Biology
1 answer:
Ulleksa [173]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

The correct answer is c. detergent is used to break apart plant cells to extract DNA.

Explanation:

Here we are talking about DNA isolation in E.coli and detergent is used to break apart the bacterial cell membrane by destabilizing the cell membrane. Detergent disintegrates the proteins present in the cell membrane which causes the rupture of membrane releasing the cell extract outside the cell.  

Detergent is not able to break plant cell because it is made up of cellulose and require blending or mashing. Detergent can only be used to disintegrate the cell membrane because only cell membranes contain lipids and proteins.

Hence, the correct answer is c.  detergent is used to break apart plant cells to extract DNA.

How is crude oil brought to the surface
natta225 [31]
In some places, especially some new wells that have just been drilled,
the oil is under pressure, and it brings itself to the surface as soon as
you drill a 'pipe' for it to rise through.

In most oil wells, there's a pump bobbing up and down day and night,
pumping the oil up out of the well.

When the well is so old that even a pump isn't very effective, water is
often forced down the well under pressure, and the water forces the
oil back up through the pipe.
