The graph below shows  the  growth  rates  of  populations  of  bacteria  that  have  evolved  for  many  generations  at different culture temperatures (25°C, 30°C, and 35°C). Each population grows over only a limited range of temperatures (its thermal niche), which are bounded by its critical thermal limits. Within this range, growth rate increases with temperature up to a maximal value and then declines rapidly with increasing temperature. Growth rates are known to be the major determinant of fitness for these bacteria.

Which of the following is true concerning the thermal dependence of growth rate   between 25°C and 30°C in these populations?

#Unit 10. Ecological Principles
  1. Thermal dependence is greatest in the population evolved at 25°C. 
  2. Thermal dependence is greatest in the population evolved at 30°C. 
  3. Thermal dependence is greatest in the population evolved at 35°C.
  4. Growth rates of all populations are equally thermally dependent over this temperature range.

Plant cells have several internal compartments, each of which can differ in its ionic composition. The cytosol and the vacuole are the most important intracellular compartments that determine the ionic relations of plant cells, Ion concentrations in the cytosol and the vacuole are controlled by passive (dashed arrows) and active (solid arrows) transport processes
