 Unicellular organisms have unusual ways ofmoving. The euglena have tiny hair-like structures called flagella. The flagella beat in the water and move the cell forward.

the graph in figure 5.1 shows the growth of a bacterial population which of the following correctly describes the growth curve
defon

The right answer is exponential.

The bacterium multiplies by binary fission: the bacteria grow and then divide into two daughter cells separated by a septum of division formed by the cell wall. During division, the DNA is duplicated as well as the other constituents. Various enzymatic systems of synthesis and degradation participate in cell division.

Bacterial growth is the orderly growth of all components of the bacteria. It results in an increase in the number of bacteria.

During the growth, there is, on one hand, depletion of nutrients in the culture medium and, secondly, an enrichment of by-products of metabolism, potentially toxic. Growth can be studied in a liquid or solid medium.

1 - Growth curve: The growth of a bacterium is studied in a liquid medium. There are 6 phases which together constitute the growth curve.

. Latency phase: the zero growth rate (μ = 0). The duration of this phase depends on the age of the bacteria and the composition of the medium. This is the time required for the bacteria to synthesize the enzymes adapted to the new substrate (no lag phase if transplanting on the same medium as the previous one).

. Acceleration phase: There is an increase in the growth rate.

. Exponential growth: the growth rate reaches a maximum (μ = max). This phase lasts as long as the growth rate is constant. The doubling time of bacteria is the shortest. The cell mass is represented by viable cells (zero mortality).

. Slowing phase: the speed of growth decreases. There is a depletion of the culture medium and an accumulation of waste. There is a beginning of autolysis of bacteria.

. Stationary maximum phase: the growth rate becomes naked (μ = 0). Bacteria that multiply compensate for those that die.

. Decline phase: the growth rate is negative (μ <0). All the nutritional resources are exhausted. There is accumulation of toxic metabolites. There is a decrease in viable organisms and cell lysis under the action of endogenous proteolytic enzymes. However, growth persists by release of substances released during lysis (cryptic growth).

Why does the damage of the nervous system cause paralysis of the body?
Shtirlitz [24]
Paralysis is most often caused by damage in the nervous system, especially the spinal cord. The nervous system is what give signals to the different parts of our body so that if it is damaged signals and messages could not be transported. If the central nervous system is damaged, paralysis frequently affects the movement of a limb as a whole, not the individual muscles.

What is most likely a product of an early gene?
HACTEHA [7]

The question is incomplete. The complete question is as follows:

Which of the following is most likely a product of an early gene?

A capsid proteins

B DNA polymerase

C envelope proteins

D spike proteins

E lysozyme

Answer:

DNA polymerase .

Explanation:

Early gene may be defined as the gene that are activated immediately and the representation of this gene is important for the particular mechanism of the cell.

The DNA polymerase is the product of the early gene as the DNA polymerase is an important enzyme that are required for the DNA replication and can give immediate response to the different stimuli during the process of DNA replication.

Thus, the correct answer is option (B).
