Answer:

Fertilization

Explanation:

Egg and sperm are cells known as gametes produced by the GAMETOPHYTE of a sexually-reproducing organism via meiosis. Since egg and sperm cells are produced through meiotic division, their chromosomal number is reduced by half of the parental organism. Hence, sperms and eggs are haploid cells (n) produced by a diploid organism (2n).

Sperm is the male gamete while egg is the female gamete. These two haploid gametes fuse in a process called FERTILIZATION, to produce a diploid ZYGOTE that eventually grows into the diploid structure of the organism called SPOROPHYTE. This system of reproduction called ALTERNATION OF GENERATIONS is used by lower and higher plants.

Natali [406]

Answer:

Infectious dose refers to the minimum number or amount of pathogens required in order to produce a disease or its symptoms. In the given case, the bacterium is non-resistant and is treated with antibiotics.

The antibiotics help in neutralizing the infectious agents; however, full course should be done to eliminate the infectious agent completely out of the body.

If the course is left in between then, there are very high chances that some bacteria may survive. They might not produce disease or symptoms as they would be less than infectious dose.

However, with time, the survived bacteria gain more and more mutations during replication which can develop antibiotic resistance capability in them.

In addition, it is also possible that the survived bacteria can get R-plasmid (which has antibiotic resistant gene) from body's normal flora or from any other infectious agent present in the body by the process of transformation or conjugation.

The R-plasmid enables them to survive even in the presence of antibiotics due to which the treatment of the disease might become difficult.

8. What factor contributes the most to the overall health and sustainability of an<br> ecosystem?
ad-work [718]
The higher biodiversity in an ecosystem means that there is a greater variety of genes and species in that ecosystem. A great variety of genes and species means that the ecosystem is better able to carry out natural processes in the face of external stress. Thus, the ecosystem is more sustainable.

tigry1 [53]

Answer:

The correct answer is C) The compound is an allosteric inhibitor.

Explanation:

An inhibitor works in many ways, but this particular one binds to the allosteric site in the enzyme causing a decrease of the enzymatic activity. When this situation happens, the inhibitor doesn't bind to the active site, but it changes the enzyme's shape so it cannot work properly anymore.
