Within a narrow range of temperatures, S. marcescens produces a red pigment called prodigiosin. Although the ultimate purpose of

the pigment is a mystery, it is known that at least 10 enzymes are required for its production. If one of these enzymes is rendered nonfunctional, how would you expect the appearance of the bacteria to change?

Answer:

Either the color will disappear or the brightness of the color will reduce as compared to the brightness in normal case.  

Explanation:

Non diffusible red pigment known as prodigiosin is a characteristics of S. Marcescens. Since, the red pigment is dependent on least 10 enzymes, it is clear that the pH and temperature range must be adequate for these enzymes to be functional. The optimum condition for pigment formation is 30 degree temperature and alkaline medium.

If any of the 10 enzymes become non-functional, the chances of attaining normal bright red color are not possible. Either the color will disappear or the brightness of the color will reduce as compared to the brightness in normal case.

One of the four fundamental interactions in nature is? Electromagnetism Gravity Strong interaction All of the above
OleMash [197]

Answer:

The correct answer is  All of the above. In nature there are four forces, (also called interactions or fields in Physics) that are responsible for all phenomena in the universe: the gravitational force or interaction, the strong interaction, the electromagnetic and the weak nuclear.

Explanation:

The fundamental interactions or forces that describe all the interactions between the constituents of matter are each of the interactions that matter can undergo and that cannot be decomposed into more basic interactions. There are four basic forces that describe all interactions: Gravitational, that is responsible for the interaction between particles with mass and, by extension, for the configuration on a macroscopic scale of the Universe and its stability. Electromagnetic, is responsible for the interaction between electrically charged particles and, by extension, for all Chemical reactions, Weak is responsible for the disintegration of certain unstable particles; that is, of those processes in which some particles decompose (decay) into lighter ones and Strong interaction is the most complicated interaction to describe due to its different behaviors at different action distances; by means of which a global vision of the to physics without breaking it down.

Once collected, lymph ultimately drains into __________.
Natasha2012 [34]
<span>Once collected, lymph ultimately drains into venous circulation.
<u />Lymph goes from terminal lymphatic ducts into venous circulation through the subclavian veins.
Lymph is not filtered or detoxicated yet at this point, and it doesn't go to arterial circulation because that would just distribute it all over the body, instead of just the heart.
