Answer:

This specie of bacteria requires less energy in order to reproduce and makes offspring.

E.coli does not depends on the other partner for the mode of reproduction.In case of E.coli the bacteria reproduces asexually as it does not involves two parents for its reproduction.

The time period that is required for the reproduction of daughter E.coli. is very less as compared to the other organism.

The energy that is required during this procedure is very less.

<h3>Answer;</h3>

The bacteria require less energy to make offspring,

They do not need a partner

Also the reproduction is faster and rapid compared to sexual reproduction.

<h3>Explanation;</h3>

Asexual reproduction is a type of reproduction that involves one parent and produces offspring that are genetically identical to each other and to the parent.
In sexual reproduction, on the other hand, two parents are involved, who produce reproductive cells called gametes that unite to form an offspring.
E. coli is a bacteria that reproduces asexually. An asexual reproducing organism can produce many offspring in a short period of time without utilizing energy to find a mate.

Meselson and Stahl's experiments proved that DNA replicates by which mode?

Irina18 [472]

Answer:

Semi-conservative

Explanation:

Meselson–Stahl experiment proved that DNA replication is a semiconservative process, feeding E. colo bacteria with different types of Nitrogen isotopes (N14 and N15).

Changing the type of radioactive compound in different times of bacteria grow, they could observe that both of the isotopes were present on the bacteria culture.

Basically, if the bacteria present both of them, the DNA was replicated semiconcervely.

Guess what? they show both! (See the image for more information)

Repeating the experiment multiple times

nalin [4]

Answer:

C) Practicing good scientific method and practices.

Explanation:

The text states, "repeating the experiment multiple times," as well as other preparations that a good scientist uses.

Doing something multiple times over is a good sign of a good scientific method.

Taking careful measurements, having several researchers run the same experiment, and only testing one variable at a time are all good practices that a scientist should use.
