Answer:

Obtain specimen before antibiotics are given.

Explanation:

Antibiotics may be defined as the chemicals given to kill or restrict the growth of the bacterial infection. The antibiotics are not available for virus as they can change their DNA.

The sensitivity results can be accurate if the nurse is able to ensure the successful culture of the antibiotics. Throat culture specimen is taken from the pharyngeal area. The aseptic technique can be used by the nurse for obtaining the blood and urine specimen.

Thus, the answer is obtain specimen before antibiotics are given.

Which of the following features are shared and best explains the close phylogenetic relationship between a starfish and a shark?
Yuki888 [10]
It is the developement of deuterostomes because the animals that are deuterostomes are including those of the phyla Echinodermata (e.g., starfish, sea urchins), Chordata (e.g., sea squirts, lancelets, and vertebrates), Chaetognatha (e.g., arrowworms), and Brachiopoda (e.g., lamp shells). This includes vertebrates, so yes that’s how sharks and starfish are related.

The symbiotic relationship after some time becomes permanent and both the organism become dependent on each other that both are unable to survive without each other.

In the given question, the microbes growing in the digestive system helps us digest food as they use the complex component of food which is not easily digested by the system, therefore, the microbes gets the nutrients and the system is able to digest the complex biomolecules.

irakobra [83]

Answer:

Centromeric DNA

Explanation:

Genes are responsible for formation of proteins. A codon produces a single amino acid and it comprises of three base pairs. The whole DNA of organism does not contribute to encode protein. There are sequences in DNA that does not contribute in coding known as non-coding DNA and perform different functions. These may include the O O O 5-end, DNA coding for a signal sequence, noncoding intron and O promoter sequence .

The centromere is the part of DNA that links the sister chromatids. The centromere is not converted to mRNA or proteins.  It is also not involved in regulation of genes. So it did not contribute to 864 bp found in the yfg gene.
