Many bacteria are able to pass small pieces of the hereditary information on their DNA from one bacterial cell to another. This can sometimes result in an increase in the number of drug-resistant bacteria. What name is given to the process by which one bacteria transfers DNA to another? A) sporolysis B) conjugation C) gametic transfer D) haploid translocation

Answers

Answer 1
Answer:

Answer:

The process in which one bacteria transfers DNA to another is called conjugation.  

Explanation:

Conjugation is the process of transferring genetic material from one bacteria to another through direct cell contact. In the process of conjugation one bacteria acts as donor and transfer the DNA to a recipient. There is a specific DNA sequence present in Donor's DNA called fertility factor (F factor). F factor helps in the formation of pillus which is the site of genetic material transfer.

All the iron molecules that are in your body were originally created by____A a black hole
B a star
C a nebula
D the sun
E the force of gravity

Answers

Answer: Option 'B' is correct.

Explanation:

All the iron molecules that are in your body were originally created by a star.

During a star supernova, a very large amount of energy and neutrons are released by stars which allows heavier elements to be produced.

And when there is explosion of star occurs, those elements are found which is used to make DNA and DNA contains large amount of iron molecules.

Hence, Option 'B' is correct.

I think the answer is B - a star! Hope this helps!

Explain how a drought might result in a famine.

Answers


A drought might result in a famine because without water, plants won't be able to grow, so the organisms that eat the plants will starve, as will the organisms that eat the organisms that eat the plants, and the organisms that eat the organisms that eat the organisms that eat the plants, and so on, resulting in a famine.
Its bcause when there is drought , crops or animals will die because of dryness, So therefore as a result of drought , people suffer from hungry because they got no food to eat .

a substance that moves  across a cell membrane without using the cells energy tends to move?

a.)  away from the area of equilibrium

b.) away from the area where it is less concentrated.

c.) away from the area where it is more concentrated

d.) toward the area where it is more concentrated

Answers

Answer: The correct option is C.) away from the area where it is more concentrated.

A substance that moves across a cell membrane without using the cells energy tends to move from an area of high concentration to an area of low concentration.

This is known as Passive transport. In this transport, substances move down the concentration gradient i.e from an area of high concentration to an area of low concentration. It is also called simple diffusion as no energy is required in this process.

C because this is passive transport and not using any energy. Passive transport is where a substance is moved from high concentration to low concentration.
