What are the differences in reproductive strategies between male and hermaphrodite C. elegans?

Male C. elegans have specialized reproductive organs and produce sperm, while hermaphrodite C. elegans have both male and female reproductive organs and can self-fertilize. This difference in reproductive strategies allows for increased genetic diversity in populations with both males and hermaphrodites.


What are the key differences between the reproductive systems of C. elegans hermaphrodites and males?

In C. elegans, hermaphrodites have both male and female reproductive organs, while males only have male reproductive organs. Hermaphrodites can self-fertilize, while males must mate with hermaphrodites to reproduce. Additionally, hermaphrodites produce both eggs and sperm, while males only produce sperm.


Protists that eat bacteria?

Protists that eat bacteria are known as bacterivores or bacteriophages. They play a crucial role in consuming bacteria and helping to regulate bacterial populations in various ecosystems. Some examples include amoebas, ciliates, and flagellates.


Do bacteria contain cytochrome C?

Yes, some bacteria do contain cytochrome C. Cytochrome C is a heme-containing protein involved in electron transport in the mitochondria of eukaryotic cells and in some bacteria as well. It plays a key role in cellular respiration by transferring electrons between complexes in the electron transport chain.


At what temperature do bacteria multiply best?

This depends on the microbes in question. Some microbes are adapted to very hot (thermophiles) or very cold (cryophiles) conditions. But most of the microbes that makes us sick or spoil food prefer conditions right around room temperature, give or take a few degrees. This is why refrigerating food or cooking food can help minimize food spoilage and food borne illness.
