Can you list the types of organisms in order in which they would appear during primary succession?
nignag [31]

Answer:

Primary succession is one type of the ecological succession which takes place on the land devoid of vegetation or barren land.

The species which first flourishes on this barren land are known as pioneer species which includes the species of bryophytes and pteridophytes like lichens and mosses.

These lichens and mosses help breakdown the barren rocks through chemical leaching and help increase the nutrient content. This allows the ferns and small pteridophytes to grow.  

Then the area is colonized by the intermediate species which includes herbs, shrubs later trees. These intermediate species help attract the animals and thus help establish the biological community.

Thus, Lichens mosses → herbs→ shrubs →trees.

Alexeev081 [22]

Answer:

A. Lipid A

Explanation:

The outer membrane of Gram-negative bacteria is present outside to the thin peptidoglycan layer. The outer membrane consists of lipopolysaccharide (LPS) which is the molecule having both carbohydrates and lipids.

The lipopolysaccharide has three parts out of which lipid A is the toxin one. Lipid A is embedded in the outer membrane through its fatty acids. When lipid A enters the blood stream of the host cell, it leads to septic shock. Lipid A is heat stable and highly toxic.
