Explanation:

Mycoplasma: A large group of bacteria, with more than 100 types identified. Mycoplasma are very simple one-celled organisms without outer membranes. They penetrate and infect individual cells. Mycoplasma hominis and Mycoplasma pneumoniae are examples of mycoplasma bacteria that occur in humans.

(A) Mycoplasma pneumoniae cells (Gram stain). The signet-ring-shaped cell of Mycoplasma is gram-negative, and the size of the cell is 0.2–0.3 μm and is normally smaller than 1.0 μm. Cells have no cell wall.

What is the treatment for mycoplasma infection? Antibiotics such as erythromycin, clarithromycin or azithromycin are effective treatment. However, because mycoplasma infection usually resolves on its own, antibiotic treatment of mild symptoms is not always necessary.

Doxycycline is a tetracycline antibiotic that is used to treat susceptible bacterial infections of both gram-positive and gram-negative organisms, as well as infections caused by Mycoplasma, Chlamydophilia, and Rickettsia

Mycoplasma testing includes a group of tests that either measure antibodies in the blood produced in response to a mycoplasma infection or detect the microbe directly through culturing or by detecting its genetic material (DNA) in a body sample. It is most often used to detect Mycoplasma pneumoniae (M.28

The invention of PCR make DNA fingerprinting possible because "PCR made it possible to produce enough copies for reliable tests".

Option: C

Explanation:

With the development of the PCR technique, DNA profiling has made enormous progress both in its distinguishing capacity and in its ability to survive information from very limited or damaged beginning samples. The PCR cycle mimics the biochemical mechanism of DNA replication yet restricts it to fragments of concern unique to DNA.

In the PCR method, the specimen of DNA is denatured by heating into separate polynucleotide strands. Two primers of DNA oligonucleotides are used for hybridization on opposite DNA strands to two matching nearby sites. Thus two new copies of the interest sequences are produced. Quantitative PCR methods allow accurate, high and automated calculations of the throughput.

Question: Which type of water holds the most drops on the surface of a penny before breaking the

Bingel [31]

Answer:

Plain Tap Water

Explanation:

You should find that plain tap water produces a much larger, stable drop of water on top of the penny than the soapy water does. This is because plain tap water has higher surface tension, so the surface is "stronger" and can hold together a larger drop.

What prefix before saccharide would you use to describe sucrose

Elden [556K]

"Mono" is the prefix that would be used before saccharide to describe sucrose, making it "Monosaccharide".
Mono is a Greek word usually used to indicate "Single" and Monosaccharide is the simple sugar which is the basic source of carbohydrates. This belongs to the class of sugar which cannot be further hydrolyzed into simpler sugar.
