Hello, this question is incomplete. The complete question would be:

"A researcher claims that different metabolic pathways allow bacteria to use different molecules as sources of matter and energy. Which of the following statements best helps justify the researcher’s claim by providing a relevant example? a.Rhizobia bacteria form close associations with the roots of bean plants. b. E. coli bacteria reproduce in liquid media containing either glucose or galactose. c.The antibiotic rifampicin inhibits the growth of some bacterial strains but not of others. d. Some viruses that infect bacteria reproduce by either the lysogenic cycle or the lytic cycle. "

Answer:

b. E. coli bacteria reproduce in liquid media containing either glucose or galactose.

Explanation:

Bacterial metabolism depends on carbon sources to stay nourished. Due to this characteristic, bacteria can be classified as autotrophic and heterotrophic. Among the nutrient classes, bacterial metabolism can remain active with macronutrient sources (carbon, sulfur, hydrogen, oxygen, nitrogen and phosphorus) or micronutrients (zinc, calcium, sodium, iron, manganese, potassium, cobalt, chlorine, etc).

Bacteria need a nutritious environment to survive, but their different metabolic pathways allow bacteria to use different molecules as sources of matter and energy.

Understanding this is facilitated by the analysis of the metabolism of bacteria that, like Escherichia coli, are able to synthesize all the components required for their replication from glucose or galactose and minerals alone.

Marysya12 [62]

Answer: Phenotypic ratio=2:2; Genotypic ratio= 2:2.

Explanation: Test cross is the breeding of an individual with Phenotypically recessive individuals.

Heterozygous wire-haired = Ww

Recessive trait= ww

Test crossing result of offspring= Ww Ww ww ww

Genotypic ratio (genetic composition) = 2:2

Phenotypic ratio= 2:2

2 offsprings are wire-haired and 2 Offspring are smooth-haired.

erica [24]

Answer:

D. Allosteric activator

Explanation:

In an enzyme, the allosteric site is a site/motif different from the active site, (i.e., the site with catalytic activity) which is able to interact with regulatory effector molecules in order to activate or inhibit enzymatic activity by influencing the tridimensional (3D) structure of the enzyme. An allosteric activator is an effector molecule with the ability to bind to a specific enzyme at a different site than the active site, thereby modifying the shape of the enzyme and increasing the affinity of this enzyme for its substrate. Moreover, Adenosine monophosphate (AMP) is a nucleotide composed of a phosphate group, a sugar ribose, and an Adenine (A) base. This effector molecule (AMP) has shown to allosterically stimulate diverse enzymes in physiological conditions (e.g., AMP-activated protein kinase).
