Answer: Yes, it is called as thermal pollution

Thermal pollution can be defined as the degradation of the quality of water by any processes that are known to change the water temperature.

As the temperature of water bodies increases, the green algae may be replaced by cyanobacteria. One of the main problems with thermal pollution is the replacement of cold water fishes with the warm water.

Industrial factories and power plants are the main contributors of thermal pollution

The warm water changes the metabolism pattern of the fishes, it increases their metabolism, which leads to malnutrition as a result of that all the fishes die. Warm water also depletes the dissolved oxygen and increases the level of bacteria. It will result in abundant of nutrients, will lead to overpopulation of aquatic life. As a result of increased algal growth, other aquatic animals are not able to grow because of a lack of photosynthesis, they die because of a lack of oxygen, which will pollute the marine environment.

4) Name the type of symbiotic relationship in which the host is harmed. Give two examples.

Marina86 [1]

Symbiosis is a close relationship between two species in which at least one species benefits. For the other species, the relationship may be positive, negative, or neutral. There are three basic types of symbiosis: mutualism, commensalism, and parasitism.

Mutualism

Mutualism is a symbiotic relationship in which both species benefit. An example of mutualism involves goby fish and shrimp

Jack was sick with a cold and fever. the doctor prescribed him erythromycin, an antibiotic. analyzing the process of translation

KatRina [158]

Answer:

This is because it is a selective antibiotic that, when entering the body, binds to the 50s subunit of bacterial ribosomes, thus causing the disruption of protein transcription of bacteria.

This drug does not stop the transcription of human proteins since bacteria and humans do not have the same ribosomes, therefore, humans or sick cells do not have the active site to which the drug binds.

This drug does not stop the transcription of human proteins since bacteria and humans do not have the same ribosomes, therefore humans or host cells do not have the active site to which the drug binds.

Erythromycin falls into the macrolide family and is considered a drug that is bacteriostatic at low concentrations and bactericidal at very high concentrations.

The difference between these named terms is that one ends the life of the bacterium (bactericidal) and the other stops the bacterial metabolism preventing its possibility of increasing in number.

01. A Study is Being Planned to Examine the Effects of Drug 911-918. The Goal of the Study is to Examine the Effects of Drug

Leona [35]

The Best-Correct Statements as it Pertains to the Control Group and Experimental Group are:

The Control Group Receives No Drug while The Experimental Group Receives No Drug 911-918.

<h3 />

What are the control and experimental group in a study?

The control group in a study is the group in which no changes are applied to the group.

In the control group, the variables are kept constant, hence, the control group is also known as the constant group.

The experimental group in a study is the group to which the treatment being studied is applied. The control group receives the treatment of the variable under study.

Hence, the group that receives the drug 911-918 is the experimental group.
