The average distance is 16,000 km
Converging rate is 10 cm/year
1 km = 100,000 cm
= 16,000 × 100,000/10 cm/year
= 160,000,000 years
It will then take 160 Million years to collide.
Answer:
Distinct mechanisms are used by bacteria in order to transfer the gene from one bacteria to another. These are transformation, transduction, and conjugation. Transformation refers to the process of uptaking extracellular DNA by the recipient of the other bacterial cell.
In the process of transduction, the donor DNA gets packed within the bacteriophage and infects the recipient bacteria. In the process of conjugation, the genetic substance is transferred by the donor bacteria to the recipient via the process of mating.
a. Of all these three mechanisms, transformation is the process that exhibits a broad range and can be easily performed in the lab. As in the process, there is a slight chance of rejection or failure due to direct compatibility between the bacteria.
b. While the narrowest broad range is found in the process of conjugation, as in order to transfer the genetic substance between the two bacterial species, there should be a similarity between the two species so that they can mate and exchange the genetic substance in between them.
The answer is glucose and oxygen.
The answer is Phototropism, this is because the tip of the plant moves towards the light and the auxins make the plant elongate on the side with no light.
