Thiobacillus denitrificans is a species of bacteria that obtains its energy from carbon dioxide and inorganic compounds such as

nitrogen in its environment. It is used in bioremediation (natural cleansing) of groundwater that contains excess nitrate, allowing the nitrates to be removed. How does Thiobacillus denitrificans help bioremediate groundwater?

Answer:

The correct answer would be - nitrficiation, denitrification, nitrogen fixation, and decomposition.

Explanation:

Thiobacillus denitrification is a facultative, obligate chemolithoautotrophic anaerobic bacterium that is well known for its ability to couple the oxidation of inorganic sulfur-based compounds to denitrification.

The name of the bacterium is derived from its function or the metabolic ability as it performs denitrification on thio (sulfur) based inorganic compounds by the process of oxidation. This process helps in bioremediate groundwater by these processes of nitrogen fixation by oxidation of inorganic compounds of sulfur.

Thus, the correct answer is - nitrification, denitrification, nitrogen fixation, and decomposition.

Salamanders, ospreys, snapping turtles, and beavers all live in aquatic habitats. Salamanders lay their eggs in small freshwater
AveGali [126]

Answer:

A. Salamanders

Explanation:

Specialists species are species that can thrive in a unique and limited range of resources. They require a specific environmental condition to reproduce and survive in  environment and also have limited or few diets they need for nutrition. These limiting characteristics put them at a disadvantage of being endangered and threatened.  

Salamanders are endangered species that are fast going into extinction. They require wetland (freshwater pools) for reproduction to be possible, and feed mainly on insects. This makes them specialist species.

Ospreys, snapping turtles, and beavers are all generalist species. They can all thrive in a wide range of environmental conditions, and also have varieties of diets they can get nutrition from to survive.

What is the proper position of the erector spinae muscles situated from medially to laterally relative to the axis of the verteb
Kazeer [188]

Answer:

These group of muscles called erector spinae muscles arises from a tendon in the sacral area and pelvis, it extends up to the occipital bone.

Erector spinae muscles originates from the SPINOUS PROCESSES of T9-T12 of the thoracic vertebrae and inserts into the SPINOUS PROCESSES of T1-T2 of the cervical vertebrae

They therefore run vertically on either side of the spine (medially and laterally).
