The level that is used in nuisance contaminations that are
present and requires the lowest form of chemical or respiratory protection is
the level d. This level requires use of protection that are only minimal such
gloves, booths, safety glasses, mask or shield.
<u>Answer</u>: Bacteria through the nucleoid (number 5).
<u>Explanation</u>:
Both paramecium and bacteria are single celled organisms. However, they differ by the fact that the first one is an eukaryote and the second one a prokaryote.
Furthermore, they differ in their capacity to mutate and adapt to environmental changes. Bacteria have a simple internal structure that lacks any organelles and are very adept at adapting to environmental changes. Besides their capacity for high mutation rates, they are also capable of picking up genetic information from their environment through a process called <em>transformation</em>.
Through transofrmation, environmental DNA enter the living bacteria through its cell membrane. Double stranded DNA will have one strand dissolved through hydrolysis, whereas the second strand may recombine with the bacterial <em>chromosome (nucleoid)</em>. Thus, this new genetic material will become incorporated into the bacterium's genome.
Answer:
Antibiotic resistance can evolved in bacterial population in the following ways:
Explanation:
- In response to constant exposure to antibiotics some members of a bacterial population develop some beneficial mutations in some essential genes that gives them survival advantage in terms of food and space over the sensitive bacterial strains and hence they are capable of out-competing the sensitive bacteria.
- This happens due to the process of Natural Selection.
- These genes are called antibiotic resistance genes and bacteria usually carry them on plasmids in form of cassettes where genes resistant to multiple drugs are incorporated. These plasmids are called the MDR or Multi-Drug Resistance Plasmids.
- These resistant plasmids can be easily transferred among bacterial populations by conjugation, transformation or transduction or direct plasmid transfer.
- The resistant genes encode for proteins that render the drug ineffective by promoting their efflux from the cells, preventing their entry into the cell, chemically modifying them such that they become non-functional or altering the target site of the drug.
