A molecule is when two or more atoms join together chemically. A compound is a molecule that contains at least two different elements.
The answer is geothermal energy. This energy can be harnessed to generate electricity. The energy emanates from the deep core of the earth due to the radioactivity of the rocks in the region. The radioactivity heats Magma from the mantle which subsequently heats the rocks and fluids in the earth crust.
The decreasing wolf populations in North America can result to the <span>range expansion of coyotes
</span><span></span>Wolves and coyotes usually compete for prey, especially the smaller mammals. Wolves do not actively hunt coyotes but do attack them when the latter ventures into their territory.
With decreasing wolf populations, coyotes can then venture and hunt more freely. However, the coyotes cannot take the place of the wolves in helping maintain balance in the ecosystem in which they belong to because of their preference for smaller mammals.
Wolves can help regulate an ecosystem's larger mammals such as the ungulate populations, as they do not prey on the smaller mammals as much as coyotes do. This leaves more prey available for mid-level carnivores like foxes. Moreover, wolves also leave behind carcasses of their prey, which become food for other animals such as <span>foxes, badgers, raptors, coyotes and other scavengers.</span>
<h3><u>Answer;</u></h3>
peptidoglycan
The molecular basis of the Gram stain is the amount of<u> peptidoglycan</u> in the bacterial cell wall.
<h3><u>Explanation</u>;</h3>
- Gram stain is differential stain that is very useful for identifying and classifying bacteria as either gram negative or gram positive.
- Gram negative are those that decolorize easily, such as E. coli, while Gram positive are those that retain the primary stain and do not decolorize easily.
- The result depends on the bacteria cell wall structure, the cell wall of a Gram-negative bacterium is composed of 20 percent or less of peptidoglycan.
