Eubacteria
This is a picture of raw beef that I found at my local supermarket. Before this meat is cooked, there are all types of bacteria lingering in it. One kind found in raw meat particularly is E.coli. E. coli is one of the few types of eubacteria that is unsafe for the body. It can cause infections that can ultimately lead to death. E. coli, because they are eubacteria, are aerobic prokaryotic unicellular organisms that inhabit many parts of the body, generally being safe, but in the case of raw meat, are harmful.
C4 Plant
This is a corn plant. C4 plants are plants in which CO2 is fixed into a compound containing four carbon atoms before entering photosynthesis. C4 plants are well-adapted to normally unfavorable environments, like those with high temperatures, intense sunlight, lack of rain, and lack of CO2 ability. Corn has all of these qualities, which allows it to be one of the most widely used grains and plants for food processing today.
Coelomate
These are parakeets that can be found at PetSmart. These birds are coelomates because of the fact that they have a body cavity, which is also known as the central gut. Because the parakeets are vertebraes, their internal body cavity is suspended by connective tissue in the middle of their bodies. This is the definition of a coelomate, thus making the parakeets that.
Auxin Producing Area of Plant
This is a picture of a flower in the gardening section at Lowe's. The auxin producing area of the plant is found right another the beautiful petals of the flower. Auxin is a hormone that is made by plants in areas where a new root or shoot is growing. When the plant wants to grow more flowers, auxin will be produced by shoots that sprout out and a new flower will arrive.
