Why did you cut out the chromosomes in pairs

1 answer:

7 0

Well, I don't fully understand your question. I think I know what you're getting at though.

In a system of sexual reproduction, you have genes coming from both an egg and the sperm. Therefore, it'll only contain half the total amount of chromosomes (46 in humans). A sperm will have 23, and the egg will have the other 23. Is that what you meant why the chromosomes are cut out in pairs? If that wasn't your question, please elaborate and I'll return to answer it to the best of my capabilities.

Different microbes grow in a wide variety of environmental conditions; however, most have preferences for certain temperatures,

lesya692 [45]

Answer:

this is a TRUE statement.

Explanation:

Different microbes grow in a wide variety of environmental conditions; however, most have preferences for certain temperatures, pH, and atmospheric gases because although microbes are widespread in their occurrence,they are found almost everywhere,in the air,water,soil,food,decaying matter,oil deposits,in plants etc.

but their number and their types vary according to the locality and environmental conditions.

Although, some microbes are always present and contribute towards natural flora BUT besides this others are present in specific environments such as some in hot springs bearing very HIGH TEMPERATURE RANGES for example: Thermus aquaticus.

some of them inhabit the acidic or alkaline soil feeding on HUMUS.

Most of the microbes prefer ATMOSPHERIC GASES i.e some require oxygen for their survival .For example: Pseudomonas.

some don't require O2 for survival i.e Spirochete.

IN SHORT, most of the microbes have preferences for various environmental conditions.
