Answer:

Cytokinesis

Explanation:

All living cells undergo division, it is the method employed in duplicating themselves. The division of cells involves two major processes viz; karyokinesis and cytokinesis.

Karyokinensis involves the division of the genetic material (DNA) in the nucleus. The chromosomes are initially separated into opposite poles/ends inside the cell. After which the cytoplasm of the whole cell then separates resulting in two daughter cells each having its own genetic material. This process is called CYTOKINESIS.

Although CYTOKINESIS occurs in all eukarotes and prokaryotes, the way it occurs in the eukaryotic plant and animal cells differ in the sense that, in animals, it occurs with the formation of a cleavage furrow as a result of pinching inward of the cell membrane until the two daughter cells form while in plants, a cell plate is formed at the cell's centre and a new membrabe and cell wall is formed around each cell plate.

Answer:

e. staphylococcal enterotoxin

Explanation:

Staphylococcal enterotoxin is a toxin that is produced by the bacteria Staphylococcus aureus. It is a toxin found inside the gastrointestinal tracts of the human body which is why it is called an enterotoxin and it results in food poisoning when consumed by humans.

Staphylococcal enterotoxin is proteinous in nature and it can be found on dairy products such as milk or cheeses that have been contaminated by Staphylococcus aureus.

After consumption of the contaminated milk or cheeses, the person begins to experience symptoms of nausea, diarrhea as well as vomiting.

Staphylococcal enterotoxin is a very heat stable toxin which means even though you heat up a food contaminated with this toxin, the bacteria may die by the toxins would still remain in the food.

The best way to avoid food poisoning by Staphylococcal enterotoxin is to avoid eating contaminated foods.
