Answer and Explanation:
Example of a food-web:
(1) Algae --> (2) Protozoas --> (3) Krill --> (4) Cephallopods --> (5) Medium sized dolphin --> (6) Large Dolphin
The trophic web is the process of energy transference through a series of organisms, in which every organism feeds on the preceding one and becomes food for the next one.
1) The first link is an autotroph organism or producer, such as a vegetable, that can synthesize organic matter from inorganic matter. In this example, the autotroph organisms are algae, that make use of sunlight and inorganic matter.
The next links are the consumers:
2) Herbivores are primary consumers and feed on producers. In this example, herbivore organisms are protozoan.
3) Krills are the secondary consumers and feed on protozoans.
4) Some species of cephalopods feed on krill, among other species.
5) Specialized Cetaceans such as the Risso´s dolphin, feed especially on cephalopods, as they lack upper teeth and they only have a few teeth in their jaws.
6) The killer whale is a big sized-dolphin and a very important predator. It feeds on many animals, and one of them is the Risso´s dolphin.
Answer:
time; point
Explanation:
The complete question is as follows:
The shortest length of time required to kill all test microbes at a specified temperature is the thermal death __________ whereas the lowest temperature required to kill all microbes in a sample within 10 minutes is the thermal death _________.
time; point
window; point
point; time
time; temperature
- When a population of bacteria gets killed due to exposure to high temperatures then this is termed as thermal death.
- The time taken to kill a specific microbe at a specific temperature is termed as the thermal death time. The length of the time taken depends on the nature of the target microbe and hence, varies from one to another.
- The lowest temperature that will kill all the microbes in a sample within ten minutes is defined as the thermal death point. The temperature at which the microbes get killed within 10 minutes also varies from one microbe to another.
- Thermal death results in the disruption of the cell membranes of the microbes and hence can kill the microbes.
