Although bacteria can be seen without staining, not all of their characteristics can be visible. Thus, with staining one can see if the bacteria is gram positive or negative, the outer wall's or capsule's structure, the exact size and texture of the surface etc. Without staining, it would be very difficult if not impossible to differentiate between different bacteria types.
Fixing a bacteria allows the scientist to immobilize and preserve it. Thus a complex study can be performed over a longer period of time. The bacteria can also be preserved in order to be restudied at a later date.
Answer:
C) most of the muscle's energy is produced in mitochondria.
Explanation:
The activities such as running a marathon require aerobic endurance to allow prolonged and sustained muscle contraction for a longer duration (few hours) without fatigue. These activities rely on the production of ATPs in mitochondria through the process of anaerobic cellular respiration.
The process of aerobic cellular respiration produces a large number of ATPs to sustain prolonged muscle contraction. Slow oxidative muscle fibers that contain a large amount of myoglobin and are rich in mitochondria are involved in such activities.
Answer:
D) The area was on land.
Explanation:
We can tell that this is the answer because of the process of elimination.
- It is not A or C, because there is not enough information given to us to determine whether the area was hot or cold.
- It is not B, because ferns do not grow in the ocean. (Unless it a specific type of water fern that have not heard about... but this is <u>highly unlikely</u>, so don't worry.)
- This leaves us with: D) The area was on land. This is the correct answer because ferns do grow on land, and a sedimetary rock containing a fern fossil is much more likely to be found on land than on the ocean floor.
Hope I could help!
