g The primary detrimental effect of the presence of large amounts of biodegradable organic materials in water is ________. The p
Lelu [443]

Answer:

It causes oxygen depletion in the water

Explanation:

When the amounts of organic matter in the water are significant, the activity of aerobic bacteria and other decomposers increases.  

Organic matter suffers decomposition in the presence of oxygen. Microorganisms degrade it while consuming dissolved oxygen in the process. Bacteria show fast and exponential growth, so the more organic matter, the more aerobic bacteria, and the less available oxygen in the water.

Organisms that usually inhabit these waters are affected by the lack of oxygen. Plants, algae, animals, and other invertebrates that need it to survive, find themselves limited in these environmental conditions. Eventually, they dye and contribute with more organic matter.

Little by little, sedimentation begins caused by the death of vegetables and animals, sinking in the bottom.

When oxygen disappears, anaerobic bacteria grow and act, producing fermentation.

4. Describe the interrelationship between cell, tissue and organ of human body. ​
Zinaida [17]

Answer and Explanation:

Cell: Molecules get grouped in alive cellular units that have auto replication capabilities. It is the smallest structural unit capable of functioning by itself. A cell is capable of communicating with other cells, their membranes delimitate them and protect them, constituting a selectively permeable barrier, receives signals from the exterior and responds in different ways to the different signals. There are different cells with different sizes, shapes, and forms.        

Tissue: A tissue is the organization and association of the same type of cells. Each tissue performs different functions. These tissues can be epithelial, adipose, nervous, muscular, and etcetera.

Organ: An organ is composed of different tissues that work together in a more complex function. Tissues form structures such as the heart, lung, kidney, brain, and etcetera. Each organ has its function.                                                                        

Organ systems: When different organs get associated and work together, they become a system. Working together in a stable way organs maintain homeostasis.

What evidence supports the theory of endosymbiosis?
Liono4ka [1.6K]

The first piece of evidence that needed to be found to support the endosymbiotic hypothesis was whether or not mitochondria and chloroplasts have their own DNA and if this DNA is similar to bacterial DNA. This was later proven to be true for DNA, RNA, ribosomes, chlorophyll (for chloroplasts), and protein synthesis.
