edia, similar to the control plate with no disk. What does this result imply? A. The compound in the disk is so toxic that it inhibits almost all growth on the plate.B. The few colonies that grew are resistant to the compound.C. The few colonies that grew contain reversion mutations that allow them to grow on media without histidine.D.

Answer:

The correct answer is option D.

Explanation:

In the given case, a similar amount of colonies is witnessed in both control as well as the test plate. This concludes that it does not influence the organism, thus, there was no enhancement in the rate of reversion, that is, the number of colonies in the test plate does not get decrease. Thus, the compound in the disc is not mutagenic as there was no increase in the reversion rate.

Three separate longitudinal ribbons of smooth muscle on the outer surfaces of the colon are known as __________.
chubhunter [2.5K]

Answer:

he Taeniae coil

Explanation:

The mesocolic,free and omental taeniae are collectively known as TAENIAE.

They are the 3 ribbon of smooth muscle of the ascending,transverse, descending and the sigmoid  colon. Anatomically their longitudinal   contractions give the <u>natural</u> bulges(HAUSTRAL) in the colon.

The Haustral helps in translocation of chyme to the next haustral, and  aiding the mixing of chyme for water absorption in the colon,  

The coil of these  smooth muscles is under the parasympathetic nervous system through Sacral nerve (of the spinal cord)  innervation.

Thus, the correct answer is option C. Haploid spores.
