Hypertonic environment

<h3>How do salts and sugars preserve food?</h3>

Salts and sugars work to preserve foods by creating a hypertonic environment. Salt and sugar will remove the water from the bacteria or fungi and they will not be able to proliferate. Loss of water results in plasmolysis, or cytoplasmic shrinkage.

<h3>What is hypertonic solution and plasmolysis?</h3>

Compared to another solution, a hypertonic solution has a higher solute concentration.

Plant cells subjected to hyperosmotic stress frequently exhibit plasmolysis as a reaction. The live protoplast violently separates from the cell wall as a result of the loss of turgor. The vacuole is primarily responsible for the plasmolytic process.

To map genes of a bacterial strain, conjugation must be interrupted at given times. Suppose you have Hfr cells of genotype a+b+c
OLEGan [10]

Answer:

The answer is not in any of the options and is the following:

to eliminate any remaining Hfr cells.

Explanation:

In a medium that has a streptomycin antibiotic it is used to kill Hfr donor cells after the conjugation is interrupted. This is entirely due to the streptomycin sensitivity allele (str-s) which are found in Hfr strains. The presence of the streptomycin resistance allele, located in the receptor, is used for the specific destruction of Hfr donor cells after conjugation occurs.

AfilCa [17]

Cephalopoda

Cephalopods are commonly known as inkfishes.

But cephalopods are not at all fishes. They are molluscs.

They belong to Class Cephalopoda of phylum Mollusca.

Like other molluscs, these are also soft bodied, but have a series of tentacles that actually developed from theprimitive foot.

Cephalopods have a well developed nervous system and have large bulging eyes.

Examples of cephalopods are, octopus, giant squid etc.

Considering all the above characteristics, we can conclude that the predator stated in the question is most likely to belong to the clade cephalopoda.

How do we classify finger prints?
Aloiza [94]
Classifying Fingerprints. Once the fingerprints are taken and labeled, forensic scientists use a classification system to identify them. The three basic fingerprint patterns are Whorl, Arch, and Loop. There are more complex classification systems that further break down the pattern to plain arches or tented arches. Hope this helps
