Generation of biogas

Biogas can be generated by the breakdown of organic waste by bacteria in the absence of oxygen. This means no oxygen is required during the breakdown process. The bacteria is an anaerobe, which means it does not need oxygen to grow abd proliferate. 

The medium of decomposition must be airtight. No oxygen should enter. Entrance of oxygen changes the breakdown process from anerobic to aerobic process, this will hinder methane production (the main constituent of biogas).....................

problem of plant living in fresh water habitat

Buoyancy The density of fresh water is considerably less than that of the sea and such floatation is a greater problem for fresh water plankton. There is occasional flooding which submerges the plants.  The water lilies, water lettuce, water hyacinth are able to stay afloat because of the air spaces in the lower part of the leaves as well as in the skins and roots.

Alot of products are derived from livestock, both edible and inedible, for this discourse, we look at the edible products. The edible products include,  milk, meat eggs. Milk processing Milk is the lacteal secretion from the mammary gland of females livestock. Although in modern days, milk can also be gotten from plants eg soybean milk, coconut milk. The milk from animals from cow, goat, buffallo etc. The milk is a very good vehicle for transmission of pathogens so milk handlers should exercise the utmost level of personal hygiene, the milk processing area should be sanitized. The milk handlers must be free from gastro-intestinal infections, no coughing, sneezing, diarrhoea etc. Note that the dairy animals are kept in hygienic condition, sick or animals receiving treatment should not be milk. The udders should be washed prior to milking in order to reduce the risk of contamination of the milk. Once milk is collected from the animals through a milking machine, the t...

These compunds are found mainly in the nucleus.  They are DNA (Deoxyribonucleic acid) and RNA (Ribonucleic acid). Nucleic acids have the same basic structure  in all organisms.  Excerpts from the book a glance at cell biology by Ukponmwan Ifueko Oghogho Available @  https://www.morebooks.de/gb/search?utf8=%E2%9C%93&q=Ukponmwan+ifueko+oghogho+ amazon.com/author/ifuekoukponmwan
