MRSA has emerged as a serious infectious disease, with the first case of methicillin-resistant S. aureus being detected in 1961.

Why are medical professionals so concerned when antibiotics exist that can kill MRSA?
MRSA can transfer methicillin-resistance to other bacteria.
Patients are not treated with correct antibiotics rapidly enough to prevent serious illness.
MRSA could acquire additional antibiotic resistance genes from other bacteria to become a "super bug."
All of the above.

Answer:

All of the options are true for a MRSA infection.

Explanation:

<em>Staphylococcus aureus</em> is one of the most frequent pathogens causing hospital and community infections. <em>S. aureus</em> can become very easy methicillin resistant (called MRSA isolates) and others beta-lactam antibiotics (are the ones widely used to treat infections) and usually can be resistant to other class of antibiotics, become a  very strong bacteria making treatment options very limited. MRSA isolates can rapidly transfer the methicillin resistance to other species of S<em>taphylococcus</em> and some other bacteria. Also <em>S. aureus</em> can acquire other antibiotic resistant genes making a deadly bacterium for its strong resistance. It is in search how the bacterium acquire this antibiotics resistance ( and other virulence factors genes) and the mechanism involve to develop new drugs to treat  MRSA infections  with the hope that can´t develop resistance to this new drugs.

Explanation:

Meiosis makes genetic variety possible. It makes sperm & egg cells called gametes. Each gamete has 23 chromosomes. To make a diploid cell two gametes (sperm & cell) come together.

During prophase 1 the chromosomes pair up with their homologous pairs so they can transfer their genetic information and exchange it between each other. It makes recombinant chromosomes that influence the genetic diversity between the same people.

Now they are in metaphase 1, the chromosomes are in pairs in the middle of the cell. In anaphase 1, the chromosomes are pulled away by the spindle fibers. Then in telophase 1, there are two formed nuclei. Cytokinesis 1 then splits the cytoplasm.

Now they are in meiosis 2. During prophase 2, there are chromosomes and the spindles are starting to form again without crossing over like in prophase 1. In metaphase 2, chromosomes are going to line up in the middle in both cells unlike during metaphase 1 where the chromosomes were only in pairs.  In anaphase 2, only the chromatids are being pulled away by the spindle fibers. Next in telophase 2 the nuclei reform and the 2 cells are each going to divide into 4 cells. Finally, cytokinesis completely splits the cytoplasm.

Keeping in mind that each sex only produces one type of gamete cell (sperm or eggs), and of the independent assortment and crossing over of chromosomes, the end result will be diversity.
