Assume that Staphylococcus aureus grows on nutrient agar with up to and including 15% (w/v) NaCl, while Escherichia coli cannot
Nutka1998 [239]
This means that Staphylococcus aureus is more tolerant to salt (NaCl), however, E. coli is sensitive to NaCl concentrations more than 10%. This also means that Staphylococcus has more fluid in its cytoplasm, as compared to E. coli, which enables it to tolerate in high salt concentration. Further, this also indicates the ability of both microbes to grow on different media compositions and have different nutritional requirements.

Epinephrine causes the enzyme glycogen phosphorylase to break down glycogen within a cell. Epinephrine performs this task on int
SIZIF [17.4K]

Answer:

The fact that it reveals is that:

Epinephrine binds to the receptor tyrosine kinase on the cell membrane and does not act on glycogen phosphorylase.

Explanation:

In cellular respiration, epinephrine is a neurotransmitter and a plasma membrane hormone receptor.  It is not a lipid-derived hormone, but rather an amino acid-derived hormone. As a result, they are unable to pass through the plasma membrane of cells. They bind to receptors on the outer surface of the plasma membrane through plasma membrane hormone receptors (receptor's tyrosine kinase of the cell membrane) because they are lipid insoluble hormones.

Unlike steroid hormones, lipid insoluble hormones (epinephrine) do not directly influence glycogen phosphorylase or the target cell because they cannot enter the cell and operate directly on DNA. The activation of a signaling pathway occurs when these hormones attach to a cell surface receptor; this activates intracellular activity and performs the hormone's specific effects. Nothing crosses through the cell membrane in this fashion; the hormone that binds at the cell's surface stays at the cell's surface, while the intracellular component stays within the cell.

The degradation of the environment from litter is a A. a negative externality. B. free rider problem. C. Tragedy of the Commons.
AlekseyPX

Answer:

D. Both a and c are correct.

Explanation:

The tragedy of the commons is a situation in a shared-resource system where individual users, acting independently according to their own self-interest, behave contrary to the common good of all users by depleting or spoiling the shared resource through their collective action.

It damages our environment (plants, animals) and impacts local tourism. It is smelly and dirty, and carries germs, bacteria and viruses. Places with a high degree of littering see a decreases in property values, and are more likely to be the site of fires.

Pollution is a negative externality. Economists illustrate the social costs of production with a demand and supply diagram. The social costs include the private costs of production incurred by the company and the external costs of pollution that are passed on to society.

Blowing litter can cause automobile accidents as well as land and air pollutions
