The most common probiotic bacteria come from two groups, Lactobacillus or Bifidobacterium, although it is important to remember that many other types of bacteria are also classified as probiotics. Each group of bacteria has different species and each species has different strains. This is important to remember because different strains have different benefits for different parts of your body. For example, Lactobacillus casei Shirota has been shown to support the immune system and to help food move through the gut, but Lactobacillus bulgaricus may help relieve symptoms of lactose intolerance, a condition in which people cannot digest the lactose found in most milk and dairy products. In general, not all probiotics are the same, and they don’t all work the same way.
Biodiversity is the different species and animanls that make up the creatures of the world the discovered and the undiscovered. Biodiversity is important because it has to do with the exchange of good and service to make a profit. Finding and discovering animals for food, clothing, medicines, as well as jewelry sometimes depend on what animal that you are using at the time. Trophic categories and Biodiversity are common in one major way and that’s both of them deal with animals and in a small way humans. Trophic categories use each other to survive not selling or trading anything to receive profit just trying to

As the insects died on or around the plant, they enriched the soil with organic matter. Within a few years, the lupine patches became biological hotspots facilitating the growth of other plant species and attracting numerous insects, birds, and small mammals. The flourishing of life on the Pumice Plain of Mount St. Helens today may have begun with that lone lupine. Crisafulli said that it was the lupine wildflowers that taught him one of the key lessons of succession: the importance of
Diprotodon - (Diprotodon Optatum) Kingdom: Animalia Phylum: Chordata Class: Mammalia Order: Diprotodontia Family: Diprotodontidae Genus: Diprotodon The Diprotodon, meaning two front teeth, was the largest ever marsupial. The finding of fossils in Lake Callabonna in South Australia indicates that they became extinct around 40,000 to 25,000 years ago. It was 3m long from head to tail and stood 2m tall from feet to shoulder and weighed something in the region of 2500kg. Inhabiting dense forests, opens woodland and general scrub he Diprotodon could adapt to many environments. They were well adapted to eating plants as they had sharp front incisors and claws, which developed and grew endlessly throughout life, were well suited to chewing off pieces of vegetation and digging up roots.
The Bornean orang-utan species has about 40,000 animals left in the wild, a much healthier number then the Sumatran orang-utan but still not ideal. While there are millions of acres of degraded land that could be used for plantations, many oil palm companies choose to use rainforest land to gain additional funds by logging the timber first. They also use uncontrolled burning to clear land, resulting in hundreds of orang-utans being burned to death and those who survive are left with nothing to eat. Approximately the area equivalent to 300 football fields per hour is being destroyed of the rainforests where the orang-utans reside, through the conversion to
Billy Brown Prof. Bacho English 101 Nov.24, 2013 The Dung Beetle There over at 20,000 different kinds of Dung Beetles. They are black in color or gold colored It is about at least 2 inches long. It is a flying insect. The beetle is part of the scarab family. The Dung beetle is also worshipped like the scarab by the Egyptians.
Acorns serve as the single most important source of food in an oak tree microhabitat, and many insects feed on and take shelter in these plentiful nuts. One oak tree can create up to 15,000 acorns in a year, though only about 1 in ten thousand of these acorns will successfully grow another tree. Though this greatly decreases the pressure of competition for the oak tree, it leaves the forest floor littered with acorns. And so, insects take this abundant nut as an opportunity for food and shelter.
Some pathogenic bacteria can cause a host of very serious diseases, such as pneumonia, meningitis. But fortunately not all bacteria are harmful. A number of bacteria found in the human body have positive benefits for their host. They can strengthen the immune system, help digest food, can also help regulate human metabolism. Some bacteria can fight off harmful bacteria helping to prevent illness.
The idea that organic is better for the consumer and the environment is more of a mindset and not the truth. My purpose is to show the people who believe in organic products, that there are just as many down falls as conventional foods. Many people assume that organic foods are healthier, when in fact organic foods are more susceptible to carrying pathogenic bacteria, such as E. coli and salmonella. They also think that because organic farmers use natural pesticides rather than synthetic pesticides, it’s better for the environment. However, organic farmers are able to use a copper solution, which never leaves the soil, to fight fungal disease as where the conventional farmer use pesticides that are biodegradable.
