First of all, only hermaphrodites can produce offspring by themselves, and most of the time, they end up being genetically mutated, but either way it is called asexual reproduction
The antibiotic called ampicillin was not effective against E.coli.
Answer: D
Explanation:
E.coli is normal microbial flora which is present in the gut of the mammals.
It is gram negative bacteria and very few strains of this bacteria causes harm.
Antibiotics are the chemical drugs which are used to treat the microbial infection either by killing the causative organism or by its growth inhibition.
Antibiotics such as neomycin, penicillin and erythromycin are usually used to treat E.coli infection.
Antibiotic such as Ampicillin is not used as the bacterium E.coli is highly resistant to it.
If a cytosine base is substituted for by a thymine base in a DNA segment during DNA replication, the sequence could code for the wrong amino acid during translation.
The change in the sequence of DNA is known as mutation.
When a base substitution occurs in the sequence of a DNA during replication, the genetic information in the region where the substitution occurred becomes compromised.
During transcription, the process of encoding genetic information on DNA into RNA, the base substituted is also transcribed along. If cytosine is substituted by thymine, adenine is transcribed instead of guanine.
During the translation of the genetic codes, the wrong amino acids might end up being translated due to the substituted base, leading to a faulty protein.

The common passageway shared by the respiratory and digestive system is the pharynx
The correct answer is d. spinal cord.
Spinal cord is a bundle of neurons which starts from the brain and runs down the entire length of the back of the body. The spinal cord acts as a main means to transmit the messages between the brain and the body.
Sensory or efferent neurons carry the information from the perimeter of the body and pass to the central nervous system whereas the motor or efferent neurons act as a communication channel and carry the information from the nervous system to various glands and muscles.
