Darina [25.2K]2 years ago

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.

In your own words, explain why a virus such as the rhinovirus, which relies on close contact to spread, might evolve to favor le
Zielflug [23.3K]

Rhinoviruses are transmitted through the air or via contact. We might expect this sort of transmission to require a fairly healthy host (one who gets out and comes into contact with others) and, hence, to select against virulent strains. If we take precautions and try to stay away from people or avoid any contact with people, more hand-washing stations, increased attention to sanitization, and isolation of patients will help to reduce the transmission of the disease and, in the process, may favor the evolution of less virulent strains of the virus.
