Bacteria can thrive in many environments including hostile environments like hot springs, polar ice caps and salt flats. This is due to the ________ of bacteria.A. biochemical diversity
B. small sizes
C. varied shapes
D. methods of movement

Answers

Answer 1
Answer:

Answer: The correct answer for the blank is A.biochemical diversity.

Bacteria can thrive in various environmental conditions such as hot springs, salt flat, polar ice caps because of their biochemical diversity.

For instance, the organisms belonging to the domain archaea ( such as methanogens) live in extremely harsh environmental conditions. They have ether linked lipids in their cell membrane ( unlike bacteria, which possess ester linked lipids) and do not have peptidoglycan in their cell membrane. This provides them an advantage to survive under harsh conditions.

Answer 2
Answer: i think its A because  the small size , shape and the methods of movement have nothing to do with the environments it can survive in

A child is born with curly hair like her mother's and blue eyes like her father's. Why does the child have these features?A.) The child inerited features through dna from both parents.
B.) The child developed these features due to defecvtive dna replication.
C.) The child Ddeveloped these features because of a hereditary genetic answer.
really appreciate the help thanks!

Answers

If a child is born with curly hair like their mother and blue eyes like their father, it is all due to genetics. That parents DNA carries certain genes which are passed on to the child. This includes things such as hair color, eye color, hair texture and even certain illnesses.

Why does the oxidation of organic compounds by molecular oxygen to produce CO₂ and water release free energy? A) The covalent bonds in organic molecules and molecular oxygen have more kinetic energy than the covalent bonds in water and carbon dioxide.
B) Electrons are being moved from atoms that have a lower affinity for electrons (such as
C) to atoms with a higher affinity for electrons (such as O).
C) The oxidation of organic compounds can be used to make ATP.
D) The electrons have a higher potential energy when associated with water and CO₂ than they do in organic compounds.
E) The covalent bond in O₂ is unstable and easily broken by electrons from organic molecules.

Answers

The oxidation of organic compounds by molecular oxygen to produce CO2 and water releases free energy because electrons are being moved from atoms that have a lower affinity for electrons.
