Lactobacillus<span> is a genus of Gram-positive, facultative anaerobic or microaerophilic, rod-shaped, non-sporeforming bacteria. They are a major part of the lactic acid bacteria group (example: they convert sugars to lactic acid).</span>
The correct answer is option (A) leaves > deer > wolf.
A food chain is a linear sequence of organisms through which the nutrients and energy flow as one organisms feeds on the other. They show organisms starting from the producers and end with consumers or sometimes with detrivores or decomposers. Each level of the food chain is called the trophic level. The producers which use solar energy and prepare their food occupy the first trophic level, followed by the primary, secondary, tertiary, quaternary consumers occupying the next trophic level.
In the food chain given above, leaves > deer > wolf, deers feed on the leaves which are maximum in number comparitively, wolf feeds on the deer which are comparitively more in number than the wolves. This is the correct sequence of food chain showing the tranfer of energy and decreasing number of organisms with subsequent increase in the trophic levels.
<em>Answer: In dehydration synthesis reactions, a water molecule is formed as a result of generating a covalent bond between two monomeric components in a larger polymer. In hydrolysis reactions, a water molecule is consumed as a result of breaking the covalent bond holding together two components of a polymer.</em>
<u>Answer</u>: a. This represents the requirements for the highest quality scientific methodology.
This question is part of the problem solving value rubric created by the AACU (The Association of American College and Universities). The number 4 represents the score assigned to the experimental design and the text illustrates the requirements needed to reach it.
a - is the highest score - the capstone
b&c - the milestones
d - the benchmark - the minimum score needed to pass.
Anything lower than the benchmark will be assigned a 0 and failed.
