Which of the following describes why a drug may appear effective against a pathogen in clinical susceptibility tests but ineffec

tive in a real-life context? To be marked correct, you'll need to select all applicable statements, as there may be more than one correct answer.
1. Compared to controlled susceptibility tests, the drug may be less active in a real-life context either due to drug inactivation by body processes or as a result of drug solubility issues.
2. Drug susceptibility tests are typically performed at room temperature (much cooler than human body temperature).
3. In clinical susceptibility tests, drug concentration is well controlled compared to a real-life context.
4. Unlike in controlled clinical susceptibility tests, the number of bacteria varies between tissue samples.

Answer:

1. and 4.

Explanation:

For #1: Outside of a lab, different people's bodies may respond differently to the drug due to a one or many factors such as those listed in the response.

For #4: Pathogen mutations as well as bacterial growth and spread may render the drug incapable of curing the pathogen due to there simply being more bacteria in one person than the drug can handle.

Rapid digestion of a cell by its own lysosomes is called
Xelga [282]

When the lysosomes of a cell rapidly digest the cell itself, this process is known as autolysis. This self digestion process helps in the decomposition of the dead cells. The cell is dismantled by its own lysosomes, which digests the remains of the dead cell. It is an essential process in the life cycle of a cell. This self digestion of the cells is extremely important for the new cells to grow.

Hence, the correct answer is 'autolysis'.

The electrochemical gradient in a chloroplast can have a concentration of protons 1000 times greater on one side of a thylakoid
Lelechka [254]
The statement above is TRUE.
The electrochemical gradient in the chloroplast is a gradient of electrochemical potential of ions which move across the membrane of the chloroplast during the photosynthesis process. The proton gradient across the thylakoid membrane drives the ATP synthesis during photosynthesis.
