Answer:

transformation

Explanation:

Transformation is one of the three methods of genetic recombinant in bacteria. The other two are transduction and conjugation. Transformation occurs when the bacterial cells take up the DNA and which in turn changes their phenotype.

Transformation requires that there should not be any cell to cell contact. In the experiments performed by Griffith, the heat-killed virulent S strains were mixed with live R strains. The R strain took the DNA of heat-killed S strains which in turn converted them into the virulent strains. Since this horizontal gene transfer did not include any cell-to-cell contact, he called the process transformation.

First question: When the population of lynx increases, the population of hares will decrease due to being over-hunted by more predators than usual. The hare is a source of food to the lynx, so with more lynx's...less hares... and less hares means either less food for the lynx and their population starts to die off...OR... The lynx adapt and start hunting new animals which could cause a massive disruption in the food chain.

Second question: When the number of hares increase in the environment it would mean more food for the lynx and other predatory animals. But with more food, comes more overpopulation. with plenty to eat the lynx population increases and that could cause problems for the environment, and other creatures.

Answer:

In case, when an allosteric site undergoes certain modifications it will demonstrate some changes like change in affinity towards the inhibitor, however, how the changes take place is not known exactly because of less knowledge of the FX11 composition. Though it is for sure that the modification will decline the affinity and the FX11 will exhibit less efficacy in preventing the growth of C. parvum.  

An inhibitor targets the allosteric site as the size and the functional groups present within the site matches with that of the inhibitor, and thus affinity is attained. However, when there is a change in structure, the affinity will also get influenced.  

The gossypol and FX11 can be utilized as drugs for human beings as these substances prevent the process of lactic fermentation, and the pathway for lactic fermentation generally is less common in human cells. The parasite C. parvum is found within the digestive tract, and the process of anaerobic respiration usually does not take place in the organs present in the digestive tract. However, in specific cases, only the muscle tissue can go through anaerobic respiration like in the case of performing physical activity. It is also to be noted that the drug can even invade other tissues via blood, therefore, at the time of consuming drugs, there is a need to instruct the patients to prevent any kind of physical activity.
