The intensity of the colour increases with the increase in temperature because at higher temperature the semi-permeability of the plasma membrane is gradually lost.

How biofilm is significant to human health. Introduction: Biofilm is a collection of one or more kinds of microbes that form on various surfaces. Upon reaching a solid surface, the microbial cells bind to that particular surface and secrete a muggy, gel-like matrix made of polysaccharide which traps other microbial cells.

The terrestrial animals exchange gases with the help of lungs and carry out air breathing. However, in the aquatic animals, the exchange of the gases occurs in the water. Water breathing is difficult than breathing in the air. This is because P O 2 (partial pressure of oxygen) within water is very less than P O 2 in the air. Air breathing also has some disadvantages.
