Answer:

Dissimilatory- oxygen absent

Assimilatory- high concentration of nitrite

Explanation:

In assimilatory nitrate reduction, ammonium is produced and subsequently incorporated into biomass to build up e.g., proteins and nucleic acids. Dissimilatory nitrate reduction is a process for energy conservation, in which nitrate is used as an electron acceptor in the (near) absence of oxygen . Dissimilatory nitrate reduction and nitrate storage in particular are physiological life traits that provide microbes with environmental flexibility (i.e., metabolic activity under both oxic and anoxic conditions) and resource independence (i.e., anaerobic metabolism without immediate nitrate supply), respectively. Such life traits are especially important in environments that are temporarily anoxic and/or nitrate-free and they may have developed as a “life strategy” in both prokaryotes and eukaryotes

g100num [7]

Answer:

i can only define the terms for you.

Explanation:

chromosome - a threadlike structure of nucleic acids and protein found in the nucleus of most living cells, carrying genetic information in the form of genes.

chromatid - each of the two threadlike strands into which a chromosome divides longitudinally during cell division, each containing a double helix of DNA.

gene - a distinct sequence of nucleotides that forms a part of a chromosome, the order of which determines the order of monomers in a polypeptide or nucleic acid molecule which a cell or virus that may synthesize

What conclusion about the bacteria domain could be made from the phylogenetic tree below?
Elden [556K]

Answer: The correct answer is -

D. Eukarya has similar evolutionary traits to archaea.

A phylogenetic tree (also known as evolutionary tree) is a diagrammatic representation (in the form of branch diagram) showing the evolutionary relationships among various organisms. It is constructed on the basis of similarities or differences in the genetic or physical characteristics of various species.

In the given phylogenetic tree, archaea domain shows more similarities to the domain eukarya as it has descended after the domain bacteria.

Thus, option D) is the right answer.
