Answer:
Human cells can readily absorb folic acid; bacteria cells cannot.
Explanation:
Bacterial cells cannot absorb folic acid and synthesize it. On the other hand, humans do not synthesize folic acid in their cells. They rather obtain it from the diet. Sulfa drugs, for example, sulfanilamide resemble p-aminobenzoate (PABA). PABA is a molecule that is used as a substrate in the synthesis of the coenzyme folic acid. The sulfa drugs serve as competitive inhibitors and compete with PABA for the catalytic site of an enzyme involved in the folic acid synthesis. This prevents the synthesis of folic acid in bacterial cells and thereby, inhibits bacterial growth.
Answer:
In Labrador dogs, black coat is dominant to chocolate, normal vision is dominant to progressive retinal atrophy (PRA), and normal hip joint is dominant to hip dysplasia. All these genes assort independently. Two dogs that are heterozygous for alleles of all three genes are crossed. Using rules of probability (not a Punnett square), what is the chance that the first pup born to these dogs will be chocolate, have normal vision, and have normal hip joints?
BbVvHh x BbVvHh= BBVVHH, BbVvHh, BbVvHh, bbvvhh
Bb= black coat dominant
Vv= Normal vision dominant
Hh= Normal hip join dominant
probability of having a first born of these dogs will be chocolate, have normal vision and have normal hip joint is 0
Explanation:
As the punette square gives 3:1 phenotype having three black coat, normal vision and normal hip joint and one chocolate, progressive retina altropy and hip dysplasia
A,C,D Is the answer to the question
Answer:
The correct answer is: mutualism
Explanation:
Mutualism refers to a relationship between two organisms, where both organisms benefit from the association. In this instance, the relationship between cellulose-digesting microorganisms and their hosts- termites and ruminant mammals- is characterized by mutualism because both organism benefit from their association. The microorganisms benefit by getting their nutrition from the cellulose in guts of their hosts. Whereas, the hosts benefit from the cellulose-digesting microorganisms by getting help in digesting the cellulose they consume in their diet.
