Answer:

d. Tensional stress is a correct answer.

Explanation:

The lithosphere is the outer layer of the Earth due to tensional stress it gets fractured.

Tensional stress cause strain on the lithospheric material, which results in the fractures of the rocks in the lithosphere.

Tensional stress dominates the interaction between the plates and pulls them apart, due to this crust collide and the plates move in the opposite direction and it causes a fracture in the lithosphere.

Thus Tensional stress causes fractures in the lithosphere.

The cells have nuclei that vary in size and shape, termed pleomorphism.

Pleomorphism is usually defined in biology as the occurrence of multiple structural forms during the life cycle of an organism. In anaplasia, it represents multiple structural forms of nuclei.

Assume that one of the disinfectant/antiseptics tested using the disc method had a clear zone of inhibition and to your surprise
o-na [289]

The presence of the minute growth near the disc signifies that the bacterial innoculum contains mutant microorganisms that are able to grow in the presence of toxic substances.

<h3>What are zones of inhibition?</h3>

The sensitivity testing in a microbiology laboratory is done to determine the effect of antibiotics on various bacteria organisms

The zone of inhibition when a disk method is used signifies the area of media where bacteria are unable to grow, due to presence of a drug that impedes their growth.

If there are presence of minute growth near the disc, it means that the bacterial innoculum contains mutant microorganisms that are able to grow in the presence of toxic substances such as disinfectants.

If these mutant bacteria organisms are not cleared by the disk method, it means that they cannot be killed by the disinfectant/antiseptics that is being tested.
