Genetically-engineered bacteria are sprinkled on the oil to digest it.
Explanation:
Genetically engineered or modified microorganisms (GEM or GMO) like bacteria are engaged to digest oil spills through the process called bioremediation.
The enzymatic action of these specialized bacteria to degrade or decompose and remove harmful environmental contaminants. When a leakage occurs in a oil tanker, all the gallons of oil stored in it are leaded into the ocean which poses a very huge danger for the marine environment and to all the biotic factors including humans who are dependent on the marine environment.
Removing the oil spill from the ocean waters is very tough and utilizing such novel technology will be very useful. Bacteria like Alcanivorax, Methylocella are commonly engaged to remove oil spills. These bacteria acts by breaking the hydrocarbon bonds of the oil and will digest and clean the oil spill.
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.
During anaphase, the sister chromatids are separated and pulled apart
Answer:
The inputs can be material, such as the silicon used in the computer chips in a phone, or energy, which is used, for example, to manufacture and operate a phone. Outputs can be usable products or wastes, which must be disposed or recycled. A life cycle analysis of a cell phone also includes an analysis of its individual parts.

Photosynthesis is the process through which plants use sunlight and carbon dioxide to make food to sustain themselves. Cellular Respiration is when cells use oxygen and water to create a food source for the cell. The formula for photosynthesis is the same for cellular respiration except it's backwards. Hope this helps.
