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>

4. A single-celled organism that a student observed under a microscope is shown below.
Katyanochek1 [597]

Explanation:

D. The organism is eukaryotic because it has membrane-bound organelles.

Cells are the basic microscopic units of all organisms. There are two cell types, Prokaryotes and Eukaryotes.

Prokaryotic ( meaning pro: before and Karyon: for kernel/nut) describes organisms which don’t have a cell nucleus or other organelles surrounded by membranes. Eukaryotic  (eu meaning true), are organisms with a cell nucleus and several other organelles surrounded by membranes. Example prokaryotes do not contain: nuclei , Golgi apparatus, chloroplasts, mitochondria

<em>Both may contain a cell wall (seen in eukaryotic fungi and plant cells)</em>

<em />

Arranged in a phospholipid bilayer, the membrane is semi-permeable; allowing entry into the extracellular fluid or the cytoplasm which are both hydrophilic and contain large concentrations of polar water molecules or other water-soluble compounds. The hydrophilic heads of the bilayer are attracted to water while their water-repellent hydrophobic tails face towards each other- allowing molecules of water and hydrophilic molecules to move across the membrane along the concentration gradient.

Their structural components (i.e. their makeup) determine their function (what they do) . For instance, photosynthesizing cells in algae and plants have structures called chloroplasts. These contain chlorophyll, a specialized compound which facilitates the conversion of light energy to energy stored in carbohydrates. In specific cell types, collected proteins may function as a unit called an organelle. Some organelles are bound by membranes like those that make up the external structure of the cell, with varying compositions of phospholipids and proteins. These are advantageous, as they:

  • may increase metabolic reaction efficiency; they allow cells to concentrates smaller fractions of enzymes and solutes
  • separate proteins and molecules that me harm the cell by parceling them into membrane-bound organelles for example, proteaseas bound within lysosomes can break down many structural proteins

Ulleksa [173]

The terms for each description are:

  1. <u>Edwin Hubble:</u> known as the father of the Big Bang Theory.
  2. <u>Albert Einstein:</u> responsible for the general theory of relativity.

<h3>How to match the terms with each description?</h3>

In this exercise, you're required to match the appropriate terms with each description as follows:

<u>Cosmological Principle:</u> states that all matter is evenly distributed throughout the universe, in the same amounts, moving in the same directions, and in the same ways.

<u>Gravity:</u> thought to have started the "Big Bang".

<u>Expansion:</u> Hubble's law tells us this is happening to the universe.

<u>Explosion:</u> formed the stars, galaxies, and solar system.

<u>Edwin Hubble:</u> he is known as the father of the Big Bang Theory.

<u>Albert Einstein:</u> he is responsible for the general theory of relativity.
