Answer:
Explanation:
Biological membranes have three primary functions: (1) they keep toxic substances out of the cell; (2) they contain receptors and channels that allow specific molecules, such as ions, nutrients, wastes, and metabolic products, that mediate cellular and extracellular activities to pass between organelles and between the
<h2>Answer with Explanation </h2>
The DNA stands for deoxyribonucleic acid and mRNA stands for messenger ribonucleic acid. The pyrimidine base of DNA is thymine while the mRNA base is uracil. DNA is present inside the nucleus of the cell while mRNA exists in the cytoplasm after the diffusion process. It is double helix strand while the mRNA is single-stranded structure. DNA contains the information of protein-encoding while the mRNA contains the information of cell enabling the synthesis of protein.
1) The cell membrane surrounds the cytoplasm and prevents it from spreading out of the cell
2) Albumin which is a protein transport free fatty acids, which result from lipid digestion, in the blood stream by binding to it
3) The nucleus contains the chromosomes which carry the DNA on them
True. If you make a punnet square you get the traits which come from both parents.
Answer:
1. use of the wrong antibiotic
2. use of insufficient concentration of the right antibiotic
Explanation:
MRSA means Methicillin-resistant staphylococcus aureus
VRSA means Vancomycin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus
These are resistant forms of the bacteria <em>Staphylococcus aureus</em> to the antibiotics mentioned.
Bacterial resistance to antibiotics occurs when bacteria develop mechanisms that protect them against the effects of previously effective antibiotics.
Misguided and inappropriate use of antibiotics results in resistance, and they mainly occur as a result of two activities:
1. Use of wrong antibiotics: antibiotics are chosen using a microbiological technique called 'sensitivity testing', to determine which antibiotic is effective against a bacterium. However, when antibiotics are taken without proper sensitivity testing, the bacteria develop resistance against such antibiotics.
2. Use of inadequate concentration of the right antibiotic: This involves using less than the minimum inhibitory of minimum bactericidal concentration of an antibiotic against a bacteria. In this case, the organism has ample time to evolve in the presence of the antibiotic, hence the occurrence of resistance.
