It oxidies iron and inorganic sulfur compounds. The oxidation process can be harmful, as it produces sulfuric acid, which is a major pollutant. It has been suggested that T. ferrooxidans forms a symbiotic relationship with members of the genus Acidiphilium, a bacterial capable of iron reduction. Other species of Thiobacillus grow in water and sediment; there are both freshwater and marine strains.
The bacteria are usually found in rivers, canals, mine drainage effluents and mining areas. So there may be some source of these bacilli near their house.They require inorganic sources to grow and contain an enzyme called ferrous oxidase that allows them to metabolize iron.
<span>They eat iron pipes corroding the pipes leading into households and produce a thick slime layer biofilm.</span>
Answer:
Cb>Cy>Co>Cr
Explanation:
First of al we need to do the Punnett square. As a result we get the genotypes:
CyCb
CyCr
CoCb
CoCr
Because there are no red frogs, red is the least dominant as it isn't expressed in any genotype.
Half of the progeny are blue and half of the possible genotypes contain the blue allele meaning that blue is expressed in all genotypes. This means that blue is the most dominant.
The only alleles left are yellow and orange. We can deduce that yellow is more dominant than orange because one of the parent frogs is yellow and contains the genes for yellow and orange.
As a result blue is the most dominant, yellow is the second most dominant, orange is the third most dominant and red is the least dominant.
The answer will probably be b
Answer:
Condensation
Explanation:
Condensation is about water not rocks.
