This activity would benefit the sea slugs with chloroplasts as they can be able to synthesize some of their own food. Sea slugs are marine invertebrates that feed on algae, plankton and decaying matter in water. When some sea slugs ingest algae, they store chloroplasts obtained from the algae into their own digestive cells. Chloroplast is an organelle that contains chlorophyll (green pigment) used in photosynthesis. The chloroplasts continue to perform photosynthesis within the sea slugs and hence, keeping them nourished.

An obligate anaerobe bacterium was grown in two test tubes filled with media rich in glucose. One tube was sealed to produce ana
liubo4ka [24]
The answer is A. 

Glucose in the sealed tube will be used up by the obligate anaerobe bacterium. This is because it is the only environment that satisfies the condition of having no air or oxygen for the organism to survive. The unsealed tube will obviously have air entering and exiting inside and therefore will not be a suitable environment for the organism. The control tube will have no change in color since it is uninoculated or in other words, no organism was put inside of it.
