interfere with carbohydrate digestion in the mouth..
Explanation:
A blockage of the ducts from the parotid glands would interfere with carbohydrate digestion in the mouth.
Answer:
The correct answer is "I, II, and III".
Explanation:
The missing options of this question are:
I only
II only
III only
I, II, and III
The correct answer is "I, II, and III".
Antibiotics are of different spectrums of activity depending on the number of pathogens they can kill. They are different reasons for this differences in antibiotic specificity:
I. Antibiotics interrupt processes found in some but not all pathogen cells. For instance, some antibiotics are directed to cell walls that not all bacteria posses.
II. Some pathogens have no metabolic processes to interrupt. The antibiotics that are directed to metabolic reactions of bacteria are not effective in treating viruses because they do not perform this metabolic reactions.
III. Some pathogens have developed genetic resistance to specific antibiotics. Bacteria have a remarkable genetic plasticity having plasmids that can be easily transmitted among them, which give them antibiotic resistance.
b. 10% of energy is transferred from the first to the second trophic level.
Explanation:
In trophic level flow of energy is one way, only a small amount of energy get transferred with the organism. A large amount of energy gets dissipated in life processes like respiration, reproduction and digestion. The energy is also released as waste product. Thus, only ten per-cent of the total energy is present in the organism.
The energy transfer does not depend on the number of trophic levels.
Each trophic level receives the 10% energy from the previous trophic level as when algae is eaten by flagship.
This is possible because proteins are created from different combinations of amino-acids. While we only have 20 different kinds of aminoacids, these 20 kinds can create thousands of combinations that we can observe in our bodies and bodies of other mammals as well as other organisms.
