Hydrophobic is when it cannot dissolve in water and hydrophilic is when it can. an example is a phospholipid in the cell membrane- the the tails are hydrophobic and the heads are hydrophilic.

When an E. coli cell is infected by multiple phages, what route of infection (lytic or lysogenic) will the phages take? Why?
Artyom0805 [142]

Answer:

When an E.coli cell is infected by multiple phages,they will take either lytic or lysogenic pathway.

Explanation:

When lambda phage bacteriophage infects an E.coli,it can either undergo lytic cell growth and lyse the host cell or enter lysogenic pathway.

The operator region of lac operon in E.coli contain single repressor binding site whereas the lambda operators O_{L} and O_{R}  each contains 3 repressor binding sites (O_{L_1} ,    O_{L_2},O_{L_3} and O_{R_1},O_{R_2},O_{R_3})  that are differently occupied under different conditions.

The differential affinity of lambda repressor for the three binding sites in these operators play an important role in the maintenance of lysogenic state of lambda prophage in E.coli.

The lytic development occurs in cells infected with lambda phage that carry  C_1 gene.

In contrast,lysogeny will occur in bacteria that infected with lambda phage that harbor a deletion of Cro gene.

Contractions per M
Andreyy89

To make Paramecium Contractile vacuole concentration graph useful the salt concentrations descriptions should replaced with actual values.

Thus, option "A" is correct.

What is Paramecium Contractile vacuole

"It is a sub-cellular structure (organelle) involved in osmoregulation."

<h3>What is a graph?</h3>

"A diagram (such as a series of one or more points, lines, line segments, curves, or areas) that represents the variation of a variable in comparison with that of one or more other variables."

<h3>What does the graph in the given question depict?</h3>

It shows that the Paramecium Contractile Vacuole concentration per minute decreases as salt concentration increases.

But the concentration of salt is not mention in quantity so its not clear what are the lowest and highest concentration affecting Paramecium Contractile Vacuole.

Hence, the Paramecium Contractile Vacuole concentration graph can be more useful if the actual values of salt concentration will be mentioned.
