There is an antibiotic called streptomycin that doctors prescribe for infection. The antibiotic combines with the bacteria's rib

osomes causing
them to lose their function. Consequently, the cells die and the person gets better. In other words, the antibiotic destroys bacteria by

Answer:

By stopping the synthesis of proteins.

Explanation:

Streptomycin combines with the bacteria's ribosomes causing them to lose their function, the cells die and actually, this antibiotic destroys all the bacteria by stopping the synthesis of protein bacteria.

This antibiotic is blocking the development of bacteria. Streptomycin was used to fight tuberculosis and it's been made from the micro-organism <em>Actinobacterium Streptomyces griseus. </em>

How does a topographic map help an architect?
Natalka [10]

Answer:

Of course topography affects architecture. The ground provides the basic support for the building. If you are building on a highly sloped site, an architect must consider the slope of the site in determining the finish floor elevation, and if multiple entry levels will be needed to get in and out of the building.

What are some important facts about Alveoli that everybody should know?
xeze [42]
Alveoli are part of the reparation system found in the lungs. They are covered in capillaries. In Alveoli, oxygen diffuses from the air into the blood vessels surrounding the alveoli and carbon dioxide from the body diffuses from blood into the alveoli’s air spaces. Alveoli clump together and form sacs.

Abiogenesis refers to how living organisms arose from inanimate matter. Place the sentences in order according to how life on Ea
horrorfan [7]

Answer:

(A) -> (D) -> (C) -> (B)

Explanation:

First off, given that the problem requires us to explain how life on Earth may have arisen <u>from terrestrial origins</u>, we can discard sentence (E), as impacts from meteorites would count as extraterrestrial origins.

Then it's just a matter of describing the steps by which simple compounds turned into more and more complex structures, that would in turn lead to the origin of life.

Simple inorganic compounds (such as CO₂, or NH₃) were exposed to energy, because of that they formed simple organic molecules, like carbohydrates or amino acids.

These organic molecules, in turn, would self-assemble into more complex structures, such as proteins.

Lastly, there's the phenomenon of Compartmentalization, where large organic structures became enclosed within a membrane-like structure, separating them from the 'outside' medium and thus creating primitive cells.

HELP SOS PLEASE !!!!! (ONLY CORRECT ANSWERS PLEASE)

Answer:

1- Option A) describes an index fossil. Trilobite existed for a short time, but was abundant and lived in many locations.

2- Option B) Continents were once joined and have since drifted apart.

Explanation:

1) Fossils are animal and vegetable rests found in different strata of sedimentary rocks. Sedimentary layers deposit chronologically, so they are used to reflect history. They keep in each layer some of the forms of life that inhabited that area in the past. These fossils turn to be very useful while dating ages. The term Index fossils refer to those fossils that only existed in a given era or geological period during evolution.  

Index fossils must:    

• Be easily recognizable and distinguishable from all the other fossils

• Have lived in a relatively short geological period

• Present a wide geographic distribution

• Have lived in different sedimentary basins

• Appear in different types of rocks

• Be abundant

<em>A) Trilobite existed for a short time, but was abundant and lived in many locations. </em>The species accomplish the requirements. It is easily recognizable, had a wide geographic distribution, was abundant, and lived for a short time.  

2) The tectonic plates theory states that there is a continual movement of the crust. It explains the movement of the different plates and their directions and interactions. The continental drift theory explains how these movements have been taking place since millions of years ago. When continents were together in a unique continent, many species used to inhabit it. When plates started to separate, they took some of these species that got apart by the ocean. Some species were already dead and fossilized, while some other organisms died during continental drift and got fossilized after the divergence. <em>The existence of the same fossils, placed in the same layers and of the same age, suggests that they used to inhabit the same area and died during the same time, meaning that continents were together when they got fossilized. </em>
