This is the day to day problem of a medical microbiology laboratory: the "tube containing a liquid nutrient medium" in the real world could, for example, represent blood culture bottles (aerobic or anaerobic). The basic process is as follows: a loop is first flamed to ensure sterility and then used to transfer a small portion of bacterial-laden liquid media to the agar medium by streaking it across the surface of a sterile petri dish. The dish is then covered, inverted, and placed in an appropriate incubator. When colonies begin to form on the surface of the agar plate, individual colonies can be taken up using the sterile loop for analysis or further propagation. The assumption is that a single colony represents growth from a single bacterium.

Can Hippodamia convergens and Hippodamia variegata can mate and produce fertile offspring? Explain your answer.
borishaifa [10]

Hippodamia convergens and Hippodamia variegata can mate but cannot produce fertile offspring because the number of chromosomes can make the development of the embryo unfeasible.

<h3>What are fertile hybrids?</h3>

The crossing between plants or animals of similar species can generate beings that, despite being hybrids, are fertile, even though in the initial phase of cell multiplication some chromosomes do not find the respective pair.

<h3>Why don't hybrids reproduce?</h3>

These differences in the number of chromosomes can make the development of the embryo unfeasible, as the alignment of equivalent chromosomes from the female and the male is necessary for the division of the fertilized cell to occur. When this alignment does not occur, the cell does not reproduce and dies.

With this information, we can conclude that Hybrid animals are beings from genetic crosses between different species, but of the same genus, that is, when two different animals cross and a new animal appears, usually sterile, due to their incompatible genes: the hybrid animal.

What hormone is responsible for stimulating the breakdown of liver glycogen and its release as glucose?
Lostsunrise [7]
The hormones that stimulate the breakdown of liver glycogen are epinephrine and glucagon. Epinephrine is the one that triggers the glycogen breakdown inside the muscle and also inside the liver. However, the liver is the one that is more active or responsive to the hormone called glucagon than the muscles. A glucagon is a hormone which is a polypeptide hidden by the cells of our pancreas called α cells whenever our blood-sugar is low. This hormone indicates the state of starving.
