What role does evolution play in the emergence of antibiotic resistance in bacteria?

Biology

tiny-mole [99]3 years ago

<u>1</u><u>.</u><u>Antibiotic resistance is a consequence of evolution via natural selection. The antibiotic action is an environmental pressure; those bacteria which have a mutation allowing them to survive will live on to reproduce. They will then pass this trait to their offspring, which will be a fully resistant generation.</u>

<u>2</u><u>.</u><u> </u><u>Bacteria evolve quickly because they grow fast and can share genes. Helpful mutations spread quickly in bacteria.</u>

<u>3</u><u>.</u><u>Taking antibiotics too often or for the wrong reasons can change bacteria so much that antibiotics don't work against them. This is called bacterial resistance or antibiotic resistance</u>

<u>4</u><u>.</u><u> </u><u>Antibiotic resistance leads to higher medical costs, prolonged hospital stays, and increased mortality. The world urgently needs to change the way it prescribes and uses antibiotics.</u>

<u>I</u><u> </u><u>think</u><u> </u><u>so</u><u> </u>

tresset_1 [31]

Answer: centrioles and centrosomes

Explanation:

Centrioles are small granules found near the nucleus of ONLY animal cells from which flagella and cilia arise. Its functions include

- helping in cell division

- serving as basal body

Centrosomes also is located near the nucleus of animal cells and arranges microtubules. Its function is mainly giving protection to cell.

Which is a difference between proteins and carbohydrates and fats?
morpeh [17]

Answer:

HERE JUST TAKE IT

Explanation:

Ok, there's carbon and hydrogen in all of them, that's the only similarity. They are known collectively as macro-nutrients.

Carbohydrates are basically, oxygen, carbon and hydrogen and they're the bodies primary source of energy. This means that they're the first source of energy used which is why if you eat foods high in simple sugars you get a sugar rush. All carbs metabolize down to glucose, some faster than others.

Fats are called lipids. Lipids are very heterogeneous (this means that there's not much similarity between them). Some examples of lipids are steroids, seed oils, pork fat, cholesterol, etc. The main thing in common with them is that they don't mix with water. They are readily stored in fat cells in the form of tryglicerides and are used when carbs are all used up. They also yield the highest per gram amount of energy (it escapes me right now).

In a chemical sense, fats are lipids derived from animals (saturated, solid at room temperature) and oils are derived from plants and seeds (insaturated with some exceptions, and liquid at room temperature. Insaturated are healthier because they contain HDL which cleans your arteries (prevents artherosclerosis).

Proteins are made up of aminoacids, 20 make up the vast amount of human proteins. Enzimes (the most famous being digestive enzimes) are proteins, skin is covered in protein, hair is protein, cilia and flagella are protein, basically EVERYTHING is protein, after water the human body is basically protein. They're only used up as energy when everything else is used up.

When athletes eat/drink protein, it's to give them building materials in order to increase the amount of stuff inside their cells which will enable them to produce more energy.

Phantasy [73]

Answer:

<h2>No,</h2><h2>Phenotypic Ratio: 1 Chestnut : 2 Palomino : 1 Dilute</h2>

Explanation:

 As given:

The chestnut (dark brown) allele and a diluting (pale cream) alleles show incomplete dominance, means that both the alleles in heterozygous condition show their effect. So the heterozygous show the phenotype which is intermediate of both the parents, here a horse heterozygous for these two alleles is a palomino.

 There is in fact, no particular allele present for palomino, this phenotype only results due  to having two  different alleles for a gene. So, palominos can never be pure-breeding because they can never be  homozygous.

Let P1 chestnut and P2  dilute,

Palomino is P1P2

The Punnett’s  Square for palomino mated to palomino:

P1P2×  P1P2

Gametes are: parent-1 P1 and  P2 , parent-2:  P 1  and P2

Progeny are:  P1P1,      P1P 2,    P 2 P1,    P2 P2

Genotypic Ratio: 1 P1P 1  : 2 P1P 2  : 1 P2P 2

Phenotypic Ratio: 1 Chestnut : 2 Palomino : 1 Dilute
