Answer: D. helps in digestion
Explanation: Gastric juice in the stomach contains HCL which creates an acidic condition(pH1.5-2.0) which is optimal for the action of enzymes in the stomach. HCL stops the activity of salivary amylase & helps to kill bacteria in food. It doesn’t help in digestion cuz it is not an enzyme.
I. treating the substance with nucleases that destroy all nucleic acids and then determining whether it is still infectious
Explanation:
Analysis of the nature of the specimen like the infectious agents (bacterium, virus, viriod, or prion) is very important to diagnose the diseases caused by them, investigate disease outbreak, to determine the clinical course of the infectious disease etc.
There are many methods like direct detection, cultivation assays, serological assays to detect the pathogen type.
Molecular techniques like polymerase chain reaction (PCR) is done to further analyze or investigate the pathogen, like its microbial genome, the virulence factor etc. These are amplification methods which help to investigate the pathogenesis and disease progression. PCR method involves denaturing the DNA polymerase which is a nuclease type of enzyme. Nucleases are present with exonucleases and endonucleases, both of which acts at specific points on the DNA of the pathogen and will create new templates .
