Answer:

The correct answer is option (D) "His- strain grows on an his- plate".

Explanation:

The Ames test is a procedure that allows to detect if a given compound can cause mutations on a tested organism by growing strains of bacteria that require histidine (His-) to growth, since they are not able to produce its own histidine. In the Ames test, the bacteria is exposed to a given compound and is grown in a medium with small amount of histidine (his- plate). If the His- strain grows on a his- plate, it means that the bacteria has mutated to synthesize its own histidine and it is considered as a positive result on a the Ames test.

Which of the following is an example of diffraction?
makkiz [27]

<u>Answer:</u>

You try to pick up a shell in the water but it isn't where it appears to be is an example of diffraction

<u>Explanation:</u>

Diffraction refers to the light bending that happens as the light passes about the edge of some object. How much bending takes place is found by the size of wavelength of light relative to that of opening. If the opening is larger than the wavelength of light, then bending will not be noticeable.

Since, light gets diffracted due to water hence the shell kept inside the water appears to be at a different position than where it actually is

how do oxygen and carbon dioxide cross from the alveoli through the capillary walls and into the blood?

The concentration gradient of oxygen in your lungs wants to flow toward homeostasis and oxygen is bound on red blood cells by hemoglobin, along with the attraction of oxygen to hemoglobin. The concentration gradient from carbon dioxide from the capillary to the lungs. There is more oxygen in your lungs (alveoli) than there is carbon dioxide and everything want to reach homeostasis, or level amounts on both sides.
