<u>Answer:</u>

D. Antimicrobial peptides; disrupt positively charged bacterial membranes

The above skin defenses and its mechanism is mismatched

<u>Explanation</u>:

Antimicrobial peptides which is considered as a natural antibiotic. It is produced by all types of living organisms for example plants, animals, and also bacteria. It is also known as host peptides. The rich source of antimicrobial peptides is noticed as amphibian skin glands. It is different and a diverse class of molecule. It is commonly between 12 and 50 amino acids. It is also called as innate immune response which is found among all classes of life. It disrupts positively charged bacterial membrane, fungi, enveloped viruses and cancerous cell

____ take longer to decompose so they need to be finely cut
Grace [21]
Hello there!

Let's take for example plastic, plastic would take a good while for it to decompose. It wouldn't make sense for it to be "food produce" because food does decompose very quickly. Wood could be the answer, but wood wouldn't take that long for it to decompose, all it could use is some constant water and rain, and then the wood would then give old and just decompose. But even thought that is the case, wood cuttings would be the answer.

Vegetable peels would not take a long time.Most likely, they are probably to fastest in this list above. So, based from your options, your correct answer would be (wood cuttings).

(option a) would be your answer.

The options that best describes the planetesimals are:

  • Option A. They are the origins of planets.

  • Option B. They formed from gas and dust.

  • Option D. They are believed to have developed in debris disks.

The descriptions can be explained as:

  • It is believed that planets formation occurred through planetesimals. The formation happened from gas, dust particles and debris.

  • By the process of accretion, the discs coalesced and became bigger and solid over time. This bigger mass started attracting other matters towards each other because of gravitational force.

  • This pull resulted in either breaking or creation a bigger mass of pieces known as planetesimals. The collision continued to become bigger and solid planets we know today.

Therefore, options A, B and D are correct.
