Answer:

B. differential

Explanation:

The culture medium is a chemical preparation that has the necessary nutrients for microorganisms of a given biological sample to multiply, allowing its study, identification and analysis. The main components of a culture medium are sources of carbon, energy (sugars), nitrogen, phosphorus and minerals.

There are several types of culture medium, among them we can mention the differential culture medium, which is the type of medium that is being used in the experiment shown in the question above. The differential culture medium allows the distinction between various genera and species of similar microorganisms. This distinction is possible because this type of culture medium has substances that allow for a presumptive differentiation, evidenced by the color change or the morphology of the colonies.

Abnormal chromosomes are frequently found in malignant tumors. Errors such as translocations may place a gene in close proximity
mihalych1998 [28]

Answer:

B) expression of inappropriate gene products

Explanation:

Most of the cancers are caused when a normal gene that code for one or other proteins involved in the regulation of the cell cycle is mutated. The mutated gene may cause the production of the faulty gene products. For example, the overproduction of products of the protooncogene that push cells through the cell cycle leads to tumor formation. Likewise, when the tumor suppressor genes are not able to produce enough product to prevent progression through the cell cycle, cancer may develop.
