Klio2033 [76]

Answer:

The main difference between Prokaryotic and Eukaryotic cell is that, eukaryotes contain membrane bound organelles like nucleus where as prokaryotes do not. The genetic material is present at the center and is called nucleoid in prokaryotes.

Explanation:

Example of prokaryotes include bacteria and archea bacteria. Examples of eukaryotes include plants and animals. Prokaryotes lack organelles such as mitochondria, endoplasmic resticulum and lysosomes which are present in eukaryotes.

Cultures of a bacterial species were incubated on the shelf of a refrigerator (5 C), out on a lab bench top (22 C), on the shelf
Setler79 [48]

D) Psychrotrophs.

Explanation:

  • Psychrotrophs are those bacteria which can tolerate cold temperature and have optimum growth above 15 degree Celsius.
  • Halophiles prefer high salt concentration.
  • Mesophiles prefer temperatures with a average of 37 degree Celsius.
  • Anaerobes grow in absence of oxygen.
  • In the given experiment, none of the bacterial cultures were placed in saline or anaerobic conditions. So, the bacterial species is not an anaerobe or halophile.
  • Again the cultures did not show growth at 37 degree celsius so they are not mesophiles.
  • Maximum growth at 22 degree celsius and a little growth in refrigerator make it obvious that the species is a Psychrotroph.

Gnesinka [82]

Answer:

a. disruption of mitotic spindle formation.

Explanation:

Vinblastine is a chemotherapeutic drug which is used to restrict cancer cell proliferation. During metaphase, it binds to microtubular proteins which play a very important role in mitotic spindle formation. If spindles will not form then during anaphase, the sister chromatids will not separate and mitosis will not take place. This is how hyper-proliferative cancerous cells are controlled from dividing and cancer is treated using this drug.
