Answer:

A process that eliminates harmful alleles from a gene pool is negative selection.

Explanation:

When an allele is deleterious, it means that has negative consequences for the reproduction and survivor of an organism. When an individual has the deleterious allele, his chances of surviving decreased. After some time, individuals with no deleterious allele will predominate and finally that ones that has it, will dissapear. This process is called negative selection and involves that a deleterious allele will be selectively eliminated from a gene pool.

A disease was caused by a bacterium; you want to produce a biological product to kill this bacterium. Which product you have to
makvit [3.9K]

Answer:

The product that must be produced to kill a bacterium —which causes a disease— is an antibiotic, which through biotechnology can investigate the structure of the bacterium and synthesize the chemical formula needed to produce antibiotics in high amounts.

Explanation:

Antibiotics are specific medicines for the treatment of infectious diseases, produced by bacteria. <u>Antibiotics can kill bacteria and prevent their replication</u>.

If a disease is produced by bacteria, the product that is necessary to kill those microbes is an antibiotic, for which biotechnology is useful.

By using biotechnology —a branch of biology that uses technology as a research and development tool— it is possible:

  • <em>Know the structure, functions and behavior of pathogenic bacterial strains. </em>
  • <em>Create chemical formulas -antibiotics- that serve to effectively eliminate bacteria, and cure infectious diseases. </em>
  • <em>The synthesis and production of antibiotics on a large scale, allowing their sufficient availability for use.</em>

A= adenine
T=thymine
C=Cytosine
