Ans.

Transduction is a process of gene transfer in bacteria that involves transfer of genes from a bacterium (host cells) to another bacterium (recipient cell) via bacteriophages.

Transduction is an important process at it causes genetic recombination in bacterial population and increases genetic diversity within them. Genetic diversity increases chances of survival of organisms as it provides ability to adapt to new conditions, such as change in environment or resource scarcity.  

Thus, if a bacterial colony cannot perform transduction, chances for survival for this bacterial colony will decrease.

Which does an autopsy not provide information about?
fgiga [73]
Murder is the only thing that an autopsy doesn't specifically give information about.  An autopsy can report if the manner of death was a homicide; however, it does not give specific information about the murder. 

Autopsies are performed to determine cause of death and manner of death(natural, murder, suicide), and will give an estimated time of death usually determined by the temperature of the body.  The human body drops about
1.5°F (0.83°C) every hour after death until room temperature.  This temperature dropping period is called algor mortis and allows pathologists to determine and aproximate time of death during the autopsy process. 

Hope this helped!

If E.coli is grown in a medium containing glucose and maltose in equal amounts, the glucose is broken down immediately followed
Assoli18 [71]

Answer:

<h2>Catabolite repression </h2>

Explanation:

1. Catabolite repression: it is the positive control of the lac operon.

2. It  results in an increase in the rate of transcription. Here, the CAP protein is activated by cAMP  which then bind to the lac operon and facilitate the binding of RNA polymerase to the promoter to transcribe the genes for lactose utilization.

3. Role of glucose in catabolite repression is that It stimulates transcription from the lac operon, causing an increase in cAMP levels in the cell. Glucose decreases the levels of cAMP in the cell, result in repressing transcription from the lac operon.
