Biology

dusya [7]3 years ago
5 0

Eutrophication of water bodies like lake, pond, shallow stretches of river, etc. is the phenomenon where excess growth of vegetation on the surface of the water takes place. This excess growth results in the clouding of the water, depletion of dissolved oxygen in water, and the death of aquatic organisms. The primary reason for the cause of eutrophication is the presence of nutrients in excess amounts in the water. The nutrients B. come from fertilizer and sewage runoff.

Ampicillin is a member of the penicillin family of antibiotics. what would happen to ampr bacterial strains if they were streake
artcher [175]

The amoxicillin and the ampicillin are known to degrade the cell wall. both of these antibiotics have β- lactam in their structure. The structure of the ampicillin and the amoxicillin is similar having a single difference at the 4th position of benzene ring. The structure of the amoxicillin have an addition OH or hydroxyl group at the 4th position in the benzene ring.

As the structure of ampicillin and amoxicillin is similar, the bacteria having ampicillin resistance can also show amoxicillin resistance.

MODE OF ACTION OF AMOXICILLIN:

The amoxicillin binds with the pencillin binding proteins, present in the bacterial cell wall. The binding of the amoxicillin inhibits the enzyme transpepetidase, which is an important enzyme for the synthesis of the cell wall. it also inhibit murine hydrolases and inhibit the assembling of cell wall.

The amoxicillin effects the cell walls of the bacteria, as the animals cells do not have cell wall, they only have a cell membrane, the increase in the dose would not effect the animal cell.

Which of the following cannot be used as a metabolic control mechanism?
Luden [163]

Answer: Enzyme compartment cannot be used as metabolic control mechanism.

Explanation: Metabolic control or regulation employs many substrates,enzymes and byproduct to send a signal to cells to perfom or stop perfoming certain duties. Too much glucose for instance will regulate, activate and send signals using insulin to store glucose in form of glycogen using the process of glycogenolysis. Hormones and enzymes will also signal to activate the process of sleep, menstruation, digestion etc activating and regulating different kind of cells.

On the other hand enzyme cormpartmentation is there to maintain order and protect cells from lysis by making sure that each enzyme and cell works in its own confined space.
