<span>Joints with no movement are called immoveable or fibrous joints.They are also called synathrosis, they are only separated by a thin layer of fibrous connective tissue e.g are the sutures of the skull. Joints that are more loosely connected are called freely moveable or synovial joints. They are also called diarthrosis.The joints are held together by an articular capsule comprised of ligaments. A synovial membrane lines the inside of the capsule and secretes synovial fluid which lubricates the joint (hence it's name).</span>

In general, why might cell-wall inhibiting antimicrobial drugs be less effective on gram-negative bacteria compared to gram-posi
asambeis [7]

Cell-wall inhibiting antimicrobial drugs be less effective on gram-negative bacteria compared to gram-positive bacteria because the outer membrane of the gram-negative bacteria inhibits penetration of the drug and the peptidoglycan found in gram-positive bacteria is structurally different from that in gram-negative bacteria.  

Answer: Option B & C

<u>Explanation:</u>

Antimicrobial drugs are induced into a body to act on that particular selective bacterium which causes disease. When antimicrobial drugs are injected they act efficiently on the gram positive bacteria inhibiting the proliferation of the cells by acting on the cell wall so that cell multiplication doesn’t happen.

On the other hand it is hard to act on the gram-negative bacteria as it has a cell membrane that inhibits drug penetration into it. Both cell walls contain peptidoglycan but in the gram-positive is more assembled and layered while in the gram-negative it is just a thin layer. As gram-positive is thick layered it provides place for another molecule to attach to it but the thin layer in gram-negative inhibits it.

Please help! thank ya :)
Brilliant_brown [7]

Trichomes increase the chances of survival for plants living in areas with infrequent rainfall.

If a plant in a very rainy place had trichomes, it would probably adapt and remove them as time passed as they are unnecessary.
