<span>The reason why foods such as pineapples, pickles and tomatoes can be treated with temperatures less than 100 is because t</span>hese foods are highly acidic (pH<4.6) which provides a hurdle to microorganims.
Low-acid foods have pH values higher than 4.6, while a<span>cid foods have a pH of 4.6 or lower. They include fruits, pickles, sauerkraut, jams, jellies, marmalades, and fruit butters.</span>
Answer:
A recombinant phage containing both mutations.
Explanation:
A recombinant organism is produced by recombination, which is a genetic phenomenon associated with the repair of double-strand breaks in DNA. In genetic research, recombinant organisms are used to investigate target gene expression. The process of DNA repair may be associated with two different pathways: homologous recombination (HR) and non-homologous end-joining (NHEJ). In this case, the recombinant phage contains no overlapping mutations (i.e., both deletion and point mutations), thereby carrying the desired genetic combination.

Agronomic Principles
Crop Characteristics
Potatoes produce a fibrous root system. These roots are at best no more than 24in long. Thus potatoes are shallow rooted compared to cereals for example, which can root to at least 47in depth. As a result, potatoes are often unable to exploit nutrients and soil moisture at depth within a soil profile.
While root growth occurs when soil temperatures are between 50 to 95˚F (10 to 35˚C), best, most active root development is at soil temperatures of between 59 and 68˚F (15 and 20˚C).
Leaf (haulm) growth occurs at temperatures of between 44.6 to 86˚F (7 to 30˚C) , but optimal growth is at around 68 to 77˚F (20 to 25˚C). Optimum temperatures for stolon growth are similar.
effects of soil temperature on root development
The potato tuber is an enlarged portion of the stolon. The initiation of this tuber is triggered by short day lengths (photoperiods), and involves growth hormones. The colder the soil temperature, the more rapid the initiation of tubers and the greater the number of tubers formed. The optimum soil temperature for tuber initiation is 59 to 68˚F (15 to 20˚C).
Under these conditions, the potato plant will have short stolons and shoots. Longer day lengths delay tuber initiation and favor the growth of the stolon and shoot. High temperatures also reduce tuber formation. Late varieties seem to be more sensitive to long day lengths or high temperature conditions.
Low nitrogen and high sucrose levels in the plant favor the formation of more tubers.
Once formed, tubers grow rapidly, reaching a maximum rate of up to 1,249 lb/ac/day in temperate climates. See figure below:

Physiological Aging
By planting sprouted seed, crop growth can be advanced. The magnitude of this response and its effect on increasing crop yield is related to the physiological age of the seed at planting.
Answer:
The correct answer will be-
1. Weed- 40%
2. Fruit fly- 60 %
3. Mice- 97.5 %
4. Chimpanzee-98.5 %
Explanation:
Charles Darwin suggested that all organism on earth have descended from a common ancestor. The modern technology-enabled humans to sequence the genome of an organism and compared them with each other.
When the human genome was compared with the genome of other organism found the similar sequences in them like - Weed shared 40% of the genome with humans, fruit fly shared 60% genome, mice showed 97.5% genome similarity and chimpanzees showed 98.5 % with the human genome.
On the basis of this, the chimpanzee was found to be the closest species to humans
