Scientist assume that an organism's ancestors requiered a climate similar to the climate required by the present-day organism true or false?

This is actually a little bit of both. Organisms that stayed somewhat the same needed to stay in similar climate situations. However, some organisms mutated or evolved to changing conditions, and were able to withstand various climates.


What is the difference between complete and minimal medium?

Complete medium contains all the nutrients required for the growth of a particular organism, while minimal medium contains only the essential nutrients necessary for growth, often lacking specific components that the organism may be able to synthesize on its own. Complete medium is used for general growth of organisms, while minimal medium is used for specific studies or to select for strains able to synthesize missing components.


Suppose you have two organisms in a mixture and organism A is 1000 times more abundant than organism B Will you be able to isolate organism B using the spread plate technique?

It may be challenging to isolate organism B using the spread plate technique if organism A is 1000 times more abundant, as it could outcompete organism B when plated on agar. To isolate organism B effectively, you may need to dilute the sample to reduce the predominance of organism A before plating it on the agar.


How would you be able to distinguish parts of organism using microscope?

By adjusting the focus and magnification of the microscope, you can distinguish different parts of an organism based on their size, shape, and structural features. Staining techniques can also be used to highlight specific parts of the organism, making them easier to differentiate under the microscope. Additionally, using different types of microscopy such as light microscopy, electron microscopy, or fluorescence microscopy can provide different levels of detail to distinguish specific parts of an organism.


The total niche an organism is potentially able to occupy within an ecosystem is its?

The total niche an organism is potentially able to occupy within an ecosystem is its fundamental niche. This includes the full range of conditions and resources where the organism can survive and reproduce. In reality, competition and other factors may limit the actual niche that an organism occupies, known as its realized niche.
