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.

Reasons for seasons<br>​
Sergio039 [100]

Answer:

As the earth spins on its axis, producing night and day, it also moves about the sun in an elliptical (elongated circle) orbit that requires about 365 1/4 days to complete. The earth's spin axis is tilted with respect to its orbital plane. This is what causes the seasons. At different times of the year, the sun's rays hit different parts of the globe more directly. The angle of the Earth's axis tilts the Northern Hemisphere towards the sun during the summer. Without the tilt of the earth's axis, we wouldn't have seasons.

Explain why there is a difference in the amount of oxygen taken in at rest and during the vigorous activity. ​
s2008m [1.1K]

Answer: During vigorous exercise your breathing rate increases in order to intake more oxygen

Explanation:  during vigorous exercise / activity the body needs more oxygen in order to produce energy so your breathing rate increases in order to reach the demand of more intake of oxygen , and your muscles work harder due to an increase in oxygen demand and how much oxygen the muscles take from the blood during vigorous exercises , BUT during rest we have normal rate of oxygen intake because your body is at rest at that moment .
