Beta-lactam antibiotics work by inhibiting the cross-linkage of NAM subunits in the bacterial cell wall.

<h3>What are Beta-lactam antibiotics?</h3>

Beta-lactam antibiotics are specific drugs that stop bacterial growth and thus avoid diseases.

These drugs (Beta-lactam antibiotics) are well known to block cell wall formation in bacteria.

NAM peptide subunits of peptidoglycans contain variable peptide chains attached that are different depending on the bacteria genera.

In conclusion, Beta-lactam antibiotics work by inhibiting the cross-linkage of NAM subunits in the bacterial cell wall.

I-interference

Q-coefficient of coincidence

Q=O2Xo/E2xo(2xo-double crossovers)

O2xo=6

P=(distance from C1 to Sh/100)*(distance from Sh to Wx/100)

=(3.38/100)*(18.28/100)=0.006

E2xo=0.006*6708=40.248

Q=6/40.248=0.15

I=1-0.15=0.85

Anna007 [38]

Answer:

A) They have low-maintenance and are easy to keep track of for mutations.

B) The deduction can be "Single Gene Mutation"

Explanation:

After examining the example given in the question on Neurospora crassa and the details about how they reproduce, the following points can be made regarding the questions;

A) It is stated that they form a colony in time and that they are asexual spores and the first reason to choose them would be because they contain somatic cells (which refer to the cells other than reproductive cells) and non-motile gonidia which can multiply by dividing themselves and these properties make the colony's maintenance easy. And since they multiply by division, it is easier to keep track of the occuring mutations.

B) Given the information in the question that the mating is between an albino strain and a wild type, and then between two albino strains which have the same genotype. The results indicate that the strains have gone through single gene mutation during the process.

I hope this answer helps.
