Why will alcoholic fermentation preserve the nutritive value of fruit juice or grains in the absence of refrigeration? O alcoholic fermentation will lower the pH to -1 thus killing all microbes who would use up the nutrients in the fruit juice of grain the ethanol/alcohol inhibits the growth of spoilage microbes which would destroy the nutritive value of the plant juice or grain O it won't- this is a trick question!! O alcoholic fermentation increases the salt concentration which in turn inhibits growth of spoilage microbes

Plants absorb several ions and water from soil. For this reason, it is necessary for the soil to have a pH value at the range of 6.0 – 8.0. Again, if the p4 is less than 3.0 or greater than 10, then the beneficial microbes of the soil die. Normally rainwater is slightly acidic, its p# value is 5.5. During thunderstorm nitrogen and oxygen of air react to form nitric oxide, which is oxidized to form nitrogen-dioxide. This nitrogen-dioxide reacts with water vapor and forms nitrous acid and nitric acid. Acid-rain occurs because of it. 2NO2+ H2O → HNO2+HNO3 Examination of soil in a region of Rajshahi revealed that its p" value was 6.43. Nitrogen-dioxide is formed in the air because of thunderstorms, and its concentration is 0.297 ppm. What will be the difference between the p" value of the soil after rain and the lowest standard pH value ?

If you are working at a sewage treatment plant, which microbial process would you use to reduce nitrates in sewage before releasing into rivers? Why? O nitirification to convert nitrates to unusable nitrites; to increase algal growth in water O denitrification; to reduce HAB's O nitroge fixiation; to increase dissolved oxygen in river water nitrification; to make water richer in fertilizers when used by farmers
Figure 22.19 Which of the following statements about the nitrogen cycle is false? Nitrogen fixing bacteria exist on the root nodules of legumes and in the soil. Denitrifying bacteria convert nitrates (NO3 ) into nitrogen gas (N2). Ammonification is the process by which ammonium ion (NH4+) is released from decomposing organic compounds. Nitrification is the process by which nitrites (NO2-) are converted to ammonium ion (NH4+).
