Answer:

The type of food Bob is given.

Explanation:

An independent variable in an experiment is the variable that is changed. Here, the type of food is the only thing that is changed and the amount of water, temperature and other variables were kept constant (same). Thus, the independent variable is the type of food Bob is given.

Gram-positive bacteria are bacteria that have thick cell walls which yield positive results in the Gram staining test. Lipoteichoic acid is a major component of the cell wall of gram-positive bacteria.

  • All bacteria indicated in the question can be classified by the Gram staining test:
  1. Actinomycetes are Gram-positive bacteria
  2. The genus <em>Arthrobacter </em>includes Gram-positive bacteria
  3. <em>Escherichia coli </em>(<em>E. coli</em>) is a Gram-negative bacterium
  4. <em>Staphylococcus spp.</em> are Gram-positive bacteria
  5. <em>Bacillus spp</em> are Gram-positive bacteria
  6. <em>Mycobacterium spp.</em> are Gram-positive bacteria

  • Prokaryotes can be divided into two domains: Bacteria and Archaea.

  • Gram staining is a method used to classify bacteria, but this method IS NOT USED to stain Archaea.

  • In consequence, I would not use the Gram test to stain Archaebacteria because Archaebacteria aren't bacteria (Option A is correct).

  • Archaebacteria belong to the Archaea domain.

Pepsin, an enzyme that is found in the stomach of humans, functions in breaking down proteins. It is denatured as it travels to
AnnZ [28]

Answer:

A. pH

Explanation:

Denaturation of proteins is a protein whereby the protein molecule loses its primary structure and ultimately its physical functioning as a result of factors including pH, temperature or concentration of chemicals. Based on this definition, it is visible that denaturation of proteins can be caused by these three factors: pH, chemical and temperature.

However, in this case of PEPSIN enzyme, which is a proteinous molecule produced in the stomach of humans and functions in breaking down proteins, its denaturation occurs as it moves along the digestive tract to the intestines. This is as a result of the changes in pH in the digestive tract.

The pH of the stomach where pepsin is produced is acidic i.e. <3.0. However, as one moves towards the intestine, the pH increases, which is unfavorable or considered harsh for the pepsin enzyme. Hence, it gets denatured.

Horses and zebras can be bred to produce a zorse, which is infertile. Which is most likely the reason zebras and horses are cons
andrew11 [14]

Answer:

The correct option is B) Their offspring cannot breed.

Explanation:

Organisms belonging to the same species require the ability to breed and produce fertile offsprings. If two organisms breed to produce infertile offsprings, then they are not considered to belong in the same species. Infertile offsprings do not have the capability to reproduce. The breeding between a horse and a zebra produces zorse, which is sterile. This depicts that both the zebra and horse belong to different species as they cannot produce a fertile offspring.
