Answer:
Bacteriophages that induce bacterial cell lysis are called virulent phages.
Explanation:
Bacteriophages correspond to viruses with an affinity for prokaryotic cells to be used as hosts for replication. They act both by invading the bacterial cell and by introducing their genetic material into it.
Some bacteriophages are capable of lysing or destroying the host bacterial cell after replication of their genetic material, receiving the name of virulent phages.
A molecule containing a very large number of atoms, such as a protein, nucleic acid, or synthetic polymer.
Answer:
The correct answer is option - C. They replaced carbon dioxide with oxygen in the atmosphere.
Explanation:
Cyanobacteria or Blue-green algae is a group of bacteria that is making its own food using water and carbon dioxide in the presence of sunlight, the process of photosynthesis
These organisms release oxygen as a byproduct of photosynthesis in the atmosphere. Through this process, these organisms replaced carbon dioxide with oxygen in the atmosphere in the early earth.
Thus, the correct answer is option C. They replaced carbon dioxide with oxygen in the atmosphere.
Answer:
They act to regulate the expression of specific genes (androgen-responsive)
Explanation:
Testosterone is a reproductive hormone in male humans. Testosterone as well as its closely related hormones e.g dihydrotestosterone, all belong to a class of hormones called "Androgens".
Androgens operate by entering into a cell and binds with specific androgen-receptor proteins (AR proteins). This contact activates the AR proteins, forming an androgen-receptor complex.
This complex then translocates into the nucleus of specific cells to bind to the DNA. Once it binds, it either inhibits or promotes the expression of specific genes (androgen-responsive). Hence, AR proteins are transcription factors because they play a significant role in regulating transcription of specific genes i.e. turning 'on' or 'off' of specific genes.
This process helps to direct the development of male sexual characteristics.
A community is diverse species living together
An Ecosystem is all the living and nonliving factors that affect an organism
