Bacteria are capable of
reproducing quickly. Explain how
this adaptation is beneficial in
their ability to become resistant
to antibiotics

Answers

Answer:

Antibiotics, also known as antimicrobial drugs, are drugs that fight infections caused by bacteria. Alexander Fleming discovered the first antibiotic, penicillin, in 1927. After the first use of antibiotics in the 1940s, they transformed medical care and dramatically reduced illness and death from infectious diseases.

The term "antibiotic" originally referred to a natural compound produced by a fungus or another microorganism that kills bacteria which cause disease in humans or animals. Some antibiotics may be synthetic compounds (not produced by microorganisms) that can also kill or inhibit the growth of microbes. Technically, the term "antimicrobial agent" refers to both natural and synthetic compounds; however, many people use the word "antibiotic" to refer to both. Although antibiotics have many beneficial effects, their use has contributed to the problem of antibiotic resistance.

Antibiotic resistance is the ability of bacteria or other microbes to resist the effects of an antibiotic. Antibiotic resistance occurs when bacteria change in some way that reduces or eliminates the effectiveness of drugs, chemicals, or other agents designed to cure or prevent infections. The bacteria survive and continue to multiply causing more harm.

The diagram below shows two processes, P and Q, in the carbon cycle.



Which of these statements best describes the processes P and Q?

P shows diffusion and Q shows weathering.
P shows weathering and Q shows diffusion.
P represents combustion and Q represents decomposition.
P represents decomposition and Q represents combustion.

Answers

Answer:

P shows diffusion and Q shows weathering.

Explanation:

The process shown in the image attached to this question is a part of the carbon cycle. Based on the image in this question, atmospheric carbon enters the ocean in a process called P while carbon deposited in limestone is released into the atmosphere via a process called Q.

- Atmospheric carbon which is carbon dioxide (CO2) enters the surface of the ocean via a process called DIFFUSION, hence, process P shows diffusion

- Also, for the carbon in limestone to be released into the atmosphere, the limestone has to be broken down in a process called WEATHERING. Hence, process Q shows weathering.

Answers

Answer:

1. Notochord.

2. Dorsal hollow nerve cord.

3. Pharyngeal slits.

4. Pharyngeal slits.

5. Notochord.

6. Dorsal hollow nerve cord.

Explanation:

A living system can be defined as the internal systems found within living organisms and how different materials circulate within these organisms.

Generally, these living systems are self-organized life forms and are known to be very much interactive with their surroundings or environment. Also, living systems are dependent on the flow of information, matter and energy at various levels.

Some examples of living systems in organisms are respiratory system, nervous system, circulatory system, and digestive system.

A chordate can be defined as an animal found in phylum chordata of the animal kingdom such as vertebrates, cephalochordates, tunicates, etc.

The four (4) shared anatomical features or characteristics of chordates includes the following;

1. Notochord: found between the digestive tract and nerve cord.

2. Dorsal hollow nerve cord: in some embryos this develops into the central nervous system.

3. Pharyngeal slits: in invertebrate chordates can be involved in filtering food from water ingest through the mouth.

4. Pharyngeal slits: in jawed fish this provides support for the jaw.

5. Notochord: provides skeletal support.

6. Dorsal hollow nerve cord: is derived from the ectoderm.

step by step process of photosynthesis

Answers

Answer:

Step 1-Light Dependent. CO2 and H2O enter the leaf.

Step 2- Light Dependent. Light hits the pigment in the membrane of a thylakoid, splitting the H2O into O2.

Step 3- Light Dependent. The electrons move down to enzymes.

Step 4-Light Dependent. Sunlight hits the second pigment molecule allowing the enzymes to convert ADP to ATP and NADP+ gets converted to NADPH

Step 5-Light independent. The ATP and NADPH is used by the calvin cycle as a power source for converting carbon dioxide from the atmosphere into simple sugar glucose.

Changes in ____ result in a change in protein structure which alters the ____-type of the organism and MIGHT increase _____.

Answers

Answer:

DNA, genotype and resistance.

Explanation:

Change in DNA of an organism results in a change in the shape and structure of protein because DNA has the codes of instructions on the basis of which ribosomes synthesis proteins for the cell. This change occurs due to mutation in the DNA sequence that causes change in protein. Due to this mutation, the genotype of an organism changes and might increases its resistance that leads to its survival in that environment so we can say that mutation has good effects on the organisms.
