Answer:
It is essentially a broth culture filtrate of the penicillium mould.
Explanation:
- Alexander Fleming invented penicillin an antibiotic in 1928. These have been rated as the most important scientific discovery, being among the first antibiotics to be effective against bacterial infection.
- Penicillin belongs to different families that are selective against a large variety of bacteria.
- In fact, this antibiotic was discovered by fleming and accident in which he left a platter containing staphylococci open and was contaminated by green mould. There was an area of inhibited bacterial growth around the mould from which he inferred that the mould produced a material that inhibited bacterial growth. This was found to be a penicillium mould through further study.
- I assume penicillin is the most significant discovery so far because it was the first antibiotic ever discovered against bacterial infection in the absence of any drug.
Complete question:
Two species of closely related frogs are found in the same pond high in the Andes of South America. Both species only have teeth on the top jaw. One has small teeth for holding small live prey prior to swallowing. The other species has very large sharp teeth for injuring and killing large prey prior to biting off pieces of flesh for consumption. The above is an example of:
- Directional selection
- Analogous structures
- Character displacement
- Hybridization
- Vestigial structures
Answer:
Explanation:
Competition is an ecological and evolutive process very common in nature. Competition might be intra- or interspecific. Competition between different species in a community or ecosystem might be due to the same resource use, or the same territory, shelter, etcetera. When a resource is useful for two or more species, and limited, they compete to gain it.
The principle of competitive exclusion states that different species with the same requirements sharing the niche can not coexist indefinitely based on the same limited resource. When <u>two competing species coexist, this is because of niche partitioning or niche differentiation</u>.
Differentiation of effective niche is closely related to <u>character displacement.</u>
<u>Character displacement</u> is the result of interspecific competition, in which two or more species that live in the same habitat manage to avoid competition by developing different traits. Morphological divergence, or any adaptative trait development, fixated genetically, is the product of niche segregation. Species tend to differentiate morphologically in the presence of strong competitors. Traits divergence favors coexistence in the same place.
In the exposed example, both species live in the same pond. But to avoid competition and competitive exclusion, species developed different teeth sizes to feed on different prey items.
c. saturated, thats the one that helps animals store energy and insulation
Answer:
the process by which green plants and some other organisms use sunlight to synthesize nutrients from carbon dioxide and water.
I think the answer is C. If correct please give me brainliest because I am almost to expert and I need 6 more brainliest answers because I have all the points all I need are the brainliest.
