absent from desert ecosystems?
A.There is not enough biomass at lower levels of the food chain in deserts for large predators to be supported.
B.Biomass is passed through the food chain at a much higher rate of efficiency in grasslands, allowing large predators to exist.
C.There are no scavengers in deserts, but many in savannas, and this allows materials to cycle fast enough to support predators.
D.The 10% rule states that predators must make up 10% of the animals in ecosystems with a lot of biomass, like savanna ecosystems.

The effect of an antibiotic, antiseptic or disinfectant on bacteria growth is gauged by what measure? Group of answer choices
hichkok12 [17]

Answer:

The correct answer id A. An area of no growth immediately around the application of substance called the "zone of inhibition" with the greater the zone size the greater the effect on the bacteria, ie the reduction or inhibition of growth.

Explanation:

When the effect of any antibiotic, antiseptic or disinfectant is to be checked then the substance is applied on some spots on agar plate and then spread plate culture technique is performed under aseptic technique.

Then after some hours of incubation area with bacterial growth and area without bacterial growth can be seen on the agar plate. The area where no bacterial growth occurs is called the zone of inhibition.

More the zone of inhibition produced by the substance more will be its effectiveness against the bacteria that means it can inhibit the growth of more bacteria. So, the right answer is A.
