Answer:
Colchicine inhibits the formation of microtubules by inhibiting tubulin, a protein required for microtubule synthesis. Microtubules in the form of spindle fibers during cell division pull the DNA from the center of the mother cell into the new daughter cells. If microtubules are not formed DNA will not move into new cells. Hence new cell formation will be inhibited in the metaphase stage. Thus the correct answer is option D.

Answer:
Explanation:
The O-F glucose test (oxidative-fermentation) is used to determine whether an organism is performs oxidative or fermentative metabolism.
Oxidative metabolism (i.e respiration) takes place in the presence of oxygen while fermentative takes place in the absence of oxygen.
Facultative anaerobes can carry out both fermentation and respiration.
The O-F medium has glucose, peptones and a pH indicator. When the pH of the medium is acidic, that is glucose has been broken down, the medium turns yellow. When it is basic, it turns blue implying that peptone and not glucose had been broken down.
The sealed tube is overlaid with oil so as to prevent oxygen from getting in, making it anaerobic.
The unsealed tube allows oxygen.
Enterics would be yellow is both tubes because they are facultative anaerobes and can grow in the presence or absence of oxygen, hence they carry out both respiration and fermentation.
Answer:
scientist has estimated that over 8.7million species in the world of plants and animals in existence, though as few as 6.5million on land and 2.2million in the ocean
Answer:
A transition at position +12 in the antisense strand
A deletion of the A at position +7 in the antisense strand
Explanation:
Given that Adenine of the start codon is located at the +1 position, The correct statements that describe missense mutations are
- A transition at position +12 in the antisense strand
- A deletion of the A at position +7 in the antisense strand
Adenine is a purine nucleobase that is used in the formation of nucleic acids
