Answer:

The product that must be produced to kill a bacterium —which causes a disease— is an antibiotic, which through biotechnology can investigate the structure of the bacterium and synthesize the chemical formula needed to produce antibiotics in high amounts.

Explanation:

Antibiotics are specific medicines for the treatment of infectious diseases, produced by bacteria. <u>Antibiotics can kill bacteria and prevent their replication</u>.

If a disease is produced by bacteria, the product that is necessary to kill those microbes is an antibiotic, for which biotechnology is useful.

By using biotechnology —a branch of biology that uses technology as a research and development tool— it is possible:

  • <em>Know the structure, functions and behavior of pathogenic bacterial strains. </em>
  • <em>Create chemical formulas -antibiotics- that serve to effectively eliminate bacteria, and cure infectious diseases. </em>
  • <em>The synthesis and production of antibiotics on a large scale, allowing their sufficient availability for use.</em>

4. If index of refraction 1 is 1.5, index of refraction 2 is 2.0, and the angle of incidence is 45 degrees, what is the angle of
motikmotik

Answer: The angle of refraction is 32°

Explanation:

By snell law, we have that:

n₁*sen(θ₁) = n₂*sen(θ₂)

Where n₁ = 1.5

n₂ = 2.0

θ₁ = 45°.

then we want to find the angle of refraction.

1.5*sin(45°) = 2*sin(x)

x = Asin(1.5*sin(45°)/2) = 32°

Discuss the Conditions necessary to cause water to diffuse out of a cell
sammy [17]

When water molecules diffuse through a cell membrane this process is called the osmosis. Water molecules are extremely small and because of this they can slip freely through the gaps between the phospholipids in the cell membrane. And as a result, water molecules can constantly move back and forth though the cell <span>
membrane. This movement of water has a very important function and that is it enables cells to absorb water. </span>

Now for a movement of water molecules to happen, there should be a concentration gradient in the surrounding. That is, the amount of water in one side must be different on the other side.

<span>For water to diffuse INTO the cell, the amount of water outside the cell membrane should be larger than the amount of water inside the side.</span>

How do you define newtons first law
Leokris [45]

ANSWER:

THE THREE LAW OF MOTIONS ARE LAW OF INERTIA, LAW OF INTERACTION & LAWW OF MASS AND ACCELERATION

  • Law of Inertia - An object at rest and an object in motion stays in motion with the same speed and in the same direction.
  • Law of Interaction - For every action, there is an equal but opposite reaction.
  • Law of Mass and Acceleration - The acceleration of an object as produced by a net force is directly to the magnitude of the net force and inversely propotional to the mass of the object.

<em>F= ma ;  a=F/m</em>

<em />

wherein;

<em>F= Force (N)</em>

<em>m= mass (kg)</em>

<em>a= acceleration (m/s^2)</em>
