During the Carboniferous period, Virginia was equatorial and the warm seas supported abundant life and the deposition of lime se

diments. The limestones produced from these sediments contain fossils of bryozoans and relatives of sea urchins and sand dollars. On land, coastal swamps formed along what is now the Appalachian Plateau. Tree ferns, horsetail rushes, and other plants grew in abundance in these swampy lowlands. This warm, tropical environment was the original source of what natural resource mined throughout this area during the past century?

The correct answer is coal.

The coal was produced in the carboniferous period by the deposition of the dead remain of the plant and the animals. The steamy swamps present at the time of carboniferous period allowed the thick peat to form, which eventually got buried in the ground and by the action of the heat and the pressure, the peat formed coal, which is mined now.

Which food is at a temperature that allows bacteria to grow well ? A) a roast at 125•F (52•c) B) hamburgers at 165•f (74•c) C) p
Lilit [14]

The correct answer is A) A roast at 125°F (52°C)

Explanation:

In general terms, bacteria thrive at warm temperatures; this means bacterial growth is lower at extremely hot/cold temperatures, but it is higher at warm or medium temperatures. Indeed, the ideal temperature for bacteria to develop and reproduce is between 4° C and 60°C. This implies from the options given the roast at 52°C represents an ideal temperature for the growth of bacteria. Also, other options include temperatures above 60°C, and therefore do not allow bacteria to grow well.

Assume that one of the disinfectant/antiseptics tested using the disc method had a clear zone of inhibition and to your surprise
o-na [289]

The presence of the minute growth near the disc signifies that the bacterial innoculum contains mutant microorganisms that are able to grow in the presence of toxic substances.

<h3>What are zones of inhibition?</h3>

The sensitivity testing in a microbiology laboratory is done to determine the effect of antibiotics on various bacteria organisms

The zone of inhibition when a disk method is used signifies the area of media where bacteria are unable to grow, due to presence of a drug that impedes their growth.

If there are presence of minute growth near the disc, it means that the bacterial innoculum contains mutant microorganisms that are able to grow in the presence of toxic substances such as disinfectants.

If these mutant bacteria organisms are not cleared by the disk method, it means that they cannot be killed by the disinfectant/antiseptics that is being tested.

Explain some use of chromosome?
Korolek [52]
<h3>Chromosomes are the thread-like structure found in the nuclei of both animal and plant cells. They are made of protein and one molecule of deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA). Organisms grow by undergoing cell division to produce new cells and replace older, wornout cells. During this cell division, DNA must remain intact and keep its even distributionthroughout the cells. Chromosomes are important to this process to ensure the DNA is accurately replicated.</h3>
