Answer:

F plasmid.

Explanation:

Conjugation may be defined as the transfer of the genetic material from one bacterial cell to the another cell by the direct surface contact. This illustrate the phenomena of the horizontal gene transfer.

The plasmid is the extra chromosomal DNA present in the bacteria and can replicate independently of the chromosomal DNA. F plasmid or fertility plasmid is generally transfer during the conjugation process from F negative cells to F positive cells.

Thus, the correct answer is option (c).

Answer:

This is unethical.

Explanation:

Every creature contributes one way or the other to the existence of ecosystem,and the stabity of the biodervasity. The whale is one of the major componets of the aquatic biodiversity .Therefore continous killing whch may lead to extinction would distablized rthe bioderstiy and leads to the loss of ecosystem.

Besides,if whales goes into exticntion this would affet the future generations to learn from their existence?Therefore for preservation for future generations,they must be protected for extictinon.

The advent of biotechnology,has shown the genetic products of human and animals could be used to produce genetically modifjed product for humanity Thus if whale goes into exticntion this may not be possible.

One of the reasons bacteria can be so deadly is because they multiply very quickly. E. coli has a doubling time of around 15 min

Travka [436]

Answer:

The correct answer is - 25600 bacteria.

Explanation:

Bacteria can divide and produce double their population very quickly. As mentioned in the question bacteria multiply every 15 minutes to their double number. Finding the number of bacteria after 2 hours is simple mathematics. Two hours means 120 minutes and dividing it to 15. The result will be 8 which mean the bacteria double their colony 8 time so,

100×2 to the power 8 = 100 (initial number of bacteria)×2×2×2×2×2×2×2×2= 25600

Thus, the correct answer is option- 25600 bacteria.
