Is the digestive system of a Gorilla the same as the human?
Morphologically they are similar, but the bacteria that inhabit them are different. Also gorillas have a larger caecum and appendix, something that allows efficient degradation of cellulose (this is because certain wood degrading bacteria live here)
What is a waxy lipid like substance that circulates in the blood?
cholesterol :)
What are steroid hormones most similar to?
Cholesterol
What is responsible for most soil degradation in the prairies of the United states?
Heavy rains are responsible for most soil degradation in the prairies of the United states. There are not enough plants to keep the soil in place.
Name and define four roles or niches in the natural world other than pathogenesis that can be filled by bacteria?
Bacteria act as decomposers that consume dead materials in the environment. They are an important factor in bioremedation, or the degradation of organic compounds. They are also key figures in the nitrogen cycle as they convert atmospheric nitrogen into nitrates and nitrites. Some species also have symbiotic relationships with other organisms.
The only bacteria that has cholesterol in its plasma membrane?
Mycoplasma Pneumoniae
Why bacteria not have a cholesterol?
It is often said that bacteria have a cell wall and do not need cholesterol. In cells like ours, the cholesterol stabilizes the membrane. However, this is not true in all cases. Mycobacterium have no cell wall and have cholesterol *but so do Micrococcus lysodeikticus, Bacillus megaterium, and Proteus mirabilisdo. They have cell walls.* The answer you need will depend on the level you are in school. If in college Micro, the entire answer is what you should use. Otherwise, use the section before the *.
What is plastic degradation?
Plastic degradation is the degradation of plastic.
How does probiotic yogurt lower cholesterol?
Several scientific studies have been carried out to test whether yogurt consumption reduces cholesterol levels or not, but so far the results are not consistent.There are at least two ways in which bacteria could affect serum cholesterol. As the bacteria in the lower intestines ferment, they produce compounds called short chain fatty acids or SCFA's. One SCFA - propionic acid in particular has been shown to decrease cholesterol synthesis in the liver. This would reduce the amount of cholesterol circulating in the blood. Some bacteria also have the ability to break down bile acids. Bile acids are secreted into the intestines but is re- absorbed and so most of the cholesterol is re-cycled back into the body. If the bile acids are broken down, the cholesterol is not reabsorbed but is flushed out in the feces.
What does biodegrodable mean?
What you are also talking about is Biodegredation. Biodegredation or biotic degradation or biotic decomposition is the chemical dissolution of materials by bacteria or other biological means.
What has the author Carol Arnosti written?

When was Degradation Trip created?
Degradation Trip was created in 2001.
What is the link between resources and envronmental degradation?
Resources is directly proportional to Environmental Degradation. When consumption from resources is high Environmental Degradation is high. When Consumption from Resources is low Environmental Degradation is low.
