Sever21 [200]

The correct answer is: B. Fungus X is a common mold, and fungus Y is a chytrid.

A mold is a fungus that grows in the form of multicellular filaments called hyphae which form a network known as a mycelium. This group of fungi is important in biotechnology and food science (for example production of foods, beverages, antibiotics, pharmaceuticals and enzymes).

Chytrid ("little pot") refers to group of fungi with chitin cell walls, a posterior flagellum and absorptive nutrition. They reproduce with zoospores (motile asexual spores).

As scientists advise about potential risks due to climate change, many coastal areas are preparing for a higher risk of impact P
wariber [46]

Since the coast water is rising,it would be hard to find fresh water. The people would not be able to use the water,because it would be contaminated with bacteria. If all of the ice does melt,most of the fresh water will turn to salt water,and we would have to adapt to a new way of life. People would have to live on higher land,there would be no one to grow crops,and their would be no way that trees would survive,meaning we would not be able to breathe.The worst part of this all is that the Earth's temperature will sky rocket,and it will be so hot,the Earth will kinda be like a huge hurricane.(lol)

Hope this helped and good luck!

Engaging in aerobic exercise makes <u>skeletal muscles more resistant to fatigue</u>

Explanation:

Aerobic exercises increase muscle strength and endurance.

Aerobic exercises use the oxygen present in the muscles to generate energy and prevent lactic acid buildup. These exercises help to utilize the fat reserves for energy production.

These exercises are a series of short and long duration which induce sustained periodic muscle contractions.

These activities mainly act on Type 1 or the slow-twitch muscle fibers which can sustain the maximal amount of contractions for even a long period.  

The application of slow-twitch muscle fibers and the presence of oxygen together helps to build the resistance to muscle fatigue of skeletal muscles.  

Anaerobic exercises are resistance exercises which builds muscle mass.
