Complete Question:

Plants are susceptible to bacterial infections, which can damage their structure or even kill them. Which of the following would be the best antibiotic to treat a plant that is infected with bacteria?

A) a drug that interferes with mitochondria function

B) a drug that disrupts cell wall structure and function

C) a drug that destroys the central vacuole

D) a drug that blocks gene expression in circular chromosomes

Answer: Option D (a drug that blocks gene expression in circular chromosomes.

Explanation: Circular chromosomes are chromosomes found in prokaryotes (including bacteria). Gene expression process in the cell is powered by the barterium’s circular chromosomes.

However, gene expression refers to process in which the information present in the gene (DNA and RNA) are used to produce proteins for specific cell functions. Part of the functions enables the cell to respond to change in it’s fluctuating environment. Which in turn, enable the inner environment fairly stable.

Some proteins are synthesized to regulate the proper functioning of other organelles of the cell including the cell wall, vacuole and etc.

Thus, introduction of antibiotics that disrupts the gene expression in the circular chromosomes will be the best way to eliminate the bacteria affecting the plants. Since, if there's no gene expression in action, no protein is produced for proper organelles and the whole cell functioning. Hence, the bacteria are rendered dead.

Agonist/antagonist
 Agonist are drugs that bind and activate a receptor with effecting the response.If the effect results in maximum response it is considered as full agonist. However if the drug that binds to the receptor results only into partial efficacy in relation to the full activation of the receptor, this is considered as partial agonist.

Antagonist are drugs that blocks a biologic response of a hormone or another drug. They usually have affinity to the receptors but has no efficacy. This drug will just inhibit the activation of the receptors by the aganist.

What causes over growth in humans
prohojiy [21]

Does your child seem much shorter - or much taller - than other kids his or her age? It could be normal. Some children may be small for their age but still be developing normally. Some children are short or tall because their parents are.

But some children have growth disorders. Growth disorders are problems that prevent children from developing normal height, weight, sexual maturity or other features.

Very slow or very fast growth can sometimes signal a gland problem or disease.

The pituitary gland makes growth hormone, which stimulates the growth of bone and other tissues. Children who have too little of it may be very short. Treatment with growth hormone can stimulate growth.

People can also have too much growth hormone. Usually the cause is a pituitary gland tumor, which is not cancer. Too much growth hormone can cause gigantism in children, where their bones and their body grow too much. In adults, it can cause acromegaly, which makes the hands, feet and face larger than normal. Possible treatments include surgery to remove the tumor, medicines, and radiation therapy.

4) The simplest type of response is a direct one-to-one stimulus-response reaction. A change in the environment is the stimulus; the reaction of the organism to it is the response. In single-celled organisms, the response is the result of a property of the cell fluid called irritability.

5) During meiosis, the cells needed for sexual reproduction divide to produce new cells called gametes. Gametes contain half as many chromosomes as the other cells in the organism, and each gamete is genetically unique because the DNA of the parent cell is shuffled before the cell divides.

6)Producers can make their own food by capturing the sun's energy, but consumers and decomposes can't. Consumers need to eat other organisms to obtain energy. Decomposes are like the recycles of nature. They obtain energy for their own needs while returning simple molecules to the environment.

7)The birds are growing up into a larger bird.

8) Cells manage a wide range of functions in their tiny package growing, moving, housekeeping, and so on and most of those functions require energy. But how do cells get this energy in the first place? And how do they use it in the most efficient manner possible?

9)Aside from the fact that fish,and trees can be aged in similar ways (by counting annual growth rings), new research shows that all three also respond to climate change in similar ways.


10)No we will not be able to survive cause there is no food or water and it is only oxygen of course you will be able to breathe but not eat or drink.
