<span>The long, narrow and curled bone shelf that protrudes into the breathing passage of the nose are called the nasal concha. The nasal concha, or also called turbinates divides the nasal airway into 4 passages. One of the passages is where the inhaled air passes through to the nasal mucosa which cleans the air in preparation for the lungs. It is the function of the nasal concha to regulate the pattern of breathing of humans and animals. The defining characteristic of the turbinates are the spongy bones in the nose.</span>

Scientists have a theory about the shape of the Earth's surface that is accepted worldwide. A group of scientists have proposed
Elan Coil [88]

Alright so, whenever experiments have been tried on the surface of standing water, this surface has always been found to be "level". If the Earth was an actual globe, the surface of all standing water would be convex (measuring less than 180 degrees). This could be experimented to prove that the Earth isn't a globe. Not to mention that rivers that flow hundred of miles towards the level of the sea without falling more than a few feet (the Nile River for example) which in a thousand miles only falls a foot. Now, with the Earths "convexity", a level expanse of this amount is very... incompatible which is more proof that the Earth is flat. However, there's still proof that the Earth is a globe. So, if you could go to the Harbor, I want you to watch a boat sail to the Horizon. Watch how the ship not only grows smaller, but also has the "illusion" of it sinking. This should be enough to show that there is some curvature to the Earths surface. Now, watch an Eclipse. Pay attention to the way that the moon moves. It creates an arch as it moves. Could we say that the moon move differently only when there's an eclipse, but that's just nonsense.

Hope this helps!

Lactobacillus in yogurt, some Escherichia coli in the intestines of humans and animals, and Rhizobium that fixes atmosphere nitr
alisha [4.7K]

Answer: a. True.

Explanation:

<em>Lactobacillus </em>is a genus of gram-positive, facultative or microaerophilic bacteria that produce lactic acid. <u>They are normally found in different parts of the body such as the mouth, digestive tract and vagina</u>. Lactobacilli usually do not cause disease, although they can cause dental caries. Some lactobacilli have a homofermentative metabolism, that is, they produce lactic acid from sugars, which makes their environment acidic and inhibits the growth of pathogenic bacteria. Some species of Lactobacillus are used in the industry for the production of yogurt, cheese and other fermented foods.

<em>Escherichia coli</em> is a bacterium that is part of the microbiota of the gastrointestinal tract of various animals. It is a gram-negative bacillus, facultative anaerobe, and the most abundant commensal of the microbiota of the gastrointestinal tract where, together with other microorganisms, it is essential for the correct functioning of the digestive process. It also participates in the production of B and K vitamins.

<em>Rhizobium </em>is a genus of gram-negative soil bacteria that fix atmospheric nitrogen and live in symbiosis with certain plants (such as leguminous plants) in their roots, after a process of infection induced by the plant itself through the secretion of lectin, to which they provide the nitrogen necessary for the plant to live and which in return gives it shelter. Fixation is the combination of molecular nitrogen (N2) with hydrogen or oxygen to give ammonium or oxides that are incorporated into the biosphere. Molecular nitrogen, which is the major component of the atmosphere, is inert and not directly usable by most living things. Therefore, it involves the incorporation of a significant amount of nitrogen into the biosphere.

<u>Therefore, all three are considered beneficial</u>.

Goryan [66]

Answer:

The history of Earth covers approximately 4 billion years (4,567,000,000 years), from Earth's formation out of the solar nebula to the present. Earth formed as part of the birth of the solar system: what eventually became the solar system initially existed as a large, rotating cloud of dust and gas.
