The bacteria species known as Escherichia coli is capable of using oxygen to produce energy in a process known as respiration. I

Answer:

(C). respond to stimuli in the environment.

Explanation:

Response towards the stimuli is a major characteristic of life. Stimuli is anything, which causes a living being to react to stay in balance.

Escherichia coli is a bacterium that uses process of respiration for energy production. It can perform both aerobic respiration depending upon the presence or absence of oxygen (stimulus).

As this bacterium is responding to surrounding stimulus (oxygen), it describes a characteristic of life.

Thus, the correct answer is option (C).

Further microscopic analysis of negatively stained specimens reveals a colorless ring around each of the spherical cells against
Tanya [424]

Answer:

b. a capsule

Explanation:

The capsule is mainly made up of polysaccharides and surrounds many bacteria. Capsule staining includes mixing of the bacterial cells with dye and spread out in a thin film on a slide. After air-drying, the cells appear as light-colored structures present in a relatively dark blue-black background. This occurs since the dye particles cannot penetrate either the cell or its capsule. Therefore, the given slide with a colorless ring around the cells in a dark background represents the presence of a capsule around the observed cells.

Topic: Blood Sugar
Alja [10]

Answer: Blood sugar/blood glucose levels are controlled by negative feedback involving the hormones human insulin and glucagon.

Explanation:

Insulin is produced in the increased , if there is too little glucose in the blood the pancreas is triggered and released more insulin to change glucagon into glucose, this regulates the amount of glucose in the blood. However if there is too much glucose in the blood (after a sugary meal) the pancreas is triggered to use insulin to lower the blood glucose levels, this is called negative feedback. This works by storing glucose as glucagon in the blood, insulin can be objected into the blood stream if a person needs it straight away(eg type 1 diabetes.)

3. How the different bictic components interact among themselves ?​
egoroff_w [7]

Answer:

How do biotic components interact with abiotic components?

In general, abiotic factors like rock, soil, and water interact with biotic factors in the form of providing nutrients. ... The water, phosphorus, nitrogen, and carbon cycles are examples of this. Another way biotic and abiotic factors interact is that biotic factors often change the geology and geography of an area.

How can these forelimbs explain how life changes over time?
Sonbull [250]

Answer:

The correct answer would be divergent evolution showing by homologous organs.

Explanation:

In the illustration human arm, the flipper of the dolphin, wings of bat and forearm of frog are shown. All  these four forelimbs have a different function, however, these forelimbs are having the same underlying anatomy.

The organs having basic structure and origin, but different functions are known as homologous organs. These organs point towards the same ancestor from these organisms evolved. They show a case of divergent evolution.

When related species become less similar in order to adapt and survive in different conditions, evolution is called divergent evolution.

Thus, these forelimbs provide evidence for divergent evolution.
