Vancomycin. Mechanism of Action: Inhibits cell wall synthesis by binding to the D-Ala-D-Ala terminal of the growing peptide chain during cell wall synthesis, resulting in inhibition of the transpeptidase, which prevents further elongation and cross-linking of the peptidoglycan matrix (see glycopeptide pharm).
Answer:
Explanation:
A peptide bond is a chemical bond formed between two molecules when the carboxyl group of one molecule reacts with the amino group of the other molecule, releasing a molecule of water (H2O). ... Polypeptides and proteins are chains of amino acids held together by peptide bonds, as is the backbone of PNA.

Explanation:
It is not possible to predict the sex of one individual offspring because since men have xy chromosomes, there is always a 50% chance that the offspring will be either a boy or a girl.
Answer:
a. map unit
Explanation:
The map unit is the unit to represent the chances or the frequency of the recombination between the two genes. It shows the distance between the two genes present on the same chromosome. The frequency of recombination between two genes present on the same chromosome represents the distance between them that is measured in the form of map units. For example, two genes are said to be 10 map units apart if they exhibit 10% recombination. These genes are mapped 10 centimorgans apart from each other on the chromosome.
