Number the steps of the binary fission process in the correct order

Biology

Naya [18.7K]3 years ago
5 0

Most bacteria rely on binary fission for propagation. Conceptually this is a simple process; a cell just needs to grow to twice its starting size and then split in two. But, to remain viable and competitive, a bacterium must divide at the right time, in the right place, and must provide each offspring with a complete copy of its essential genetic material. Bacterial cell division is studied in many research laboratories throughout the world. These investigations are uncovering the genetic mechanisms that regulate and drive bacterial cell division. Understanding the mechanics of this process is of great interest because it may allow for the design of new chemicals or novel antibiotics that specifically target and interfere with cell division in bacteria.

coldgirl [10]

Answer:

First evidence is both are plants.

Second evidence is both uses sunlight.

Explanation:

Grasses and clover are autotroph and can be classified as producer because they has the ability to produce their own food from the process of photosynthesis. Gerald’s classification is right because grasses and clover are plants and we know that plants are the producer of the ecosystem. We can also see that plant is the only organism which uses sun as a source of energy from which it produce their own food.

9966 [12]
Evolutionary theory predicted that bacterial resistance would happen. Given time, heredity and variation, any living organisms including the bacteria will evolve when a selective pressure, in this case an antibiotic is introduced. However it also gives doctors an patient some specific strategies for delaying even more widespread evolution of antibiotic resistance; these strategies include; avoid mild doses of antibiotics over long time periods, don't use antibiotics to treat viral infections, when treating bacterial infection with antibiotics, take all the pills, and also using combination of drugs to treat a bacterial infection.
