Answer:
YELLOW
Explanation:
Phenol red is a biological indicator used to monitor changes in pH. The phenol red indicator changes color ranging from yellow to pink with respect to changes in pH. In an acidic pH i.e. <7, the phenol red changes to a YELLOW color while in an alkaline pH i.e. >7, the phenol red changes to a PINK pH.
The presence of carbon dioxide (CO2) increases the hydrogen ion concentration (H+) of a solution (lowering its pH or making it acidic).
Therefore, in a reaction where CO2 is created as a product, it means the CO2 content of that solution increases. Hence, the phenol red solution will be shifting towards the YELLOW color in response to a decreasee in pH (acidic).
<u>Answer</u>: Bacteria through the nucleoid (number 5).
<u>Explanation</u>:
Both paramecium and bacteria are single celled organisms. However, they differ by the fact that the first one is an eukaryote and the second one a prokaryote.
Furthermore, they differ in their capacity to mutate and adapt to environmental changes. Bacteria have a simple internal structure that lacks any organelles and are very adept at adapting to environmental changes. Besides their capacity for high mutation rates, they are also capable of picking up genetic information from their environment through a process called <em>transformation</em>.
Through transofrmation, environmental DNA enter the living bacteria through its cell membrane. Double stranded DNA will have one strand dissolved through hydrolysis, whereas the second strand may recombine with the bacterial <em>chromosome (nucleoid)</em>. Thus, this new genetic material will become incorporated into the bacterium's genome.
Answer:
Option D, 4,2,1, 3
Explanation:
The mitochondrial respiratory chain (MRC) comprises of four membrane bound complexes and it involves the following steps
a) RC complexes (RCC) I and II reduces the RC’s equivalent where RCCI i.e receives electron from the NADH.
b) These electrons are then transferred to the flavin mononucleotide factor and then passed on to the Fe-S embedded cluster .
c) These electron reduces the coenzyme Q to ubiquinol
d) With in the inner mitochondrial membrane (IMM), protons are trans located from IMM to the intermembrane space (IMS)
e) RC complex II then transfer electron from succinate to the cofactor FAD
f) From FAD proton are transferred to the FeS cluster and on the other hand electron move from QH2 to the RC complex III
g) This RC complex III give its electrons to the cytochrome and they are further passes on to the RC complex IV
h) With four redox centers, the terminal RC complex translocate protein by using energy produced in electron transfer thereby converting oxygen into water.
Hence, the correct option is D
Only about ten per cent of the biomass is transferred from each trophic level to the next. The remaining 90 per cent is used by the trophic level to complete life processes . Biomass can be lost between stages because not all of the matter eaten by an organism is digested.
