Anni [7]

Answer:

Polymyxin because, it inserts into the cell membrane and disrupts homeostasis.

Explanation:

Antimicrobial effect reacts with the cell membrane of the gram negative bacteria and causes disruption in their cell membrane by creating pores.

The cell membrane of bacteria release endotoxin for creating defense mechanism.

But the effect of certain antimicrobial peptide disrupt the effect of membrane by releasing electrostatic interaction and creates membrane pores.

Differentiate between density-dependent and
Setler [38]

Answer/Explanation:

Density-dependent limiting factors are non living and biotic factors that affect the size and growth of a population based on the population density, while density-independent limiting factors are those factors that do not depend on the density of a population before they can have an effect on the growth and size of the population.

Examples of density-dependent limiting factors are predation, disease, Parasitism, competition. These rely on the density of a population in order to affect the growth and size of a population.

On the other hand, examples of density-independent limiting factors are pollution, flood, temperature.
