Staph, as well as other pathogens, may change genetically by means of plasmids. Plasmids are DNA molecules which carries a rich diversity of genes that benefit the host cell. In this specific case, the host cell is the Staph bacteium. Among other things, plasmids carry antibiotic resistance genes. 

<span>To illustrate how an ordinary Staph aureus bacterium can evolve into a methicillin-resistant bacterium, let's use the patient who doesn't finish an antibiotic prescription of penicillin. The Staph is weakened but not killed. Bacterial plasmids work quickly to produce genes that make the bacteria resistant to the drug. These parent bacteria replicate and pass on the plasmids, along with the DNA they contain, to the "daughter" cells. Voila! Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus! With the new DNA in place, each subsequent generation of Staph will also be resistant. But do not think for one moment that MRSA is otherwise somehow different from Staphylococcus aureus. MRSA IS Staph. Staph with an added feature. </span>

Which is a true statement about the Federalists? They feared that Congress would become too powerful. They believed in a system
aleksandr82 [10.1K]
The true statement would be"They believed in a system of checks and balances."

The Federalists wanted a strong, central government, so the first option would be incorrect. Also, they didn't fear the presidency would become too powerful, making the third option incorrect. The last option is incorrect because the Federalists supported the ratification of Constitution as they noticed the weaknesses of the Articles.

Hope this helps! :)

5. The section "The Holocaust" provides context for which line in the opening<br> section?
Lubov Fominskaja [6]

Hello. You have not indicated which text the question refers to. This makes it impossible for the question to be answered efficiently and satisfactorily.

However, a section called "The Holocaust" should provide context for a line that refers to the cruelty that the Nazis inflicted on Jews, Poles, Sigans, prisoners of war and other people who were persecuted and subjugated by Nazis, especially Jews who were almost exterminated during the holocaust.

In this case, to find the answer to your question, you need to read the opening text and find the section that points to these elements.
