Explain the function of replication.

Biology
1 answer:
viva [34]3 years ago
6 0

Answer and Explanation:

During DNA replication, the genetic information is duplicated to ensure that each cell in an organism has a complete and correct copy of the organism's genome. This occurs during each instance of cell division. This way two identical DNA molecules are formed from the original single molecule. Each of the new DNA molecules gets incorporated into one of the two nuclei formed just prior to separation of the daughter cells.

Explain why an organism cannot choose to have a mutation that would enable it to live more successfully in its environment.
vaieri [72.5K]

Answer:

Explanation:

An organism can't chose to have a mutation because it depends on the way they are born. If they are missing some type of mineral, (Protein, Vitamin, etc.) they will have a mutation because they're missing that. Well, something similar to a mutation is natural selection and genes. For example, there are some short and tall giraffes. The tall ones can reach the tree and the short ones can't so they die and the tall ones can reproduce and their offspring will inherit that trait

B. Prepare a FLOWCHART for the isolation of the following: (conventional methods only: culture, through a by product and/or immu
yaroslaw [1]

1.  Dysentery caused by <em>Shigella dysenteriae</em><em> </em>is isolated using MacConkey Lactose agar and Xylose Lysine agar

2. Antibiotic associated diarrhea caused by <em>Clostridium difficile</em> (detection of toxin) is isolated using <em>Clostridium difficile</em> selective medium

3. Dermatophyte infection in the nails is isolated using potatoes dextrose agar

4.  Dengue fever by immune response is isolated using minimal essential medium (MEM)

1.  Dysentery caused by <em>Shigella dysenteriae</em>

  • Collection of fecal specimens  and  poultry  (100)  fecal  samples  collected  from were processed according to published protocols.    
  • Streak one loopful of fecal sample on  MacConkey  Lactose  Agar  (MLA)  and  Xylose  Lysine agar
  • Incubated at 37 C for 24 hours  
  • The MLA plates showing the presence of convex and colorless  colonies are considered for  further identification.
  • Similarly, the XLD plates showing appearance of presence of translucent or red colored colonies are taken for further identification.

2. Antibiotic associated diarrhea caused by <em>Clostridium difficile </em>(detection of toxin)

  • Mix equal parts of industrial absolute  alcohol and the fecal specimen.
  • Homogenize using a vortex mixer.
  • Leave at room temperature for 1 hr.
  • Inoculate on <em> </em><em>Clostridium difficile  </em>Selective Agar
  • Incubate at  37ºC  in a conventional anaerobic gas jar
  • Observe after 24-48 hours in anaerobic environment .  
  • Use gram stain reagent and Malachite green for morphological study.
  • Observe positive bacillus cell shape with single or chains(2-6)cell and sub terminal endo spore forming after gram staining

3. Dermatophyte infection in the nails

  • Prepare potatoes dextrose agar (PDA)
  • Collect clippings from the nail with a sterile scalpel after carefully washing the site with 70% alcohol.
  • Dissolved in two drops of 10% KOH on a glass slide, if the sample is thick, use 20% KOH
  • Heat the slide few seconds over a spirit lamp, do not allow to boil.
  • Observe preparation under a low power of the microscope in reduced light.
  • Look out for presence of mycelia fragments and the distribution of spores inside.

4.   Dengue fever by immune response

  • Dilute blood samples in minimal essential medium (MEM) containing 2% fetal bovine serum (FBS)
  • Add diluent to a cultured monolayer of C6/36 cells for 1 hour with gentle rocking in a 28 °C CO2 incubator.
  • After 1 hour, remove the inoculum and cells
  • Culture for 7 days in MEM with 2% FBS and antibiotics.
  • Collect culture supernatant on day 7 and infect a new batch of C6/36 cells
  • Repeat the procedure three times to achieve passage 3 (P3) isolates.

Which processes of the water cycle move water from the atmosphere into surface water reservoirs?
elixir [45]
A water reservoir is a natural or artificial lake in which water is stored for human use. The only process that can take water from the atmosphere (vapour) to a water reservoir is precipitation.

Precipitation is the process in which small water particles collide and join, making bigger water drops that will eventually be too heavy and fall to the ground in a process otherwise known as rain (if the water is in liquid state).


Answer:

\boxed{\bf~Precipitation.}
