How do the events and processes that occur during ecological succession change species diversity over time?

Biology
1 answer:
Nookie1986 [14]3 years ago
6 0
Ecological succession , or the process in which the structure of a community evolves over time, means that the species composition, density, and distribution of that community is constantly changing as time progresses. A community may eventually reach its climax, the point where the composition remains mostly stable unless some sort of disturbance occurs. Otherwise, communities are constantly changing.

Give the two ways nitrogen can be fixated so plants can use it to grow.
Maurinko [17]

\huge\mathfrak\red {Answer:}

<h2>Fixation</h2>

Nitrogen in its gaseous form (N2) can’t be used by most living things. It has to be converted or ‘fixed’ to a more usable form through a process called fixation. There are three ways nitrogen can be fixed to be useful for living things:

<h3>Biologically: </h3>

Nitrogen gas (N2) diffuses into the soil from the atmosphere, and species of bacteria convert this nitrogen to ammonium ions (NH4+), which can be used by plants. Legumes (such as clover and lupins) are often grown by farmers because they have nodules on their roots that contain nitrogen-fixing bacteria.

<h3>Through lightning: </h3>

Lightning converts atmospheric nitrogen into ammonia and nitrate (NO3) that enter soil with rainfall.

Water would move out of the cells of the microorganisms by osmosis and the cytoplasm would become dehydrated, killing the cells.
The brine is a hypertonic solution, thereby "pulling" the water out of the bacterial cells.

DiKsa [7]

Answer:

The presence of proton pumps in the lysosome membrane that allows the organelle to maintain higher concentrations of protons.

Explanation:

Lysosomes are known as a membrane-bound cell organelle that is present in many animal cells. They are spherical type vesicles in structure. Lysosomes contain hydrolytic enzymes these enzymes help in the break down of different kinds of biomolecules.

The lysosomal membrane helps to protect the cytosol, and rest of the cells, from the degradative enzymes which are present in the lysosome. They have the ability to maintains their pH by pumping in H+ ions (protons) from the cytosol across the membrane with the help of chloride ion channels and proton pumps.

Suppose an exponentially growing culture of bacteria is treated with a potential antimicrobial compound. Over the next few hours
Marta_Voda [28]

Answer:

Bacteriostatic

Explanation:

The antibiotics are the compounds which are used to treat the bacteria and are of two types: the bacteriostatic and bactericidal.

The bacteriostatic antibiotics are the antibiotics that do not kill the cells but they stop the reproduction of the bacteria and keep them in their stationary phase.

In the given question, since the antibiotic does not kill the cell but stops the doubling that is reproduction therefore the antibiotic is bacteriostatic.

Thus, bacteriostatic is correct.
