Suppose an exponentially growing culture of bacteria is treated with a potential antimicrobial compound. Over the next few hours

, cell doubling stops (untreated, control cultures continue doubling), but the cells remain metabolically active. This antimicrobial compound is

Answer:

Bacteriostatic

Explanation:

The antibiotics are the compounds which are used to treat the bacteria and are of two types: the bacteriostatic and bactericidal.

The bacteriostatic antibiotics are the antibiotics that do not kill the cells but they stop the reproduction of the bacteria and keep them in their stationary phase.

In the given question, since the antibiotic does not kill the cell but stops the doubling that is reproduction therefore the antibiotic is bacteriostatic.

Thus, bacteriostatic is correct.

Answer:

Archaebacteria

Explanation:

Archaebacteria is a group of single-celled organism present on the earth which are thought to be descended from the ancient bacteria.

These bacteria can survive the extreme or harsh conditions present on the Earth-like in the hot springs.

The archaebacteria cell membrane is made up of ether-linked phospholipids which are ester-linked in Eubacteria and eukaryotes.  The sugar present in the archaebacteria is very similar to peptidoglycan in composition but it is not peptidoglycan.

Thus, Archaebacteria is the correct answer.

a researcher proposes a model of an enzyme catalyzed reaction in which reactant is converted to a product. The model is based on
777dan777 [17]

Answer:

<u>The enzyme's active site binds to and stabilizes the transition state, which decreases the activation energy of the reaction.</u>

Explanation:

Enzymes are complex multi-folded forms of proteins - they promote chemical reactions in biological processes.

Typically, molecules collide at random, and complex chemical reactions require the right molecular orientation and energy to react (breaking and forming bonds).

Enzymes lower energy needs by providing an alternative reaction pathway and stabilize and maintain the molecules in their intermediate forms called transition states.

sp2606 [1]
It depends on the DNA that is compared to another species to decide if the species are related or not. Like the human and the rhesus monkey they are very related because all of the genetic codes have the same DNA except for one.
