ElenaW [278]3 years ago
5 0
The significance of the spore formation during the reproductive cycle of the bacterium is that, it provide a defensive strategy against hostile and unfavorable conditions. The spore formation allows the bacterium to reproduce and spread even when the conditions are not favorable. The spore formation also make it possible for the bacterium to remain dormant over a long period of time during unfavorable conditions, waiting for the right conditions to become active again.

Bradley decided to put a glass of water into the freezer, as he thought it would cool the water more quickly than the refrigerat
adelina 88 [10]

I believe it is because the glass has a smaller coefficient of linear expansion than the water. The glass undergoes thermal expansion and thus when it heats up, it expands and when it cools down it contracts. The inside and the outside of the glass does not reach an equilibrium temperature very quickly since the glass has a low thermal conductivity. The surface of the glass rapidly contracts while the inner surface is expanding which causes the glass to crack.

Flauer [41]
 The client may be suffering from a neuroleptic malignant syndrome (NMS) which is a reaction to his antipsychotic medication. NMS is rare but
life-threatening and is characterized by high fever, muscular rigidity(that's why he can't move his arm), altered mental status hyperthermia, and autonomic dysfunction.

Since is life-threatening, it requires immediate treatment.

The diagram shows an experiment on the digestion of the protein in egg albumen by protease.
laila [671]

Answer:

<u>C</u>. containing

  • <u><em>egg albumen </em></u>
  • <u><em>protease </em></u>
  • <u><em>dilute  hydrochloric  acid</em></u>

Explanation:

A protease is a kind of peptidase enzyme that breaks down proteins into peptide molecules. As a digestive enzyme it is located in the lining of the stomach where, relative to the hydrochloric acid in digestive juices, the pH is usually low/ acidic.

<em>Enzymes speed up reaction rates by </em><em>providing alternative pathways</em>. By modifying the enzyme composition, supplying more collision energy, and changing the collisions between and the ratio of reactants, certain variables will increase the reaction rate.

Proteases function well at 37℃, the typical internal temperature of the human body- this temperature provides adequate energy for the reaction. Similarly, proteases require low pH for the correct configuration, and beyond this pH and temperature, they may become denatured or simply not function well as catalysts.

You splice DNA fragments from a "foreign" source into the patient's gene so that the gene will begin manufacturing the enzyme. T
Arada [10]

Answer:

recombinant DNA

Explanation:

In molecular biology, recombinant DNA molecules are genetic sequences formed by combining DNA material from different sources (i.e., organisms, populations, species, etc). Proteins produced from DNA recombinant molecules are known as recombinant proteins. Molecular cloning is the most widely used technique in molecular biology in order to produce recombinant DNA molecules. In this technique, a cloning vector such as, for example, a plasmid of a bacterium, is used to insert a foreign DNA fragment into another cell which is then expressed in the host cell.
