Answer:

True

Explanation:

Methanogens are prokaryotic microbes that produce methane as a by-product of metabolism in anoxic or anaerobic conditions. They are commonly found in the gastro-intestinal parts of ruminants, Marine sediments, and wetlands etc. They are responsible for the methane content released when cows burp/belch and the marsh gas of the wetlands.

Methanogens are strictly anaerobic (they thrive best in a no-oxygen condition) and play a vital ecological role by using up excess hydrogen as an energy source and other products of fermentation released during anaerobic respiration. Due to this, methanogens thrive in an environment which has all electron acceptors e.g. Oxygen, Sulphate, Nitrate etc. removed. This excludes CO2 because methanogens use CO2 as their carbon source.

Nookie1986 [14]
<span>Let's consider a scenario in which the resting membrane potential changes from −70 mV to +70 mV, but the concentrations of all ions in the intracellular and extracellular fluids are unchanged. Predict how this change in membrane potential affects the movement of Na+. The electrical gradient for Na+ would tend to move Na+ Outside the cell (extracellular) while the chemical gradient for Na+ would tend to move Na+ Inside the cell (intracellular).

The electrical gradient is defined as the + goes to the - and the - goes to the +
Na + has a positive charge, but there's more positive charge inside the cell than outside (due to potassium), therefore, Na+ goes extracellular (out)
The concentration gradient considers that the ion will go from the most concentrated to at least concentrated by passive diffusion so no trans-membrane proteins in the game attention.Na + is very concentrated in extracellular and few intracellular, therefore, it tends to go intracellular (in).</span>

Most fungi grow best at pH<br> a. 1<br> b. 5<br> c. 7 <br> d. 9<br> e. 14
scZoUnD [109]

Answer: pH 5 Acidic environment.

Explanation:

The fungi grows best in the acidic environment, this is because the fungi grows in a moist, warm and darker environment.

The fungus grows at lower pH. When the fungal species was grown in the laboratory conditions then under low pH, the fungal species grow more properly.

Hence, the best environment for the growth of fungus is pH 5.

Human blood types are characterized by the presence absence of surface markers known as a tigers on the surface of red blood cel
zalisa [80]

Answer:

characterized by presence or absence of antigens

the blood types are A, B, O, AB

Explanation:

There are two antigens and two antibodies that are mostly responsible for the ABO types.  The specific combination of these four components determines an individual's type in most cases. Erythrocytes and serum were related to the presence of antigens on these erythrocytes and antibodies in the serum. these antigens  are A and B, and depending upon which antigen the erythrocytes express, blood either belonged to blood group A or blood group B. A third blood group contained erythrocytes that reacted as if they lacked the properties of A and B, and this group was later called "O" blood group. The fourth blood group AB, was added to the ABO blood group system. These erythrocytes expressed both A and B antigens.

Blood group   Antigen present on RBC    Antibodies in serum    Genotype(s)

      A                        antigen A                             anti-B                     AA or AO

      B                        antigen B                             anti-A                     BB or BO

      AB              both A and B antigen                 none                         AB

      O                           none                           anti-A and anti-B           OO

  • A rash which begins on face and later spreads all over the body
  • Low fever
  • Swollen glands
  • Aching joints
  • Joint pain

As in the question, the doctor found rash on the body of patient, it was diagonised as Rubella, so the doctor was worried because it can affect the development of her child.
