The penicillin will kill the bacteria that were transformed is not a true statement.

Explanation:

The bacterial culture is genetically engineered with recombinant plasmids containing genes resistant to penicillin, hence when treated with penicillin, the bacteria will not be killed.

Bacteria develops resistance to chemicals or drugs like antibiotics namely penicillin over the course and becomes resistant to the drug action. The effectiveness of the drug will either be reduced or eliminated and the bacteria gains the ability to survive, reproduce and grow and increase their colony.

Recombinant bacteria will undergo genetic mutation and can develop resistance against antibiotics like penicillin. The recombinant plasmids further provides extra protection and prevents the entry of drugs or chemicals into the bacterial cell.

Answer:

Water flowing over Earth's surface or underground causes erosion and deposition. Water flowing over a steeper slope moves faster and causes more erosion. Erosion and deposition by slow-flowing rivers create broad floodplains and meanders. Deposition by streams and rivers may form alluvial fans and deltas.

Which organic molecule would a long-distance runner most likely choose to eat before a race?
Over [174]
Biomolecules are organic compounds that are present as essential components of living things. There are four major biomolecules namely lipids, proteins, carbohydrates and nucleic acids. Proteins, lipids and glucose are usually used by organisms as energy sources as well as structural components among other functions in living organisms. Nucleic acids are important components that bring about heredity. In this case the appropriate molecule to be chosen by the long distance learner would be carbohydrate because it stores and may be used as a source of energy.

Genrish500 [490]

Answer: .OH, O2-, H2O2

Explanation:

Reactive oxygen species (ROS) are chemically reactive and unstable species containing oxygen. ROS are formed when oxygen is partially reduced, thus they are all radicals with very high reactivity, attacking membrane proteins such as ion channels etc

Examples include peroxides (H2O2), superoxide (O2-), hydroxyl radical (.OH)
