Answer:

The correct answer is: peptidoglycan cell walls and small ribosomes.

Explanation:

Antibiotics such as penicillin are great at attacking bacteria and must be used when dealing with bacterial infections.

Antibiotics work by messing with the bacteria cell wall. The bacteria cell wall is made from peptidoglycan and the strength and support given by it is key to the survival of these prokaryotes. <u>To attack the bacteria, the antibiotics inhibit the assembly of peptidoglycan.</u>

To solve a problem using the equation for Kepler’s third law, Enrico must convert the average distance of Mars from the Sun from
vovikov84 [41]

Answer:Enrico must multiply the distance of mars from sun (meters) with the 6.6844\times 10^{-12} to convert the distance in astronomical units.

Explanation:

1 astronomical unit  = 1.496\times 10^{11} m

1m=\frac{1}{1.496\times 10^{11} } AU=6.6844\times 10^{-12} AU

Let the distance between the sun and Mars be Y( meters)

Distance in AU= Y\times 6.6844\times 10^{-12} AU

Enrico must multiply the distance of mars from sun (meters) with the 6.6844\times 10^{-12} to convert the distance in astronomical units.

What are the phases of Mitosis and what happens in each phase?
Norma-Jean [14]
Interphase: Chromosomes duplicate, and the copies remain attached to each other.

Prophase: In the nucleus, chromosomes condense and become visible. Spindle fibers begin to form.

Prometaphase: The nulcear membrane breaks apart, and the spindle starts to interact with the chromosomes.

Metaphase: The copied chromosomes align in the middle of the spindle.

Anaphase: Chromosomes separate into two genetically identical groups and move to opposite ends of the spindle.

Telophase: Nuclear membranes form around each of the two sets of chromosomes, they begin to spread out, and the spindle begins to break down.

Cytokinesis: The two cells split into two daughter cells, each with the same number of chromosomes as the parent cell.
