Answer:
B. Microbes may produce unique proteins useful in genetic research
Explanation:
Biodiversity refers to the diversity of living beings present on Earth. The biodiversity is a very important component of the ecosystem as these living organisms are interlinked with each other. Therefore, the loss of biodiversity will affect the ecosystem.
When we look at the biodiversity a layman considers the living organisms which can be seen with eyes but the diversity also exists at the level of the micro-organisms.
The man-made activities are not only harming the macroscopic but also microscopic organisms. The microbes play an important role in our life like these days they are used by the scientific community to study the genetic and related fields like molecular biology. The microbes produce proteins that are consumed by humans.
Thus, Option-B is correct.
That is the cell membrane. Think of it as a gate around a city, that is how I remember it. The city is the cell, and the cell membrane is the gate that "protects" the city, and controls what can enter and exit.

<span>Bromeliads are an example of mutualism where they create mini-ecosystems that house other small animals by collecting rainwater in their leaves. The bromeliad benefits from the nutrients when these organisms decompose when they die. Unlike the Pitcher plants which are predators, they actively trap insects and other small animals in their pitchers.

Answer: Option (d) is the correct answer.
Explanation:
Nucleus of an atom consists of protons and neutrons. Protons are positively charged and neutrons have no charge. So, due to the like charges of protons there occurs electrostatic force of repulsion inside the nucleus of the atom.
But due to similar number of neutrons and protons a force that is able to bind both of them together is known as strong nuclear binding energy.
This force is strong enough that it is able to overcome electrostatic force of repulsion. But when there is great difference in the number of protons and neutrons then binding force is not strong enough.
Hence, the atom becomes unstable and undergoes radioactive decay. So, this means weak forces are responsible for radioactive decay.
Thus, we can conclude that the statement which best describes Yanni’s error is that the strong force is responsible for radioactive decay.
