Anni [7]

Answer:

When organisms use urea, ammonia is generated during incubation, which makes the reaction of these media alkaline

Explanation:

Urea broth preparation:

Suspend 3.87 grams of the medium in 100 ml of distilled water without heating. When the powder dissolves, sterilize by filtration. Dispense quantities of 0.5 to 2 ml in small sterile tubes. Larger volumes may be used but the reactions will be slower. Do not sterilize in autoclave.

Do not boil the medium.

If no filter is available, the medium can be sterilized at 100-110 ° C for 10 minutes. If the medium is prepared and inoculated immediately, it provides good results without sterilization.

Carbon dioxide is released when which of the following phenomena occur?
LenaWriter [7]

Answer:

Carbon dioxide is added to the atmosphere by human activities. When hydrocarbon fuels ( wood, coal, natural gas, gasoline, and oil) are burned, carbon dioxide is released. During combustion or burning, carbon from fossil fuels combine with oxygen in the air to form carbon dioxide and water vapor.

These natural hydrocarbon fuels come from once-living organisms and are made from carbon and hydrogen, which release carbon dioxide and water when they burn.

Explanation:

So the answer is Fossil Fuels.
