Nematodes are wormlike organisms which can be seen with naked eye, live in water-filled pore spaces in the soil. Nematodes are in large number in the upper soil layers where organic matter, plant roots, and other resources are most abundant.
The functions of nematodes:
- Free-living nematodes decompose organic material into nutrients and cycled them in the soil by feeding on some bacteria and fungi.
- Nematodes help in distributing bacteria and fungi through the soil and along roots by carrying live and dormant microbes.
- They used as food for higher predators, soil microorthropodes.
- They eat disease-causing organisms, thus suppress their growth.
- They acts as potential bio- control agents.
Answer:
<u>D) the nucleic acid (either DNA or RNA)</u>
<u />
Explanation:
Phages, or bacteriophages are viruses that infect bacteria.They have varying shapes, and sizes, and may contain one of two kinds of nucleic acid; these are RNA and DNA.
The nucleic acids are made up of nucleotides. These are genetic storage biomolecules made up of the monomers ribonucleic acid (RNA) deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA).
Answer:
The correct answer is 4,960,000
Explanation:
If a yeast cell divides into two yeast cells in 120 minutes that means a yeast cell needs 2 hours to get double. So according to the question 2 hours ago a yeast colony consisted of 310,000 cells that means the present colony should have 620,000 cells.
So after six hours from now, this population will divide three times in six hours because the generation time of yeast cell is 2 hour and each time the number of cells will double.
Therefore, in first time the number will increase to 1,240,000(620000*2), the second time the number will increase to 2,480,000(1240000*2) and after final division, the number will be 4,960,000(2480000*2).
Therefore after 6 hours from now, the approximate number of yeast cells will be 4,960,000.
A stationary front is the least likely to be associated with rainfall.
