$\huge \sf{strain}$

A strain is a genetic variant or subtype of a microorganism (e.g., a virus, bacterium or fungus). Microbial strains can also be differentiated by their genetic makeup using metagenomic methods to maximize resolution within species.

Type strains are descendants of the original isolates used in species and subspecies descriptions, as defined by the Bacteriological Code [14], that exhibit all of the relevant phenotypic and genotypic properties cited in the original published taxonomic circumscription

I think this view is NOT compatible with either of these hypothesis illustrated above. This is because each hypothesis presents prokaryotes as two separate groups. Prokaryotes are unicellular organism that lacks a membrane-bound nucleus, mitochondria, or any other membrane bound organelle unlike the eukaryotes which has the membrane bound nucleus and other organelles.

The relationship exemplified by bees consuming nectar and carrying pollen from one flower to another is known as: A. Commensalis

ehidna [41]

Answer:

Explanation:

Ecological relationships exist between organisms in an ecosystem. MUTUALISM is one of these ecological relationships in which both organisms involved benefits from the relationship. It usually occurs in a way that the actions of one favors the other.

In this example, the bees feed on nectar produced by the flower a plant and carries pollen along when it feeds on the nectar produced by the flower of another plant. The bees are getting fed, thanks to the plant, while the plant is getting cross-pollinated, thanks to the bee.
