What consists of mutualistic relationship of a fungus and either algae or autotrophic bacteria?
When a fungus and algae (or autotrophic bacteria) work together, they form a lichen. Lichens are known for their ability to survive harsh environments. In a lichen, strands of fungal mycelium surround, and support the host algae (or bacterium), and secrete a substance that forces the flow of nutrients into the fungus from the autotrophe. This results in a mutual symbiotic relationship, because the fungus doesn't have to get its own food, and the algae (or bacterium) is protected from predators, the elements, and it is provided a place where it normally wouldn't be able to grow (trees, rocks, roofs, hydrothermal springs, and siding).
Why normal DNA polmerase not use in PCR?
In the PCR, high temperatures are used in order to separate both strands of DNA readily. Normal DNA polymerases would "melt" (denature) under these conditions, whereas Taq DNA Polymerase does not (short from Thermus aquaticus, a bacteria that lives in very hot submarine springs).
A source of heat-stable DNA polymerase is?
A DNA polymerase is one of the crucial enzymes when DNA is synthesised. It is also the only enzyme needed when making DNA in the test tube, using a molecular biology technique known as PCR.In this reaction, the other enzymes that nature uses are are replaced by cycles of heating and cooling, up to 95 degrees Celsius. The DNA polymerase consists of protein, so normal DNA polymerase is of course destroyed in the heating step. The first PCR's were performed by opening the tube in each step and adding a tiny amount of fresh enzyme. Using heat-stable DNA polymerases made the technique a lot more practical. The enzymes used were taken från a type of archae (not exactly a bacterium, but almost) that live in hot springs and whose proteins all are very stable even in extreme temperatures. The archaeon is called "Thermus aquaticus", hence the name of the common lab DNA polymerases "Taq polymerase":To sum it up. A heat-stable DNA polymerase is a kind of DNA polymerase found in archaea living in hot springs, and of much use in the molecular biology lab.
What system of a vehicle is made up of rods springs and bars?
Suspention
What are some forms of bacteria?
Ecoile and Natural Bacteria (Which form some natural springs)
Why are some bacteria metabolically active in hot springs?
Their enzymes have high optimal temperatures.
Which type of Archaean can live in extreme temperatures like hot springs and geysers?
thermophiles
Some bacteria are metabolically active in hot springs because?
their enzymes have high optimal temperatures.
What is the best time to visit Alice Spring?
It is inadvisable to travel to Alice Springs in the middle of summer if you are unusued to dry heat. Temperatures easily exceed 40 degrees Celsius in summer. Night time temperatures in winter are bitingly cold, but the days are very pleasant. Best times to travel to Alice Springs are March-May and August-October.
Who is the person that represents Colorado Springs in the us house of representatives?
Frank McNulty (R) from Highlands Ranch since 2011.
What temperature does bacteria start to die at when frozen?
It actually depends on the kind of bacteria. Based on their temperature requirements (temperatures at which they grow) bacteria are classified as psychrophiles (very low temperatures... even below zero).. mesophiles (above zero to say 20-30 on an average...).. thermophiles (above 50).. extreme thermophiles (very extreme temperatures such as hot springs.. may be in hundreds...).
What are the different types of water springs?
There are 4 main types of springs: - Seepage springs - Fracture springs - Tubular springs - Mineral springs
Has 212 degrees Fahrenheit - 100 degrees Celsius - ever been measured as a temperature on Earth before?
Not as a result of weather, but temperatures at or above that have been measured in studying hot springs and volcanoes.
Role of Taq polymerase in PCR?
taq polymerase is special because it is very stable at high temperatures and will not denature even at the 90 degree step of pcr. taq polymerase is so heat stable because it was extracted from the bacterium thermus aquaticus, which is found in hot springs and geezers
What are the different types of spring?
There are 4 main types of springs: - Seepage springs - Fracture springs - Tubular springs - Mineral springs
Types of springs?
There are a variety of types of water springs. These include gravity springs, artesian springs, seepage spring, tubular spring, as well as fissure springs.
What is the hottest place in the southern hemisphere?
The surrounding area of Brasilia has high temperatures all year and it rains only in the summer.
