Answer:

for differentiation

Explanation:

By gram staining, we can determine about gram-positive and gram-negative bacteria. If bacteria are Gram-positive then for further catalase test perform. If bacteria give catalase-positive then that's mean this bacteria is Staphylococcus. If bacteria give catalase-negative result then that's mean this bacteria is streptococcus.

The bacteria that are catalase-positive for their further identification coagulase test perform if bacteria is coagulase-positive that's mean it is staphylococcus aureus and if it is coagulase-negative that's mean that maybe differentiation saprophyticus or other species.

In a dihybrid cross involving two autosomal traits on different chromosomes in which the parents are purebred for the opposite f
Simora [160]

Answer:

The question lacks options, the options are:

A) 1 out of 16

B) 3 out of 16

C) 6 out of 16

D) 9 out of 16

The answer is 1 out of 16

Explanation:

This is a DIHYBRID cross because it involves two different genes coding for distinct traits. One of the traits will be dominant while the other recessive. Hence, parents that are purebred for opposite forms of the trait means that one parent is homozygous dominant while the other is homozygous recessive. When these two parents cross, they produce F1 offsprings that all possess the dominant trait but heterozygous/hybrids.

When these hybrids are self-crossed, they produce four different combinations of gametes which when crossed using a punnet square will result in F2 offsprings with a 9:3:3:1 phenotypic ratio according to Mendel's observation.

9 represents offsprings that are dominant for both traits

The two 3's represents offsprings that are recessive for one trait and dominant for the other respectively.

1 represents offsprings that are homozygous recessive for both traits.

Hence, 1 out of 16 offsprings will be homozygous recessive for both traits.

What technology are scientists using to search for other planets? How are they using this technology to identify other planets?
Anni [7]

They use radiometry and pyrometry

NASA uses the Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satelite (TESS) telescope that employes this technology

This telescope measures the brightness/luminosity of stars. When this brightness drops regularly, every more or less in the same number of years, then there is the likelihood of a planet orbiting the star. The dip in brightness of the star is directly proportional to the size of the planet and the distance between the star and the orbiting planet.
