why is tetracycline selectively toxic against bacteria Eukaryotic cells will enzymatically destroy the drug. Eukaryotic cells wi

ll actively pump the drug out of their interiors. The drug affects peptidoglycan synthesis, and eukaryotic cells have no peptidoglycan. The drug binds to the 30S small ribosomal subunit — eukaryotes have a 40S small subunit. Eukaryotes lack a small ribosomal subunit, so the drug cannot negatively affect them.

Answer:

The correct answer is The drug binds to the 30S small ribosomal  subunit eukaryotes have 40S small sub unit.

Explanation:

Tetracycline belongs to broad spectrum antibiotic.Tetracycline is named so because it contain a derivative of four hydrocarbon rings.

 Tetracycline act by inhibiting the protein synthesis process in prokatotes by binding to the small ribosomal subunit also called 30S subsunit and blocks the binding of amino acyl tRNA to the A site or attachment site of ribosome.

 As eukaryotes contain 40S ribosomal  subunit,it becomes difficult for tetracycline to bind with 40S ribosomal subunit of eukaryotes.

Which part of the cell theory do these results most support:
Vlad1618 [11]
<h2>Hey There!</h2><h2>_____________________________________</h2><h2>Answer:</h2><h2>_____________________________________</h2>

\huge\textbf{Cell Theory}

the Cell Theory was give by German scientists, Schleiden and T.Shwan in 1839. It stated that,

  • All organism are composed of one or more cells

  • The cell is the structural and functional unit of life
  • It is a de novo structure, that means it COULD arise from non living thing which was incorrect.

It was corrected by the German pathologist  Rudolf Virchow in 1855. He made a convincing case, corrected and added the third point of the cell theory. It is,

  • Cells can arise only by a division of pre-existing cell. It is <u>NOT</u> a de novo structure.

Cell theory brought a great evolution in the field of biology which established the function of organism is the result of activities and interaction of the cell units.

\huge\textbf{Question:}

  • <u>Flask 1</u>: It is observed that there are no micro-organism, this is because the meat is sealed and no micro-organism could enter through it.
  • <u>Flask 2</u>: It is observed that there are micro-organism present because meat is not sealed but open.
  • <u>Flask 3</u>: As the S tube is used, the micro-organism are not able to reach the meat because of the curvy path

These observations support the  point that<u> cells could arise only by a division of pre-existing alive cells</u> because in Flask 1 when there were no micro-organism present so there was no organisms found so no micro-organism arised, In flask 3 the S tube was used so no micro-organism could reach the meat thus there were no organism there which could divide to reproduce. The flask 2 was open, so the micro organisms reached the meat so they divided which means Cells can only arise by a division of pre-existing cells.

Option: (A), (C) and (D)

<u>Explanation:</u>

  • The Great Acceleration refers to the humanity’s impact upon the Earth’s geology and its ecosystems caused by continual and surge in growth of human activity.
  • It was first recorded in mid-20th century and is continuing to this day. The 'invention of agriculture', advancement in medical technology which reduced the death rate, rapid increase in use of 'fossil fuels', 'fertilizers' and other resources contributed to global changes.
  • Agriculture allowed us to produce more food and population increased rapidly.
  • Fossil fuels created a surge in production of Green House Gases and global temperature began to rise.
