Herbivores are organisms that feed on plants. Plants have different mechanisms of defending against herbivores, mostly by synthesizing compounds that give the plants a bitter or unpleasant taste. The synthesis of these molecules is intensified when the plant and its cells suffer physical damage, so, in the case of peeled potatoes, there should be an increase in activity of this protective enzyme.

Which correctly describes crossing over?
ollegr [7]

The correct option is A ie the process whereby non-sister chromatids exchange genetic material

  • Between prophase I and metaphase I, a process known as crossing over occurs in which two homologous non-sister chromatids join up and exchange various pieces of genetic material to create two recombinant chromosome sister chromatids.
  • When genetic material is switched between two chromosomes, this process is known as crossing over.
  • It is in charge of causing genetic variation among members of a species.
  • Only the reproductive cells known as gametes undergo this process.
  • The steps involved in crossing over are as follows:

1) Synapsis.

2) Chromosome duplication

3) Crossing over.

4) Terminalizataion.

What can people do to stop the creation of more antibiotic resistant bacteria?
Allushta [10]

Answer:

Antibiotic resistance occurs when bacteria do some variation in their genome that allows bacteria to eliminate the effect of antibacterial drugs. Irregular or excessive antibiotics use is the main cause of generating antibiotic resistance bacteria.  

So antibiotics should be taken only on the prescription of doctors and a complete course of antibiotics should be done to eliminate all the bacteria so that no bacteria is left to generate antibiotic-resistant bacteria.

Antibiotics should be avoided in viral infection as antibiotic does not kill viruses as it is only beneficial in bacterial infection.
