Answer:

c. The harmless bacteria had been transformed.  

Explanation:

Fredrick Griffith carried out the first experiment that showed bacteria can get DNA by transformation in 1928.

He used two different strains of the bacteria Streptococcus pneumoniae a)type-III-S or smooth strain-Covered by a protective polysaccharide capsule hence lethal

b) type II-R or rough strain-Lacked the polysaccharide hence non-lethal

In his experiment he observed heat killed Type-III-S strain was not able to kill the mice. However, when its remains was added with rough strain then the blend was able to kill the mice.

When he collected blood  from the dead mice it had live strains of both smooth and rough type.

He came to a conclusion that non-lethal type II-R strain was transformed into lethal type II-S strain by a "transforming principle"  that was supposed to be the part of dead III-S strain bacteria.

Atrazine is an herbicide that prevents plant growth by inhibiting photosynthesis. Atrazine works by binding to proteins in the e
Sauron [17]

It prevents the formation of ATP and NADPH, which are needed by the light-independent reactions to make sugars. Thus, the correct option is D.

The herbicide atrazine binds to the D1 protein and prevents plastoquinone from binding. By preventing plastoquinone from binding, the photosynthetic transport of electron is disrupted, putting the generation of ATP and NADPH in the chloroplast at risk.

 

<h3>What are herbicide?</h3>

Herbicides are chemicals that are used to control or manage unwanted vegetation. Herbicides are most commonly used in row-crop farming, where they are treated before or during planting to increase crop productivity while reducing other vegetation.

This results in the plant's inability to fix carbon dioxide and provide the nutrients it needs to survive. A halt in electron transmission causes oxidative stress and the generation of radicals, which leads to rapid cellular death.

What type of molecule speeds up chemical reactions in living things?
iren [92.7K]

The best answer is  B - Proteins.

Proteins make up enzymes, or to put it another way enzymes are made up of protein. It is enzymes that speed up the chemical reactions. Enzymes are organic catalysts, substances that speed up a (biochemical) reaction but do not take part in the reaction and remain unchanged at the end of the reaction.

In man, there are many enzymes. The majority of these are found in the digestive system where they greatly aid the process of food breakdown from complex molecules to simple molecules. Examples include salivary amylase found in saliva,  which begins the gradual breaking down of starch into glucose right from the moment food is placed in the mouth and mixed with saliva. Pepsin in the stomach breaks down protein.

Ryan hears a loud noise and quickly turns his eyes sideways in the direction of the sound. To accomplish this action he must use
maksim [4K]

Answer:

The correct answer is lateral rectus muscles.

Explanation:

To see what is happening in his side, or what originated the loud noise, Ryan has to use his lateral rectus muscle. Lateral rectus is one of the five extra ocular muscles that help in movement of the eye balls and help to see what is happening in and around us. It is mostly responsible for abduction, i.e. the movement of the eye balls away from the center line of the body. Defect in this muscle can result in sixth nerve palsy.
