Which of the two tests would likely produce more false negatives with a shorter incubation time?

Biology
1 answer:
Masteriza [31]3 years ago

Answer: A short incubation time runs the risk of a false negative on the VP test, since not enough time may have elapsed to produce an adequate amount of acetoin to give a positive result. The pH change associated with mixed acid fermentation occurs fairly quickly and is less likely to be affected by shorter incubation.

b) The VP test would benefit most from a longer incubation time because it takes a while for the 2,3-butanodiol to be produced.

Together, inhalation and exhalation are referred to as ________. together, inhalation and exhalation are referred to as ________
Gennadij [26K]
Together, inhalation and exhalation are referred to as breathing. Inhalation is the process of breathing where air moves into the lungs through the nose and the mouth. This causes an increase in the volume of air in the lungs, meaning the pressure will decrease, thus the air then moves to the lungs. Exhalation on the other hand is the flow of the breath out of an organism, for example in humans it is the movement of air from the lungs out of the airways, to the external environment during breathing.

Olin [163]

The correct answer is: C) the random and independent way in which each pair of homologous chromosomes lines upat the metaphase plate during meiosis I

Independent assortment is the second Mendel’s law which states that the alleles of two/more different genes are sorted into gametes independently.  

When homologous pairs line up during the metaphase at meiosis I they do that random. This means that formed gametes will get different combinations of "mom" and "dad" homologues and consequently, different alleles on those homologues.
