kotegsom [21]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

The correct answer is a. "exon; intron".

Explanation:

According to the article "Distributions of exons and introns in the human genome" published in the scientific journal "In silico biology", an average human gene have 8.8 exons and 7.8 introns. Regardless of having similar proportions, human exons and introns differ in their lenght. An average exon's length is about 170 bp, when the average intron's length is 5419 bp. Therefore, most of the genetic material is comprised of introns (90%), while only a small part is comprised of exons (10%).

Consider a culture medium on which only gram- positive organisms such as Staphylococcus aureus colonies can grow due to an eleva
Anon25 [30]

Answer: It is a selective and differential medium.

Explanation: Selective medium is used to select the growth of certain bacteria whilst inhibiting the growth of another by preparing a medium with ingredients that will only select a specific growth of intended microbe. When closely related bacteria had been selected, they can further be differentiated by the way they utilize the medium. In this case staphylococcus aureus was first selected using sodium chloride with which only this bacteria can tolerate i.e halophilic (strives in salty environment). It was also further differentiated by its ability to ferment sugars changing the colour of the pH indicator chemical.

Which do you prefer to use organic fertilizer or inorganic fertilizer explain​
aev [14]

Answer:

Organic fertilizers continue to improve the soil long after the plants have taken the nutrients they need. Therefore, the longer your soil is fed with organic fertilizers, the better its composition and texture. So, while inorganic fertilizer is cheaper in the short term, it adds less to the soil in the long term.
