Reptile [31]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

The termites and the fungi possess a symbiotic relationship because they rely on each other for survival. The fungi digest cellulose (that the termites can't digest) from the wood, and in turn, the termites provide the fungi an environment where they can grow and prosper. This explains why termites prefer a wood that was inhabited by fungi. This symbiotic relationship explains why termites prefer the wood that is inhabited by fungi.

Explanation:

(see above)

Viruses change at a very fast rate Can you use this information to explain why vaccines against a specific virus don't last fore
Lorico [155]

. While Carl Linnaeus catalogued nearly all known organisms of his day, which major group of organisms did he not account for in
Blababa [14]

Answer:

Single-cell organisms

Explanation:

In 1735, Linnaeus introduced a classification system with only two kingdoms: animals and plants. Linnaeus published this system for naming, ranking, and classifying organisms in the book "Systema Naturae". In the epoch that Linnaeus created this system, single-cell organisms such as bacteria and protists were almost unknown. In 1866, E. Haeckel added a category including both bacteria and protozoa, thereby adding a category formed by single-cell organisms (different from animals and plants). During the 1900-1920 period, bacteria were classified as a separated kingdom named 'prokaryotes'. The current three-domain classification system was introduced by C. Woese in 1990. In this system, all forms of life are divided into three different domains: archaea, bacteria, and eukaryote domains (this last composed of protists, fungi, plants and animals).

how does the earth evlove around the sun while the moon evlolves around the earth with out those two planets colliding
ICE Princess25 [194]

Answer:

This is a rather complicated thing to explain so I'll try my best. To put it in simple term the sun has whats called a SOI (sphere of infleunce) and anything inside of this is effected by the gravity of that planet or sun in this case. The earth is inside of this sphere of influence. The earth has a constant velocity that is making it move away from the sun but since it's in the suns SOI the path in which the earth moves is changed in a way that causes it to spin around the sun. The same thing is happening with the moon. I'm not 100% sure on this but I think the reason the moon does not just fly away towards the sun is because it is closer to earth and is more effected by earths SOI. Hope this cleared things up for you.

How is it possible for two proteins in the same cell to perform different functions
DedPeter [7]

Enzymes are regulated by more than the binding of small molecules. A second method that is used all the time by eucaryotic cells to regulate a protein's function is the covalent addition of a phosphate group to one of its amino acid side chains. These phosphorylation events can affect the protein in two important ways.
