Answer:
The correct answer is "the S layer may play a role in protecting cells from viruses and predatory bacteria found in nature but not in laboratory cultures".
Explanation:
The S-layer (surface layer) is a part of the cell's envelope comprised of of identical proteins or glycoproteins that could be found in archaes and some bacterias in nature. The function of the S-layer is unknown, however the fact that is only seen in nature suggest that it may play a role in protecting cells from viruses and predatory bacteria found in nature but not in laboratory cultures. It is likely that archaes and bacteria synthesize the S-layer when they recognize viruses and predatory bacteria in nature, the S-layer is not synthesized in laboratory cultures because these pathogens are not present.
Contacting a local hospital and asking them the percentage of the population that has blood type O will generate different results.
The factors that we have to consider why there is differing results are:
1) location of the hospital
2) nationality of their patients
3) number of their patients
I am assuming that the population that question is referring to is the number of patients in the local hospital. The bigger the population, the smaller the effect a unit has on the whole and vice versa.
I read an article that states that 37% of the U.S. population has O+ blood type. These people are usually of Hispanic descent or some Asian descent. So, if a hospital is in a locality that has a majority of Hispanic or Asian patients, its percentage will be higher than a hospital that is located in a Caucasian-populated area.
Aside from Type O+ (most common), blood types also include: O-, A+, A-, B+, B-, AB+, and AB- (rarest blood type)
Answer:
These homologous structure indicates a common ancestry
Explanation:
When 4 organisms show homologous structures, they indicates they belongs to a common ancestor from where the changes takes place in them.
The organs which are structurally dissimilar but functionally same are called as homologous organism.
Hippocrates was a Greek physician, he is well known for the discovery of the medicines, which were based on the scientific observation. He is also known as virtual originator of the etiology and the pathology.
