Compare and contrast binary fission and conjugation. Which process increases genetic diversity?

-Binary fission is the form of asexual reproduction and cell division used by prokaryotic organisms (such as bacteria or archea). A prokaryotic cell by divides into two parts, and each half has the potential to grow to the size of the original cell.

-Bacterial conjugation is the transfer of genetic material between bacteria through direct cell-to-cell contact. It is merely the transfer of genetic information from a donor cell to a recipient. In order to perform conjugation, one of the bacteria, the donor, must play host to a conjugative or mobilizable genetic element, most often a conjugative or mobilizable plasmid or transposon. Most conjugative plasmids have systems ensuring that the recipient cell does not already contain a similar element.

Binary Fission- asexual
Conjugation- sexual

It's pretty confusing at the least really.

what is the substance found in many plants that is not considered a nutrient but has many healthful benefits?
amid [387]

Answer:

The correct answer is phytochemicals.

Explanation:

Phytochemicals refer to the components, which are generated by plants. They are witnessed in vegetables, fruits, beans, grains, and other plants. Some of these phytochemicals are considered to protect cells from destruction, which could result in cancer. The phytochemicals are not considered as nutrients, but possesses many health benefits:  

1. It helps in ceasing carcinogens from attacking cells.  

2. It helps to prevent the generation of potential cancer-resulting substances.  

3. It assists the cells to prevent and eradicate any kind of cancer-like modifications.  

Some of the phytochemicals, which are considered as the most beneficial ones are polyphenols in tea, beta-carotene and other carotenoids in vegetables and fruits, and isothiocyanates found in cruciferous vegetables.

The fossilized teeth of ancestors of the modern horse have grown progressively larger and flatter over the past 60 million years
ohaa [14]
Because nowadays, many horses are domesticated, and food they would have eaten in the wild, they don't usually eat anymore. They have learnt to adapt to eating other foods, like hay, that require molars to ingest. This is why over time, their tooth structure has changed.

Suppose you are recording a neuron’s resting membrane potential. If you added more KCl to the external medium, what would happen
Talja [164]

Answer:

addition to the external medium.

Genearlly, potassium is an intracellualr ion, therefore there is higher concentration of potasium ions with its positive charges inside than outside.In addition potassium ion has many leaking potassium  channels in the cell membrane,which permit K+ to escape down the gradient to the extracellular medium.

Therefore when  KCl is added to the external medium of a resting neuron, the concentration of external K+ increase than intracellular medium, preventing K+ from diffusing out  to the external medium, retaining their positive charges, therefore favouring depolarization of the neuron.This  decreases the RMP, leading  to depolarization.

If the KCl is reduced, less k+ are available outside  compare to the inner medium.Therefore  electrochemical gradients  is sets up for leaking of K+out of the intracellular layers, caring  the positive charges along, leaving the inside more negative (together with the negative charges of the  anions of the intracellular layer). This is reversal of charges.And it  increases the RMP.
