Answer:
This question lacks options, the options are:
a) Negative primary production
b) Net primary production
c) Secondary production
d) Negative secondary production
e) Positive primary production
The correct answer is b.
The total amount of chemical energy produced by autotrophs, such as plants and phytoplankton, is called gross primary production. The energy that remains after plants use some of the gross primary production to fuel their own metabolism is known as <u>net primary production</u>.
Explanation:
Net Primary Production (NPP) is the value that results from the difference between gross production and respiration of the primary producers themselves. It manifests as growth and / or reproduction. It represents the matter and energy available for the next trophic level, that is, the net primary production is what is left after subtracting the energy that plants use for their metabolism or maintenance (such as breathing, tissue construction and reproduction).
The answer is true.
A placer deposit is a deposit of earth, sand, or gravel formed due to the differential settling of the denser, heavier components. The placer contains particles of valuable mineral and it is found usually in the bed of a river or lake.
It will disrupt the process
Answer:
The correct answer would be the harmless bacteria had been transformed.
Griffith used two different strains of the bacteria <em>Streptococcus pneumoniae - </em>type-III-S or smooth strain and type II-R or rough strain.
Smooth strain had protective covering around itself (protect itself from hosts's immune system) and was able to kill the mice.
Rough strain did not have any protective covering around itself and thus could be easily removed by the immune system Hence, it was not able to kill the mice.
In addition, heat killed smooth strain was also not able to kill the mice. However, when remains of it was added with rough strain then the blend was able to kill the mice.
Lastly, he was able to isolate living bacteria of both the strains.
He concluded that non-lethal type II-R strain was transformed into lethal type II-S strain by "transforming principle" (which we know today as DNA) that was supposed to be the part of dead III-S strain bacteria.
