Enterobacter, Klebsiella, and Escherichia coli.

Coliform bacteria is known to be a gram negative bacteria with rod-shaped and can fermantlactose with the production of acid and gas when incubated at 35-370C. Thus, IMViC are normally used in the identification of genera of Enterobacteriaceae which is responsible for intestinal infections. However, IMVic test will indicate the presence of Enterobacter, Klebsiella, and Escherichia coli.

Answer:

If the IMVic test detects the presence of E. coli it means that the water is contaminated with faecal coliforms.

Explanation:

The IMVic test is a test that can be used to discover contaminants in water. The water may be contaminated by fecal coliforms or substances from plants and soil. These substances are associated with the presence of some bacteria, which is why the IMCic test is so efficient.

The IMVic test is able to detect the presence of Klebsiella, Enterobacter and Escherichia coli bacteria. If after the application of the test, the presence of E. coli in the water is detected, it means that the water is contaminated with faecal coliforms. If the presence of Klebsiella or Enterobacter is detected it means that the water is contaminated with substances of plant origin or soil particles.

Novosadov [1.4K]
Curare will bind to the receptor but it doesn't cause the ion to flow inside. This will prevent the person from sent signal to the muscle. When the person trying to move the muscle, curare will also prevent acetylcholine to bind so there will be no muscle contractions. The symptoms would be paralyzed of muscle that uses ach receptor.

What would happen when an artificial K+ channel is inserted into an axon membrane at resting potential?Answer questions 1-4 by s
kap26 [50]

Answer:

<h2>K+ movement will be closed or blocked because the outside is more positive charged and K+ is a positive particle.</h2>

Explanation:

Resting potential of a neuron cell is a type of condition in which the neuron lives in rest that means there is no transmission of the impulse takes place. Such type of the condition occurs due to more negative charges inside the cell and more positive charges outside the cell. During this condition potassium ions are in higher condition inside the neuron and the concentration of sodium ions are high at outside of the neuron.

HOME › ASSIGNMENTS ► ASSIGNMENT -<br> Asexual versus Sexual Reproduction 3
nexus9112 [7]

The fusion of two parents' genetic material is understood as sexual reproduction while asexual reproduction yields genetically similar offspring to the same parent.

<u>Asexual Reproduction:</u>

This way all the prokaryotes and other eukaryotes produce offspring. There are a variety of different asexual reproductive practices. These comprises of binary, fragmentation, and budding fission.

  • The binary fission appears when a parent cell wants to split into 2 separate daughter cells of the same diameter. For an instance, protozoa reproduces in the same way.
  • Fragmentation happens when a parent entity divides into small parts or fragments, and each segment grows into a recent organism. Starfish, that way replicate.
  • Budding happens when a parent cell develops a bud close to a bubble. When growing and developing, the bud remains connected to the parent cell. This get detached from the parent cell when the bud is completely grown, and becomes a new entity. It is common in hydra and yeast.

<u>Sexual Reproduction:</u>

  • A reproductive process which comprises haploid female gamete fusion, i.e. egg cell and haploid male gamete i.e. sperm cell.
  • That implies they only include half the number of chromosomes contained in other species cells. A form of cell division named meiosis creates gametes.
  • These gametes are fused at fertilization which results in the production of a diploid zygote having the chromosome double of gametes.

Which disappears more rapidly from a population, a deleterious dominant allele or a deleterious recessive allele?
Allisa [31]

Answer:

Selection is a directional process that leads to an increase or a decrease in the frequency of genes or genotypes. Selection is the process that increases the frequencies of plant resistance alleles in natural ecosystems through coevolution, and it is the process that increases the frequencies of virulence alleles in agricultural ecosystems during boom and bust cycles.

Selection occurs in response to a specific environmental factor. It is a central topic of population and evolutionary biology. The consequence of natural selection on the genetic structure and evolution of organisms is complicated. Natural selection can decrease the genetic variation in populations of organisms by selecting for or against a specific gene or gene combination (leading to directional selection). It can increase the genetic variation in populations by selecting for or against several genes or gene combinations (leading to disruptive selection or balancing selection). Natural selection might lead to speciation through the accumulation of adaptive genetic differences among reproductively isolated populations. Selection can also prevent speciation by homogenizing the population genetic structure across all locations.

Selection in plant pathology is mainly considered in the framework of gene-for-gene coevolution. Plant pathologists often think in terms of Van der Plank and his concept of "stabilizing selection" that would operate against pathogen strains with unnecessary virulence. As we will see shortly, Van der Plank used the wrong term, as he was actually referring to directional selection against unneeded virulence alleles.
