Answer: To eliminate bacteria that failed to take in the plasmid.
Explanation:
Research shows that plasmid DNA is only taken in by small percentage of bacteria in a large population.
Therefore, the need of growing transformed bacteria in the presence of ampicillin is very important. The main reason of this process is to kill off or eliminate bacteria that have failed to take in the plasmid, due to their possession of recombinant DNA plasmid pARA-R (an ampicillin resistance gene), that allows them to survive.
However, after completion of the aforementioned procedure, the bacteria that have been transformed will be able to take in the plasmid.
Answer:B
Expiation: Mediterranean (mild) means hot summers, cool winters;dry summers,wet winters
Answer:
Chemical families on the periodic table are the following:
1) Alkali metals.
2) Alkaline earth metals.
3) Transition metals.
4) Halogens.
5) Noble gases
Explanation:
Alkali metals are those elements having one electron in the outermost shell. Alkaline earth metals are found in the earth such as calcium. Halogens means salt forming, it produces salts when combine with alkali. Noble gases are those which are non-reactive in nature.
The answer you are looking for is C. Nitrogen. Commonly found as Nitrite
(N3) or Nitrate (N2) nitrogen is a key element required by all life. Nitrogen is most often released back into the atmosphere by micro-organisms during the decomposition of organic matter, and into the ground through decomposition and defecation (Pooping).
