I think the correct answer would be the third option. Organisms that help break down dead organic material so it can be recycled into a usable form for other organisms are called decomposers and this would include some of the bacteria. Also, there is a number of bacteria that are capable of breaking down some of the harmful products like in recent studies there are bacteria that could dechlorinate the toxic PCB substance. Some bacteria, as well, lives in the human intestines which aids in the breaking down of the food into useful molecules. The third option is partially true since there are some bacteria like the cyanobacteria which produces oxygen but it does not contribute largely to the oxygen present in the atmosphere.
Aphotic zone of a body of water refers to the part where almost no sunlight. With this condition of water, marine life is limited to species who does not light for survival. The aphotic area also is the basin of the dead organism that submerges from the photic part. Temperatures at these areas are also low.
<span>Answer:
Parabiosis is an effective way to evaluate hormone function because it permits the exchange of only long-lived molecules (such as hormones) between the two joined individuals. Thus, the glucose levels of each mouse will stay the same, but the hormone levels will not. The db mutant's hormone level will decrease, and the wild type's hormone level will increase.
Coleman's goal was to determine if the ob and db genes function in the hormonal regulation of appetite and body fat. In this experiment, if both appetite-suppressing hormone and glucose were exchanged, it would be impossible to determine whether any weight changes in the mice were caused by the transfer of hormone or the transfer of glucose from one mouse to the other. For example, an increase in hormone level (and thus greater appetite suppression) could lead to weight loss, as could a decrease in glucose level. On the other hand, a decrease in hormone level or an increase in glucose level could lead to weight gain.</span>
