What else can I help you with?
What part of speech is symbiosis?
Symbiosis is a noun. It refers to a relationship between living organisms of different species. The noun symbiote refers to an organism involved in a symbiotic relationship.
Is cellulose an enzyme?
No, cellulose is not an enzyme. Cellulose is a complex carbohydrate found in the cell walls of plants, while enzymes are proteins that catalyze chemical reactions in living organisms.
What is permanent close association between two or more organisms of different species?
Symbiosis is the permanent close association between two or more organisms of different species. It can involve mutual benefit (mutualism), one organism benefiting at the expense of the other (parasitism), or one organism living on or in another without harming it (commensalism).
What is the meaning of escherichia coli?
Escherichia coli (E. coli) is a type of bacteria commonly found in the intestines of humans and animals. While most strains of E. coli are harmless, some can cause illnesses such as diarrhea, urinary tract infections, and food poisoning. In scientific research, E. coli is often used as a model organism.
Is cellulose(wood) organic or inorganic?
Cellulose, which is found in wood, is considered organic because it is derived from living matter. It is composed of carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen atoms, which are the building blocks of organic compounds.
What type of symbiotic a bacteria living in the testine of a cow to help it break down cellulose?
Yes! (is there more you need for this question?) "Symbiotic anaerobic bacteria" Cellulomonas is one such example.
What animals contain microbes that can break down cellulose?
Cows, horses, sheep, goats, and termites have bacteria living inside their intestinal tract. These bacteria can break down cellulose that is in grass and other plants.
What kind of symbiotic relationship is bacteria living in a cow's stomachs help them break down the cellulose in grass?
Symbiotic.
Can bacteria make you sick?
Yes many bacteria do cause diseases and infections and poisonings. However, there are also helpful bacteria like the ones living in your intestines that help you to digest food and obtain nutrients.
Why cellulose easily digested in animals?
Because there are bacteria living in our guts which produce the enzyme (called cellulase) necessary to break cellulose into smaller parts. Otherwise it would be indigestable, and come out the way it came in.
How are organisms important?
Organisms are important because they are all living things. You are an organism, your pet is an oragnism, the bacteria in your intestines are all organisms.
Are organs important?
Organisms are important because they are all living things. You are an organism, your pet is an oragnism, the bacteria in your intestines are all organisms.
Is cellulose living material?
No, cellulose is not a living material. It is a complex carbohydrate that makes up the cell walls of plants and is produced by living organisms, but once it is formed, it is not considered to be living.
How is the nitrogen cycle affected by desertification?
In the case of nitrogen-fixating bacteria or other microorganisms living in symbiosis with plants, if plants are removed so too will the microorganisms.
Why can termites digest wood?
To digest cellulose, organisms must produce the enzyme cellulase. Humans and termites are unable to produce cellulase themselves but termites have living in their gut simple organisms (protozoa and bacteria) which can produce the enzyme. This is an example of mutualism - a relationship between two species in which both organisms benefit. The protoza and bacteria benefit by receiving a constant supply of food (wood) from the termite. The termite benefits from the energy-rich sugar released from the cellulose by the termites. For more details see: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Termite
Why does bacteria grow on rotten flesh?
Bacteria grows everywhere. There is even bacteria growing inside you, mainly in your mouth and your intestines. But your body, and most other living things, have ways of stopping the bacteria from overrunning them. Dead things do not, so bacteria can survive and reproduce as much as they want.
The living together of two dissimilar organisms?
Symbiosis
