Answer:
3. Polysaccharide carbohydrate
EXPLANATION:
The POLYSACCHARIDE capsule of Streptococcus Pneumoniae is the major virulence factor in it's invasion and subsequent infection.
The capsule helps to avoid phagocytosis which is a defence mechanism by the body.
The polysaccharide capsule also gives the bacterial organism several serotypes.
The pneumococcal vaccine is derived from the organism's capsule.
1) Aerobic Respiration 2) Photosynthesis
Aero means Air, or in this case Oxygen, so Aerobic Respiration needs air, Photosynthesis uses Carbon Dioxide, Water, and sunlight to create Oxygen and sugars

Answer:
After being hunted almost to extinction, the humpback whale population has rebounded dramatically. Rapidly melting Antarctica ice poses a threat to coastal cities, but there is at least one species that is benefiting: Humpback whales are flourishing these days, due to an abundance of krill.
Pre-hunting population size may have been as many as 200,000-300,000 whales. They were estimated to number around 2,300 in 1998 and to be increasing between 2.4-8.4% per year. The IWC is undertaking an assessment of Antarctic blue whales at present.
