If an egg cell were treated with EDTA, a chemical that binds calcium and magnesium ions, the fertilization envelope would not form.
An eggshell is a soft outer coat and a semipermeable membrane that is made up of calcium carbonate (CaCO3).
It is semi-permeable so air and water can not pass through it and the inside material remains intact.
A small shell or outermost coating called 'cuticle or bloom' prevents bacteria and other microorganisms to get inside the egg shell.
Moreover, egg yolk is a rich source of protein and other beneficial organic compounds.
Egg shell are used as chicken feed.

The answer is D since organism x has a n optimal temperature of 37 degrees Celsius and when organisms y enzyme gets incorporated with enzyme x it will increase enzyme’s x temperature therefore enzyme x will denature meaning it will unfold and it will loose its properties hence loosing its activity because its temperature has been altered.
A chemical element is a substance that contains only one type of atom. If a substance contains more than one type of atom, it is a compound. ... The smallest particle of such an element is an atom. Atoms are made up of protons, neutrons, and electrons.
Phytoplankoton are the primary energy producers of the ocean ecosystem. They create the energy from the light sources such as sun. They convert the obtained light energy into carbohydrates by the process of photosynthesis. The energy produced by the phytoplankton is not consumed by it. These are the important food sources for the aquatic animals in order to support the food chain. These are considered as the foundation of the aquatic food web. These phytoplanktons even cause death of the organisms. When the phytoplankton die it sinks to the bottom of the water body and the bacteria which feed on the dead phytoplankton release oxygen making the marine life suffocating. These phytoplanktons produce chemical energy from sun light. These produce carbohydrates by utilising carbon dioxide from atmosphere resulting in water and oxygen as the end product.
Therefore, Phytoplanktons act as PRODUCERS in an ocean ecosystem.
