Answer:
y-intercept: (0, 13/4)
Explanation:
Please see atrached document below.
Change in velocity (
) is acceleration (
) times time (
)
Acceleration
Time
So
The initial velocity is then
The steps are:
1-The phage binds to a bacterial surface.
2-Phage injects viral DNA in host bacterial cell.
3-Host DNA hydrolyses in pieces.
4-Phage DNA is now replicated and new phage coat proteins are synthesized.
5-The bacterial DNA is surrounded by phage coat protein.
6-Host bacterial cell lyses.
7-Bacterial DNA is injected in a bacterium by the phage.
8-Bacterial DNA integrates into the new bacterial host chromosome.
Evolution continues to occur,
Bacteria becoming resistant to antibiotics is a feature of a random mutation being selected for in the population of bacteria. The ones who survive antibiotics due to having a gene for resistance are able to pass off that gene to their progeny which leads to a grand scheme of evolution
