The answer is they produce endospores.

Explanation:

The endospores are dormant, non-reproductive, tough bacterial spores that ensure the survival of bacteria in adverse conditions.

During the environmental stress, such as starvation, desiccation, radiation and chemical treatment many bacteria form dormant endospores. These endospores germinate again when the conditions become favorable.

Hence, if drought conditions lead the stream to dry up, the bacteria that live there would produce endospores to survive.

Which fields would most likely make use of spectroscopy techniques? Check all that apply.
kow [346]

The right answer is 2 and 3.

The applications of spectroscopy are very diverse; they are in many areas: fundamental physics, astrophysics, nuclear physics, plasma physics, solid state physics, materials science, metrology, microelectronics, new light sources, laser isotope separation, and so on. The R.M.N. provided a very powerful medical imaging technique. Other analysis techniques are similar to spectrometry, in the sense that a spectrum is measured as a function of energy or frequency. Acoustic spectroscopy concerns pressure vibrations for which the notions of frequency and wavelength are similar, although the phenomenon is of a nature quite different from electromagnetic waves. Here again, the frequency range extends far beyond the audible frequency range, from infrasound to ultrasound. Mass spectrometry produces spectra as a function of the mass-to-electric charge ratio of atomic or molecular ions.

You are operating a powerboat at night. Your red sidelight must be visible to boats approaching from which direction(s)?
Degger [83]
I believe the answer is head-on and port (left). The side lights are usually visible to vessels approaching from the front or the side. The red light usually indicates a vessel's port (left) side while the green light indicates a vessel's starboard (right) side. These lights ensure that there is safety at night as the vessels navigate.

The most common form of genetic disorder that causes the fetus to spontaneously abort involves _____.​
Tomtit [17]
<span>An incorrect number of chromosomes is the most common form of genetic disorder that causes the fetus to spontaneously abort. </span>The human cells normally contain 23 pairs of chromosomes, for a total of 46 chromosomes in each cell. Error in one or more of the meiosis, mitosis, maternal age, or environment are the possible cause of the chromosome abnormalities. These abnormalities in the number chromosomes can cause problems with development, growth and function of the body's systems. These changes can occur in early fetal development, or in any cell after birth during the formation of reproductive cells (sperm and eggs).
