Answer:

c. smear preparation

a. fixation

b. application of staining dyes

Explanation:

In the bacterial specimen preparation and staining order, the first step would be Smear preparation in which the smear of bacteria is formed on the slide.

Then the bacterial smear is heat-fixed so that the smear does not get washed off during the washing process in the staining procedure. After heat fixing the bacterial smear, the dyes are applied to the bacterial smear to stain the bacterial cells.  

Therefore the correct order is-

c. smear preparation

a. fixation

b. application of staining dyes

The salt concentration in a cell's cytoplasm is 0.9%. The cell is placed in a 10% salt solution. Which term best describes the 1
fenix001 [56]

The term that best describes the 10% salt solution relative to the cytoplasm of the cell is ' Hypertonic'

Explanation:

When the concentration of two solutionare compared they can be described as hypertonic, hypotonic or isotonic with relation to one another.

When two solutions have same concentration and osmotic pressure they are said to be isotonic solutions.

The solution which has higher molecular concentration and higher osmotic pressure than the other solution is called hypertonic solution.

The solution which has lower molecular concentration and lower osmotic pressure with respect to other solution is called hypotonic solution.

Here the solution of salt has a higher concentration than cell sap so it is a hypertonic.

What is the function of lipoprotein lipase?
scZoUnD [109]

Answer:

Hydrolysis of triglycerides in lipoproteins

Explanation:

Lipoprotein lipase is a water-soluble enzyme which includes pancreatic lipase, hepatic lipase, and endothelial lipase.  

Enzymes involved in triacylglycerol digestion are lipases and they catalyze the partial hydrolysis of triglycerides into a mixture of free fatty acids and acylglycerols. After digestion of lipids, monoglycerides and fatty acids associate with bile salts and phopholipids to form micelles. Micelles are structures that are necessary for the transport the poorly soluble monoglycerides and fatty acids to the surface of the enterocyte. But, micelles cannot be absorbed by epithelial cell, only freely dissolved monoglycerides and fatty acids can.

how does fossil evidence of forests and freshwater organisms in Antarctica show that the climate there was warmer in the past
noname [10]
The fossil record of Antarctica shows the presence of tropical plants, such as one particular species related to the present day breadfruit. Most plants cannot survive in prolonged temperatures of less than 6 degrees Celsius. Antarctica is freezing all year round and could only have supported tropical and sub tropical plants if it was once much closer to the equator.
The presence of fresh water species also suggest that the continent was closer to the equator. Antarctica is frozen solid with a thick ice sheet.....rivers would be frozen solid all year round or would be limited to water movement under glaciers that melt as a result of pressure and friction. This environment is not suitable to support large fresh water organisms.

T cell-target cell interactions induce specialized tc cells to produce ________ that kill virus-infected target cells.
Doss [256]

The answer is granzymes. are serine proteases which trigger the apoptotic cascade in target cells. Apoptotic enzymes activated by granzymes can also destroy viruses or other cytoplasmic pathogens in the target cells so that the pathogens cannot infect nearby cells. Dead target cells are rapidly ingested by macrophages. The Tc cells also produce perforin pores to  allow granzymes to enter the target cell.
