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>

Which of the following statements does not highlight a difference in eukaryotic and prokaryotic translation?
Mekhanik [1.2K]

Answer:

a. the first methionine in eukaryotic translation contains a formyl group.

Explanation:

Protein synthesis begins when the initiator aminoacyl tRNA carrying the initiator amino acid joins the mRNA-small ribosomal subunit complex. Procaryotes and eucaryotes differ from each other in the identity of the first initiator amino acid. In both types of organisms, "AUG" serves as an initiation codon. However, procaryotes have formyl-methionine joined to the amino acid arm of the initiator tRNA while eucaryotic initiator tRNA carries methionine as the first amino acid to be added to the protein.

Algae grown in open pond systems are susceptible to invaders, what are they and

how do they impact the algae? Algae cultivation takes place in large ponds, or in enclosed systems enhanced with CO2. Algae cultivation has many commercial and industrial uses and looks to be a promising long-term sustainable source of biomass and oils for fuel, food, feed and other co-products. Algae have evolved to produce and store energy in the form of oil. They are more efficient than many other natural or engineered

En un bosque oscuro, ¿qué variación de la polilla salpicada se reproduciría en
julia-pushkina [17]

Answer:

Condiciones ambientales adecuadas.

Explicación:

La variación de la polilla moteada se reproduciría en mayor número debido a las condiciones ambientales adecuadas. El color oscuro del bosque ayuda a la polilla moteada a esconderse de sus depredadores que se alimentan de ellos y provoca la disminución de la población de polillas. Es un proceso de selección natural en el que la polilla de color oscuro sobrevive y aumenta la población debido al color oscuro del bosque, mientras que la población de polilla de color claro disminuye debido a la alta depredación.
