Lilit [14]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

Quorum sensing is triggered to begin when<u> a sufficient number of bacteria are present .</u>

Explanation:

Quorum sensing -

Quorum sensing is the ability to detect and to respond to the cell population density by the process of gene regulation . Quorum sensing bacteria releases some chemical signal molecules called the autoinducers , that increases the concentration as the function of the cell density .

The detection of the minimum threshold concentration of an autoinducer leads to the alteration in the gene expression .

gogolik [260]

Answer:

The correct order is dehydration, embed in wax, cut into sections, staining

Explanation:

There are certain proceedings needed to obtain stained sections of vegetable or animal tissues for their microscope observations.

These steps are:

  • Obtention of the material: The tissue is cut to an adequate size.
  • Fixation: When tissues are extracted from the organism, they suffer autolysis and putrefaction, so they need to be fixated in order to keep their cells in the best state possible. Fixation involves preserving the original morphological and molecular characteristics of the tissue. Fixation avoids autolysis, putrefaction, distortion, and retraction of cells and the tissue that could affect its volume or morphology.  
  • Dehydration. Once fixated, the fixator must be eliminated and the tissue is dehydrated by using a gradual series of solutions with alcohol in ascendant concentrations. Dehydration must be gradual to avoid tissue deformation.
  • Inclusion. To obtain thin cuts that can be observed under the optic microscope, the tissues must be included in a consistent, firm substance, that might be either hydrophilic or hydrophobic. A hydrophobic medium is paraffin wax, that provides hardness and plasticity.  
  • Cut. The tissue included in wax must be cut in slides or sections thin enough to allow the diffusion and penetration of light. A microtome is used to perform these cuts. When using paraffine for tissue inclusion, the cuts are about  5 to 20 micrometers of thickness.
  • Stain. Once the cuts are performed, paraffin wax must be eliminated. This can be done by using an organic solvent. Then the tissue must be stained. Hematoxylin and Eosin are the most common dyes. Animal tissues in general do not have any natural color, so they need to be stained to be observed.

The image below represents which factor that can lead to evolution at the population level?
Radda [10]
I'm assuming this is the same image that was posted before, therefore the answer is "gene flow" which occurs through population groups by natural selection and other factors.
