Answer:

The correct answer is C. In the plaque assay for bacteriophages, the plaque is a clear zone caused by a zone of lysis.

Explanation:

The plaque assay is an approach used for titering bacteriophage stocks or determining the quantity of infectious virus in a sample. Plaques are visualized if you spot the phage on a lawn of growing compatible bacteria. Each plaque indicates an initial infection with one phage followed by lysis of neighboring bacteria in the lawn. Only viruses that cause visible damage of cells can be assayed in this way. The plaque assay is used to determine viral titer as plaque-forming units per ml so that known amounts of virus can be used to infect cells during subsequent work.

In the plaque assay for bacteriophages, the plaque is a clear zone caused by a zone of lysis.

If you were designing a lander to work on mars, where on earth would you test it? Why?
emmasim [6.3K]
Hmm good question. Well I would have to test it for where there are no living life. I would have to build another NASA in the County because there is plenty of room there. Mars is made out of Dusty Crust that is about 30 miles thick. And let's say that the desert's Dusty Crust is about 5 miles - 15 miles thick. That will give about the same amount of surface that mars has. So we would know what to build for a perfect lander to work on Mars. This isn't much but it is something.

Answer: 3. adenine (A, green), thymine (T, red), cytosine (C, orange), and guanine (G, blue). 4. adenine (A), cytosine (C), and guanine (G) — are also found in DNA. 5. A nucleotide consists of a sugar molecule (either ribose in RNA or deoxyribose in DNA) attached to a phosphate group and a nitrogen-containing base. The bases used in DNA are adenine (A), cytosine (C), guanine (G), and thymine (T). 6.  food crops like soy and corn that have been genetically modified for pest and herbicide resistance. These crops are widely known as “GMOs” (genetically modified organisms). 7. There are two differences that distinguish DNA from RNA: (a) RNA contains the sugar ribose, while DNA contains the slightly different sugar deoxyribose (a type of ribose that lacks one oxygen atom), and (b) RNA has the nucleobase uracil while DNA contains thymine. brainliest?

Valence shell
The number of electrons in the outermost shell of a particular atom determines its reactivity, or tendency to form chemical bonds with other atoms. This outermost shell is known as the valence shell, and the electrons found in it are called valence electrons.
