Answer: Microbes in biofilms are more resistant to antimicrobials then are independent organisms.
Explanation:
Biofilms are a group of microorganisms that adheres to surface mostly due to individual free flowing bacteria which other organisms join and grows together with. They release slimy glue-like extracellular polymeric substance that provides them the ability to attach to cell surfaces, resist drugs, disinfectants and sterilization. Microbes in biofilm are at an advantage compared to individual microbes because they share nutrients and are protected from conditions that are harmful to them.
Answer:
B. Ribosome
Explanation:
Ribosomes are the organelles that serve as a site for protein synthesis. Each ribosome has two subunits. The small subunit first joins with mRNA and the initiator tRNA to start the process of protein synthesis. The large subunit joins the complex and the proteins are synthesized according to the nucleotide sequence of the mRNA read in the form of genetic triplets. Ribosomes are present in cytosol as well as on the surface of the rough endoplasmic reticulum of a eukaryotic cell. In both locations, they are involved in the process of protein synthesis.
