Foodborne illness is the contamination that results from the spread of bacteria from meat to vegetable. Various types of pathogenic micro-organisms get access to food, which is rich in nutrients and allows bacteria to flourish. When such contaminated foods are eaten, they cause foodborne illness.
Answer:
Option-C
Explanation:
The sugar alcohols are the carbohydrates which are neither considered sugars nor alcohols but they partially resemble the structure of both of these sugars and alcohol.
The sugar alcohols are naturally present in the vegetables and fruits but they are also artificially synthesised like xylitol, lactitol, mannitol and others.
They are considered the alternative from of sugar but they provide less energy as compared to carbohydrates like they provide about 0-3 kcal per gram whereas sugar provides 4 kcal per gram.
This difference is due to the reason that they are not completely absorbed by the human body and also they are incompletely metabolized therefore provide less energy.
Thus, Option-C is the correct answer.
Cat (Australia); lots of cats became feral and they reproduce very fast. They became the apex predator and the native species have no defense system for them, so the cats brought tens of species on the verge of extinction (mainly placental mammals).
Fox (Australia); became an apex predator in the lack of competition, and damages the populations of native small placental mammals.
Hair (Australia); reproduces much quicker than the native species of mammals, increased significantly in numbers, and out competes the native species for the food sources.
African bee (the Americas); much more aggressive and stronger than the native bees and systematically kills their populations.
Grey squirrel (Britain); reproduces quicker than the red squirrel, is bigger, and out competes for food, brought it on the verge of extinction.
Answer: B. coniferous forests.
Explanation:
Coniferous forests are the terrestrial biomes which receives an annually 300 to 900 millimeters precipitation. These forests exhibits trees which undergoes special adaptations in the scarcity of water. The forests exhibit coniferous trees which means instead of leaves they posses needles and instead of flowers they have cones. These adaptations helps in preventing the water loss through transpiration.
Answer:
Abiotic factor.
Explanation:
Soil type is an abiotic factor for an earthworm. The soil type helps an earthworm to collect food and increase the population.
Sunlight, soil, water, and rocks are those abiotic factors that contribute to earthworms to obtain their food and to survive under the soil or upper side of the soil.
Like earthworms, many other organisms depend on the abiotic factors for their livelihood.
