Answer:

E.coli is a bacterium which is preffered for transformation due to its rapid growth and high efficiency of introduction of DNA molecules into cells.

Tetracycline is an antibiotic used to treat several infections such as cholera, plague, brucellosis, and malaria etcetra.

Plasmid is a small, extrachromosomal DNA molecule present in cell which is seprated from chromosomal DNA and have ability to replicate independently.

When a plasmid resistant to tetracycline and kanamycine is inserted into E.coli, the process is called transformation. E.coli might not be able to survive due to absence of plasmid but the transformed strains having antibiotic tetracycline and kanamycine will probably be able to survive it.

Hence, the culture of bacteria carrying plasmid will be able to survive only.

Your left wrist is what anatomical direction from your left elbow?
Norma-Jean [14]

Answer:

The correct answer will be- distal

Explanation:

In anatomy, the anatomist defined the standard position and movement of the bones of the skeletal system by universal anatomical terminologies.

The directional position of the bones of arms and legs is represented by the proximal and distal plane.

The proximal direction represents the bone closest to the point of origin or reference while distal represents the bone closest to the farthest away from the reference.  Since the left wrist is farther from the reference or the elbow therefore, it is considered distal to the elbow.

Thus, distal is the correct answer.
