Answer: The simplest way is to determine if a strain is mutant is observing morphology, growth rate, double time, etc but it is accurate if you can prove if the strain is deficient in one aminoacid or can't metabolize lactose, etc.
Explanation: A wildtype strain functions normally, for example, can metabolize as a carbon source, glucose, lactose and other sugars, can synthesize all the aminoacids requered for protein synthesis, etc. If a strain suffers a mutation and it is inheritable, the strain become a mutant. Since several mutations can be silent ones, only those that interfere with a process, can be assesed easyly.
For example, if you have several strains and put them in a lactose medium, but some of them cannot growth means that are lactose mutants. Those strains could carry a mutation in genes that encode lactose degrading enzymes or in regulatory genes of the lac operon, etc.
I believe it’s because of San Andreas fault line if that helps
The eggs will have 5 chromosomes and the sperm would have 5 chromosomes because when they combine, they equal to a total of 10 chromosomes.
Answer:
B. 18
Explanation:
An atom, which is the smallest indivisible particle of matter, further contains certain particles called SUB-ATOMIC PARTICLES namely: proton, neutron and electron. In a neutral/uncharged atom, the number of proton is equal to the number of electrons. The number of protons in an atom represent its ATOMIC NUMBER.
However, the sum of the proton number and neutron number gives the MASS NUMBER i.e. mass no. = proton no. + electron no.
Hence, according to this question which states that an atom has an atomic number of 17 and a mass number of 35. The neutron no. can be calculated as follows:
Neutron no. = mass no. - proton no.
Neutron no. = 35 - 17
Neutron no. = 18
