Suppose you do this test on a hypothetical Staphylococcus species with the antibiotics penicillin (P-10) and levoflaxacin (L-5).

You record identical zone diameters of 25 mm for the levoflaxacin and penicillin disks. Which antibiotic would be more effective against this organism? What does this tell you about comparing zone diameters to each other and the importance of the zone diameter interpretive chart?

Answer:

Levoflaxacin

Explanation:

Levoflaxacin is the antibiotic which is more effective than penicillin against Staphylococcus species because Staphylococcus species are more resistance to penicillin  while not resistance against levoflaxacin antibiotic, so the Levoflaxacin is more effective against Staphylococcus species of bacteria.  Levoflaxacin kills about 99.9% of Staphylococcus species so we can say that it is more effective than penicillin.

What is the general trend in climate (both temperature and precipitation) over the past 50 years for the city of Seattle? PLZ GI
Lisa [10]

From the books of Geography Seattle is well known for its rain and dark, gloomy skies, but it may surprise many how pleasant the weather can be, particularly during the summer months. Using data from meteorological services for the past 50 years, we can conclude that November through March brings cool temperatures, heavy cloud cover and rain falling on most days. The coldest month is January with average lows in the mid to upper 30s F (about 3°C). Weather is pleasant from April through October, with the best weather in July and August when highs average in the 70s and rain is uncommon. Skies are mostly clear and smog-free, though mornings can produce an on-shore flow resulting in low clouds and fog which typically burns off by mid-day.

valina [46]

Protein elastin is used to made elastic fiber, component of connective tissue that found abundant in blood vessels, bones, tendon and skin. The effect should be prominent in those organs.

Aorta is the biggest artery blood vessels and it need more elasticity to withstand the pressure of the ventricle. Less elasticity makes aorta become enlarged. The bone will lose density and become thinner. The tendon in heart valve will be weaken and might cause the heart valve disease. The skin will lose elasticity, so it will be easier to stretch.
