If the mutation is beneficial, the mutated organism survives to reproduce, and the mutation gets passed on to its offspring. In this way, natural selection guides the evolutionary process to incorporate only the good mutations into the species, and expunge the bad mutations.
An analogy that can link with the process of respiration can be a factory. For example, the way that the factory processes raw goods to make manufactured goods is similar to how the respiratory system takes in molecules and breaks it down into energy.
Answer:
The correct answer is B. The virus can infect the host.
Explanation:
- As the host and the virus both remain in the agar plate, the virus is capable of infecting the host cells.
- The host cell multiplies and grows by utilising the nutrient from the agar medium.
- After the virus particles infect the host, they replicate inside the host and produce new progeny virions which get released out of the host cell by killing it.
- The newly formed virions infect other host cells and the process continues.
- The killing of the host cells by the viruses result in the generation of clear zones on the agar plate which is also known as the zone of exclusion.
- In the zone of exclusion region, the host cells have been killed by the viruses.
Therapeutic cloning<span>generates personalized ES cells
o Uses the technique of nuclear transplantation to produce cultured ES cells
o The cell that has received the transplanted nucleus is allowed to undergo the earliest steps of development giving rise to a very early embryo consisting of about 200 cells
• Not transferred into the uterus of a foster mother but used as a source from which ES cells are derived
o Cells obtained are genetically identical to the original donor
• Can be grafted back into the adult from whom the donor tissue was taken without fear of immunological rejection</span>
