Answers

Answer 11

True.

Back to Question 11

Answer 10

True. Every new class inherits a default version of the equals method from the class named Object. Therefore, a new class that implements the Comparator interface already has such a method. The new class is free to override the inherited version, or to simply make use of the inherited version.

Answer 9

True.

Back to Question 9

Answer 8

False. When the fillIt method shown in Listing 1 returns, the collection object referred to by ref will contain references to four objects of type MyClass with those objects encapsulating the values 4, 3, 2, and 1 with no duplicates.

Back to Question 8

Answer 7

False. In Listing 1 , the constructor that is called to instantiate a new TreeSet object receives an incoming parameter of type Comparator . Once again, don't confuse the two interfaces simply because they have similar names.

Back to Question 7

Answer 6

False. It is possible to instantiate a new TreeSet object using a constructor that receives an incoming reference to a Comparator object, in which case it is not necessary for the objects in the collection to implementthe Comparable interface. Don't confuse the two interfaces.

Back to Question 5

Answer 4

False. Although the name of the Comparable interface is similar to the name of the Comparator interface, they are different interfaces. Don't be confused by the similarity of the names.

Answer 3

True.

Answer 2

True.

Back to Question 2

Answer 1

False. The sorting order established by a Comparator may be different or may be the same as the natural order.

explain assimilatory nitrate reduction
Esinniobiwa Reply
Assimilatory nitrate reduction is a process that occurs in some microorganisms, such as bacteria and archaea, in which nitrate (NO3-) is reduced to nitrite (NO2-), and then further reduced to ammonia (NH3).
Elkana
This process is called assimilatory nitrate reduction because the nitrogen that is produced is incorporated in the cells of microorganisms where it can be used in the synthesis of amino acids and other nitrogen products
