What organism must obtain nutrients and what?
All living organism requires nutrients of some sort. Animals require food, plants require water and sunlight, etc.
Why is it useful for fertilizers to be available with different compositions?
Different families of plants require different nutrients, or different proportions of the same nutrients.
Do microorganisms need nutrients?
yes, microorganisms need nutrients for their growth. That nutrients also used for their own metabolisms. but all the microorganism's doesn't take same type of nutrient. Based on the categories and metabolisms it require different/ varies nutrients.
Why do biologists consider viruses to be nonliving?
Viruses are not cells and do not have a cell membrane or other components of living cells. They cannot reproduce on their own. They cannot move on their own. They also can not use energy. They are alive in the sense that they are organic material, but not in the sense that they are independent living things.Also they cannot respond to stimulus.Most biologists today consider viruses to be nonliving because viruses do not have all the characteristics essential for life. Viruses are not cells and do not use their own energy to grow or to respond to their surroundings. Viruses also cannot make food, take in food, or produce wastes. The only way in which viruses are like organisms is that they are able to multiply.CREDITS FROM: NORTH CAROLINA 8TH GRADE PRENTICE HALL SCIENCE EXPLORER
What are the main features of bacteria and viruses?
characteristic feactures of bacteria Bacteria: they are prokaryotic cells that absorb nutrients from the environment or produce their own nutrients, through light energy or other processes. In addition, bacteria have cell walls and plasma membranes for protection, DNA/RNA for function, and use Flagellum and their slime layer to move. Viruses: they are not cellular and aren't able to reproduce outside a host cell. they are obligate intracellular parasites. In addition, viruses are made of protein capsids, surface proteins, and DNA/RNA to inject into the host cell.
What do good nutrients require?
Good nutrients require good health.
Do clouds require nutrients?
No, they are not alive.
Do viruses have a metabolism?
''Viruses do not have their own metabolism, and require a host cell to make new products.''
What do viruses require to be able to reproduce?
a host cell
All viruses require organic material for growth?
No, only a host cell to reproduce. (Viruses do not grow)
What is the similarities in temperate and virulent viruses?
They both require a host cell to reproduce and they are both types of viruses
Why are viruses are to treat?
They do not take in any nutrients or carry out any metabolic processes.
What do plants require from the soil for growth?
plants require nutrients from soil to grow
What do chemical reactions in the metabolism require?
nutrients
What does chemical reactions of metabolism require?
nutrients
Which is different between bacteria and viruses that shows that bacteria are living organisms and viruses are not?
