Answer: Option A. "tetracyclines"

Explanation:

Tetracyclines are defined as a group of broad-spectrum antibiotics that are either isolated directly from several species of Streptomyces bacteria or can be synthesised semi-synthetically.

Tetracyclines act as inhibitors of growth rather than killing the infectious agent. Tetracyclines passively diffuse through porin channels present in bacterial membrane. it reversibly bind to the bacterial 30S ribosomal subunit to inhibit protein synthesis and prevents the aminoacyl transfer ribonucleic acid (tRNA) from binding to A site of the ribosome.

Hence, it is proved that tetracyclines bind to 30s ribosomal subunit rather than 50S ribosomal subunit in the ribososmes.

Answer:

The correct answer is A they will no longer be able to perform aerobic respiration.

Explanation:

Rotenone is an isoflavonid compound which act an inhibitor of electron transport chain in mitochondria.Rotenone generally blocks the transfer of electrons from from NADH CoQ dehydrogenase or complex 1 to ubiquinone.

   As electron transport is blocked the reduced coenzymes such as NADH,FADH2 are unable to be oxidized.

 As a result cells exposed to rotenone will no longer be able to perform aerobic respiration.

2. Critical period

4. Determinism
