tensa zangetsu [6.8K]

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.

Cattle egrets hitch a ride on domestic cows and eat insects that are stirred up by their activity. What term describes this rela
Serhud [2]

Ans.

Biological  interactions include different types of interactions between organisms that reside together in a community.

Cattle egrets show interaction with domestic cows and feed on the insects present in them. The cattle egrets get food from the cows, while there is no benefit or harm to the cows. This type of biological relationship is known as commensalism, in which one organism, out of interacting organisms, get benefit, while other organism neither harmed or benefit.  

Thus, the term that describes this relationship is 'commensalism.'
