Answer: Sterilization refers to any process that eliminates, removes, kills, or deactivates all forms of life (in particular referring to microorganisms such as fungi, bacteria, viruses, spores, unicellular eukaryotic organisms such as Plasmodium, etc.) and other biological agents like prions present in a specific surface, object or fluid, for example food or biological culture media. Sterilization can be achieved through various means, including heat, chemicals, irradiation, high pressure, and filtration. Sterilization is distinct from disinfection, sanitization, and pasteurization, in that those methods reduce rather than eliminate all forms of life and biological agents present. After sterilization, an object is referred to as being sterile or aseptic.
Explanation:
Answer:
brine flies prefer warm temperatures to breed in, more brine flies means more food for the brine shrimp, so brine shrimp will be able to breed more as there's more food. and vice versa- in colder temperatures there would be less breeding of the flies, meaning less food for shrimps. therefore less breeding of shrimps)
It is the dependent variable.
Answer:
O Vestigial organs show that whales may have evolved from a common ancestor shared with land-dwelling animals
Explanation:
Vestigial organs are defined as the organs which are no longer beneficial for survival.
Whales can be observed with tiny, unused hip and pelvis bones which are vestigial organs for them as they are no longer beneficial for their survival. The vestigial organs are the evidence of evolution in organisms and in whales also these vestigial organs says that whales and land-dwelling animals may have common ancestors. Later on with evolution some land-dwelling animals might move to water systems and hip and pelvis bones become vestigial organs for them which along with time decreasing in the future offspring.
Hence, the correct answer is "Vestigial organs show that whales may have evolved from a common ancestor shared with land-dwelling animals".
