Explanation:
Aflatoxin is a toxin byproduct produced by the fungi especially Aspergillus molds which grows attached to the roots of various crops like the peanuts, wheat and many others.
The aflatoxin is considered a carcinogen and a mutagen as it causes certain changes in the structure of DNA. The aflatoxin mainly affects the liver and causes a mutation in the genes of the liver and since the aflatoxin is produced naturally by the molds, therefore, is considered a natural mutagen.
Thus, option-E is correct.
In these choices, the correct option would be 2 pyruvate molecules per glucose.
In the process of glycolysis, it breaks down glucose molecules and thereby produces 2 ATP, 2 NADH, and 2 pyruvate molecules.
<em>The Great Barrier Reef in Australia is known as the largest coral reef in the world and the largest living thing on Earth where it houses countless species of sea animals. </em>
Its distinguishing or distinct abiotic feature is its shallow waters.
Sunlight is one of the most important factors in an ecosystem necessary for the organism's survival. The reef mostly has shallow waters so it is easier for the light to penetrate the water for the organisms to use. Even the reefs are visible from the outer space due to its shallow waters.
