A student properly flames her loop but then forgets to let it cool. Instead, she immediately inserts the hot loop into her broth

culture. What is the most important issue associated with this mistake?
Biology
1 answer:

7 0

Answer:

Aerosols may be created when the hot loop touches the culture.

Explanation:

The insertion of the hot loop, will make the broth and the bacteria to boil briefly, and this will create aerosols containing bacteria.

This is very dangerous especially to the students , because the aerosols created is air borne and can be inhaled by the student and enter the respiratory tract, or settle on his/her skin.

Note that, when a loop produce a hissing sound when placed in a broth culture means that, it has not cooled sufficiently or as expected.

The genome size of E.coli is approximately 5X106 bp and can be replicated in 30 minutes. The human genome size is 3X109 bp, abou
Oksana_A [137]

Answer:

Human genome has various replicons.

Explanation:

A replicon which is a unit of DNA, has potential to get replicated independently. So, the DNA replication occurs simultaneously at various replicons as a result of which human genome takes much less time than estimated to get replicated .

In contrast to this, prokaryotes like E.coli have only one origin of replication and thus one replicon due to which replication is restricted to once per cell cycle.

Place all eight of these steps of the insulin signaling pathway in the correct order. The abbreviation PIP 2 is used for phospha
DedPeter [7]

Answer:

The correct insulin pathway is described as under:

2. Binding of insulin to the alpha subunit of the insulin receptor

8. Activation of insulin receptor tyrosine kinase

3. Phosphorylation of IRS proteins

6. Phosphorylation of phosphinositide 3-kinase (PI-3K)

4. Conversion of PIP2 to PIP3

7. Activation of PIP3-dependent protein kinase B (PDK1)

5. Glut4 receptors transported to the cell membrane

Explanation:

The insulin signaling pathway is described as under:

RTK (receptor tyrosine kinases) which is a receptor for insulin is an extracellular receptor but in contrast to other cell surface receptors it is catalytic in nature. In the absence of insulin (ligand), it is monomeric but as soon as it gets activated (activation occurs upon ligand binding), it undergo dimerization. It leads to auto-phosphorylation in it's tyrosine residue which subsequently leads to phosphorylation of tyrosine residue of other receptors. Such hyper-phosphorylated receptor have high affinity with enzyme/molecule like IRS protein which have SH2 domain . IRS down stream activates phosphinositide 3-kinase (PI-3K). This enzyme converts component of animal cell membrane PIP2 into PIP3. PIP3 also remains membrane bound but it has the potential to phosphorylate another enzyme named as PIP3-dependent protein kinase B (PDK1). Further, PDK1 leads to the activation of Akt or PK-B. Akt is a serine-threonine kinase which ultimately leads to the recruitment of Glut4 receptors on cell membrane for uptake of more and more glucose into the cell.

Note: Apart from this Akt also phosphorylates another protein named as FOXO which ultimately causes cell growth, Akt can also phosphorylate BAD protein so as to restrict cell apoptosis or we can say it leads to cell survival, Akt also leads to translation in a cell with the help of mTOR raptor etc.

Which cross could produce a child with blood type A?
Strike441 [17]

Answer:

d. Ao x oo

Explanation:

The other crosses with A would all result in complete dominance because the alleles (other than A) from the other parent are dominant. Because option D. crosses a h o m o zygous parent with a recessive trait, the cross could produce a child with blood type A.
