A translocation in which part of one chromosome is exchanged with a part of a separate non-homologous chromosome. ~ s are the result of moving a section of the genetic material (chromosome) of the cell and attaching it to another chromosome.
Plants actually create these compounds to ensure a healthy, diverse population of bacteria lives near their roots to protect the plants. Decomposers are especially important in retaining nutrients in their cells thus preventing loss of those nutrients from the root zone. This is very important in the nitrogen cycle.
Smaller cells have a large surface area compared to cell volume, while larger cells have a reduced ratio of surface area to volume. One reason why bacterial cells are so small is that they need a large surface area to cell volume to take in nutrients. Bacteria accumulate nutrients from the environment by diffusion.maller cells have a large surface area compared to cell volume, while larger cells have a reduced ratio of surface area to volume.
