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.

36. how can you increase surface area but not volume of an object? biology
solong [7]
Folds, wrinkles, etc!
by folding the membrane of an organelle, surface area is optimized while volume remains the same. that is why mitochondria looks folded on the inside when you see pictures of it. the higher the surface area to volume ratio, the more efficient the organelle.

How does global warming lead to climate change?
Aleonysh [2.5K]

Answer:

global warming leads to climate change as global warming is caused by carbon dioxide trapped in the earth's atmosphere. sunlight can get trapped in the atmosphere as there is a high concentration of CO 2 so the sunlight hits the CO 2 and it bounces back to earth and because the CO 2 is covering the atmospehere it will keep on reflecting and that heats up the air causing water to evaporate and the climate to change

i hope this helps :)

please give me brainliest ! i just need 3 more then i am on expert
