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).

Genes contain the information needed to make _____ that form our traits.
Gemiola [76]
Ans: Most genes contain the information needed to make functional molecules called proteins. (A few genes produce regulatory molecules that help the cell assemble proteins.) The journey from gene to protein is complex and tightly controlled within each cell.

Scientists calculated the net primary productivity at two different forest sites. Both forests have the same gross primary produ
Katen [24]

Answer:

The answer is C.

Explanation:

Net Primary Productivity is a term that is used to express the difference between CO2 that is taken in by the plant with photosynthesis minus CO2 that the plant releases.

The two forest sites given in the example may not have the same biodiversity and the same species of plants so we can't be sure of option B.

Again for the same reasons, we can't be sure of option D because we do not know the specific plant species in each forest since they are in different areas.

Option A can be ruled out for the same reasons, the lack of information about the forest sites, since we do not know the death rate of the plants in either of the forests.

Option C can be true because forest A has a higher net primary productivity rate which can be an indication of lower respiratory activity hence lower CO2 production, resulting in the given higher net primary productivity.

I hope this answer helps.
