Answer:
They both have mountains and steep canyons
Explanation:
Answer:
% GENOTYPE
FF = 0%
Ff = 50%
ff = 50%
% PHENOTYPE
Black fur = 50%
Grey fur = 60%
Explanation:
This question involves a single gene coding for fur color in dogs. The allele for grey fur (F) is dominant over the allele for black fur (f). This means that a heterozygous dog (Ff) will have a grey fur.
In this question, a heterozygous female (Ff) is said to cross with a recessive male (ff) i.e. Ff × ff. The following gametes will be produced by each parent:
Ff - F and f
ff - f and f
Using these gametes in a punnet square (see attached image), the following genotypic proportion of offsprings will be produced:
Ff - 1/2 = 50%
ff - 1/2 = 50%
Ff is phenotypically GREY while ff is phenotypically BLACK. This means that 50% of the offsprings will be black and 50% will be grey.
Answer:
All the given statements are correct except b.
Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) refers to the ability of a microorganism to grow in the presence of drug or a chemical that would normally limit its growth or kill it.
It makes it difficult for the existing drugs to eliminate the infection as they become less effective against the microbe.
There are five major mechanisms by which a microbe attains resistance against antimicrobial chemical or drug:
- Drug modification or inactivation: A microbial enzyme inactivates the antimicrobial agent. For example, few bacteria produce β-lactamases which provide multi-resistance against β-lactam antibiotics such as penicillin, cephalosporin etc.
- Alteration or modification of target site: An altered target site prevents the antimicrobial agent from binding to its target. For example, alteration of penicillin binding protein (PBP) in Methicillin-resistant <em>Staphylococcus aureus </em>(MRSA).
- Alteration of metabolic pathway: The microbe uses an alternative pathway to circumvent the blocked pathway. For example, sulfonamides-resistant bacteria started using preformed folic acid in place of para-aminobenzoic acid (PABA).
- Decreased drug accumulation: Microbial efflux pumps remove the antimicrobial agent (before it could do any damage) by pumping it out of the cell.
- Decrease in cell permeability: The permeability of the microbial envelope to the antimicrobial agent is decreased
Answer:
A chromosome is a long DNA molecule with part or all of the genetic material of an organism. Most eukaryotic chromosomes include packaging proteins called histones which, aided by chaperone proteins, bind to and condense the DNA molecule to maintain its integrity
Feldspar and quartz are the correct answers
