Difference between nitrification and dentrification
Explanation:
Nitrification and denitrification are part of the nitrogen cycle
Nitrification is the process of conversion of ammonium to nitrate by nitrifying bacteria like Nitrobacter and Nitrosomonas
Denitrification is the process of reduction of nitrate to nitrogen gas by denitrifying bacteria like Pseudomonos, Lactobacillus etc.
Nitrifying bacteria are autotrophs and grows slowly and need aerobic condition. Denitrifying bacteria are hetertrophs and grows rapidly and need anaerobic conditions.
Nitrification requires a pH of about 6.5 to 8.0; denitrification takes place at 7.0 to 8.5
Nitrification provides soluble nitrates readily available in the soil to be easily absorbed by the roots.
Denitrification processes are used in wastewater or effluent treatment plants.
Answer:
Due to environmental conditions.
Explanation:
With the passage of time, environmental conditions change which causes the evolution of of four legged land animals from fish like creature. This change occurs due to change in environment. In water, there is no need for legs because fish moves with the help of fins and tail but the organisms that lives on land has legs in order to move from one place to another so we can say that change in the physical structure of organism occurs due to environment.
Answer:
The correct answer is DNA or RNA. Viral chromosomes exist in a variety of conformations and can be made up of <u>DNA or RNA</u>
Explanation:
The hereditary material of viruses is organized into chromosomes of different types. From the genetic point of view, viruses can be classified into DNA or RNA viruses, double helix or single helix, and circular or linear, that is, viral chromosomes are linear or circular molecules of DNA or RNA. Viruses can be classified according to the type of organism they parasitize in: Bacteriophages or phages, animal viruses and plant-type viruses. Viral chromosomes are also subject to the recombination process, this happens when an individual cell is infected simultaneously by two mutant strains of a virus.
The hormone calcitonin is controlled by a negative feedback mechanism because it's release leads to the decrease of calcium blood levels.
<h3>What is negative feedback mechanism?</h3>
A negative feedback mechanism is the defined as a type of regulatory mechanism in the body where by the increased output of a system leads to a decrease of another system.
Therefore, the release of the hormone calcitonin (increased level of calcitonin in the blood) will lead to decrease in blood levels of calcium.

Answer:
Lipids are hydrocarbon molecules that make up the structure of living beings. Few examples are <u>fats, oils and waxes</u>. Steroids are also a class of lipids but they are not structurally related to other lipids but do share some common properties with them. They are <em>insoluble in water and are hydrophobic</em>( water-repelling).
Explanation:
Lipids are insoluble in water as they are <em>non-polar</em> but soluble in non polar solvents (<em>chloroform</em>). Fat soluble vitamins like <u>A,D,E,K and steroids</u> have a different structure composed of fused four rings.
The most common example of steroid is cholesterol. Cholesterol acts as a precursor for many hormones and other signalling molecules.
