Answer:

Yes, with the assistance of electroporation the bacteria Enterococcus can be made competent, and afterward, the Streptococcus bacterial genes can be presented within the Enterococcus with the help of a cloning vector.  

The electropermeabilization or electroporation refers to a microbiology technique in which the permeability of the cell membrane is enhanced with the application of the electric field. This permits drugs, chemicals, or DNA to get presented within the cell.  

The procedure of electroporation is generally used in the field of microbiology to transform yeast, bacteria, or protoplasts of plants by presenting novel coding DNA.

Lelu [443]

Answer:

A. broad spectrum

Explanation:

An antibiotic is a substance that has the capability to inhibit the growth of or kill bacteria.

A broad spectrum antibiotic has the capability to be inhibit or kill a wide range of bacteria species while a narrow spectrum can only operate within a narrow range of bacteria species.

<em>Hence, in a situation where the the causative organism of the disease (the pathogen) is not known, it is better to use a broad spectrum antibiotic because such antibiotic has a higher chance of eliminating the pathogen.</em>
