Answer:
a) Percent recovery
100%, 70.58%, 4.11%, 1.29% , 0%
b) MBC = 160 ng mL
c) Static
Explanation:
A) Calculate the percent recovery for each group
i) for 0ng mL
( 3.4*10^5 / 3.4*10^5 ) * 100 = 100%
ii) for 10ng mL
( (2.4 * 10^5) / (3.4 * 10^5) ) * 100 = 70.58%
iii) for 20ng mL
( ( 6.4 * 10^5 ) / ( 3.4 * 10^5 ) ) * 100 = Nil
iv) for 40 ng mL
( ( 1.4 * 10^4 ) / ( 3.4 * 10^5 ) ) * 100 = 4.11 %
v) for 80 ng mL
( ( 4.4 * 10^3 ) / ( 3.4 * 10^5 ) ) * 100 = 1.29%
vi) for 160 n mL
percentage recovery = 0%
B) what is the MBC
The value of MBC = 160 n mL because at this concentration CFU/mL = 0
c) determine if the antimicrobial tested is static or cidal
condition : If, the ratio of MBC : MIC is ≤4 then novel compound is Cidal
MBC / MIC = 160ng / 10ng = 16 : 1
hence we can conclude that the antimicrobial tested is STATIC
The project that you are working on was initiated in response to the growing threat of antibiotic resistance in both hospital and community settings. Even in the early discovery and development phase, it is important to think ahead to try to minimize the likelihood that bacteria will be able to evolve resistance to your new drug. Understanding how resistance emerges is an essential part of this process. What is true regarding the evolution of antibiotic resistance in bacteria?
Answer:
Decrease the effectiveness of this process.
Explanation:
Resistance emerges is an essential part of this process because this resistance causes decrease in the effectiveness of the drugs. If this resistance is not a part of this process, the microbes get resistance from the drugs which leads to lower the effectiveness of antimicrobial disease or infection so that's why resistance is considered as the essential part of this process of project.
A suspension of yeast cells is being grown under anaerobic conditions such that glucose is metabolized to ethanol and carbon dioxide. An inhibitor of alcohol dehydrogenase is added to the suspension, the cells rapidly die. Explain.
Answer:
The correct answer is - NAD needed to keep glycolysis going is not being recycled so the entire process is shut down and no ATP is produced
Explanation:
Alcohol dehydrogenase plays role in metabolizing the bulk of ethanol consumed as part of the diet and their activities contribute to the rate of ethanol elimination from the body.
Inhibitor of this zinc enzyme prevents it to perform its function which results in NADH generated during anaerobic conditions glycolysis cannot be recycled back to NAD+, So the ATP production pf anaerobic condition through glycolysis cannot be maintained.
Psychometric scores for anxiety, depression, negative self, somatization, and hostility were combined into a single Global Severity Index (GSI). Global Severity Index was compared for 80 adolescents who were seen in the outpatient clinic for 7 different physical complaints (short stature, obesity, lack of weight gain, breast problems, genital problems, menstrual problems, and hirsutism). Report the degrees of freedom for the relevant F statistic in the numerator and the denominator. (Round your answers to the nearest whole number.)
Answer:
The correct answer is -
Numerator = 6
Denominator = 73
Explanation:
In F static test or table there are two sets of degrees of freedom: one for the numerator and one for the denominator. The degrees of freedom are equal to the number of observations minus one. Thus, if the sample size were 7 then the degree of freedom would be 7 minus 1
Numerator df = 7 - 1 = 6
Thus, the numerato would be - 6.
Denominator is calculated by subtracting the observation or variables from the total number of sample size.
Denominator df = 80- 7 = 73

D.
Answer: Air enters through the nose (and sometimes the mouth), moves through the nasal cavity, the pharynx, the larynx, enters the trachea, moves through the bronchi and bronchioles till the alveoli.
Explanation:The pathway of air in the respiratory system starts with the external organs of the nose and mouth.
Nose: Air is inhaled through the nostrils (and sometimes through the mouth) where it is filtered by the hairs and cilia to remove dust particles and moistened. The nasal cavity also moderates the temperature of the inhaled air.
Pharynx: This is a common passage for food, water, and air. It leads from both the nose and the mouth and leads to both the trachea (windpipe) and the oesophagus (foodpipe).
Larynx: This is the voice box situated just over the trachea and has a flap called the epiglottis which closes during swallowing to prevent food from entering the trachea and opens during breathing.
Trachea: Air now enters the windpipe which is situated behind the sternum (breastbone) and between the two lungs.
Bronchus: From the trachea, two bronchi (one bronchus for each lung) enter the lungs and divide and subdivide into secondary and tertiary bronchi, getting narrower as they proceed into the lung.
Bronchioles: The tertiary bronchi branch into fine tubules called bronchioles, the last passageways for air.
Alveoli:. Air ends its pathway in the alveoli (sing. alveolus) which are tiny sacs with very fine singe-celled walls. These alveoli are surrounded by capillaries that connect the pulmonary arteries and veins and that enable transfer of oxygen and carbon dioxide.

walnut/0.6
maple/4.5
redoak/0.6
ash/2.0
pine/2.4
The correct answer is C.
Explanation
According to the information provided, a bar graph (option C) is needed since this type of graph allows us to express the variation in time, distance, temperature, quantities, weight, among others. In this specific case, a bar graph allows students to analyze the time that each type of seed takes to fall from the second floor. Additionally, this is the only graph that shows the data of the chart. For example, the first bar represents the black walnut and its time is 0,6 seconds, and this value is shown by the light blue bar in the graph, which represent the same seed. According to the above, the correct answer is C.

Which part of a mushroom would be eaten?
Thallus
Sporangium
Mycelium
Septum
Hyphae
Answer:
After it is released from the snailExcavata SporangiumExplanation:
Schistosoma life cycle:
1. Human excretes schistosomes eggs through feces and/or urine. These eggs eventually reach the water.
2. Once in the water, schistosomes eggs hatch and release immature larvae named miracides.
3. Miracides swim and penetrate a freshwater snail, which is an intermediary host.
4–5. Once inside the snail, miracides turn into sporocites and then into cercariae. Cercariae characterize by having a bifurcated tail. Snails release the cercariae in water, and they swim until they get in touch with a mammal. Once they reach the mammal, they penetrate the skin and get into the body. This is the stage in which the parasite becomes infectious to humans. Just a few cercariae are enough to infect a person.
6. When cercariae penetrate their host body, they lose their tails and turn into schistosomules. These new forms travel to the liver, where they end their maturation process.
7. Males and females mate in the liver and migrate to veins of the intestine or bladder. Once there, the females lay the eggs, which are then excreted by the host. And the cycle begins again.

Excavata are asymmetrical protists. The group receives its name because of the appearance of the feeding groove. Excavata is composed of many protists. One of them is Parabasalid.
Parabasalids are parasitic protists, and one of them is Trichomonas vaginalis, which is transmitted sexually.

When DNA is copied, sometimes there are mistakes. Approximately how often does this
happen?
O A. There aren't any mistakes.
OB. 1 in a billion bases.
OC. 1 in a million bases.
OD. 1 in a trillion bases.
Reset Selection
Answer:
D. 1 in a trillion bases
Explanation:
A mutagen agent can change the genetic information of organisms increasing mutations over the natural level. Mutagens cause changes in the bases, and pairing bases, that compose DNI strands.
A mistake in the process of DNI copy during cell division might cause genetic changes in daughter cells. Defects DNI replication might be inherited if it occurs in germinal cells. But it can also cause many significant epigenetic changes.
Many of these changes can be detected on time by enzymes such as DNI polymerase. This enzyme can correct these mistakes or at least some of them, moving from 3´to 5´direction, and eliminating the mistakes.
The highly effective replication system, together with the action of enzymes, makes it rare to occur a mistake in DNI replication. Generally speaking, the mistaken rates in DNI replication are very low, meaning that only one in a trillion times occurs a mistaken DNI copy.

Intercostal nerves Group of answer choices are also known as cervical nerves. do not enter into a plexus and directly connect to the structures they supply. are found in the C6-T4 area of the vertebral column. extend through the sacrum. do not exist in humans.
Answer:
The correct answer is: do not enter into a plexus and directly connect to the structures they supply.
Explanation:
The anterior rami of the thoracic spinal nerves from T1 to T11 give birth to the intercostal nerves, which are part of the somatic nervous system.
The intercostal nerves supply the thoracic pleura and abdominal peritoneum, and they vary from the anterior rami of the other spinal nerves in that they each take their own path without forming a plexus, directly connecting to the structures they supply.
The intercostal nerves are derived from the somatic nervous system, unlike the autonomic nervous system nerves that innervate the visceral pleura of the thoracic cavity. They can govern muscle contractions and give sensory information about the skin and parietal pleura as a result of this. This explains why damage to the thoracic cavity's interior wall can be felt as a severe discomfort in the damaged area. Damage to the visceral pleura causes a pain that is not localized.

Mycelium
Septum
Hyphae
Answer:
Ascomycetes have zygotes
Mycelium
Explanation:
Ascomycetes have zygotes which is the main distinction between Ascomycetes and Basidiomycetes. Mycelium is a part of mushroom that is edible and can be eaten. Mycelium is the vegetative part of a fungus that consist of a mass of branching, thread-like hyphae. Hypha is a long, branching, filamentous body of mushroom as well as oomycete and actinobacteria. Hyphae are the primary mode of vegetative growth of fungi which is generally known as mycelium so mycelium is the edible part of mushroom.
A 55-year-old male is sent to your office to have an esophagogastroduodenoscopy. He is a heavy drinker and smoker who also consumes spicy foods on a daily basis. He is quite anxious about having the procedure performed and is afraid he might choke during insertion of the scope. His father and younger brother were both diagnosed with esophageal cancer. His father died, but the brother was just recently diagnosed and is taking chemotherapy.
A. List the risk factors the patient has for developing esophageal cancer.
B. How might you calm the patient's fears about the procedure?
Answer and Explanation:
A. The risk factors for this patient are age, family history, and smoking and alcoholism. That's because, most cases of esophageal cancer are detected at age 55 years. We must not forget that cancer is a disease with great genetic potential, which means that, as the father and brother of this patient had this type of cancer, this patient has a high probability of developing the same cancer. Furthermore, the constant consumption of cigarettes doubles the risk of developing esophageal cancer. This risk is also increased by alcoholism.
B. To calm the patient down, I would say that there is a very small and almost non-existent risk that he will choke or even feel the endoscopy insertion, as the entire procedure is done with the patient anesthetized and sedated.
A) Risk factors include
People between the age of 45 and 70 have the more risk of esophageal cancer.If the patient has genetic signs of cancer from the past generations may have highest risk of esophageal cancer.Males have more risk than women that is 3 to 4 times to develop esophageal cancer.Alcohol consumption also increases the risk of esophageal cancer.Too much weight or obesity increases the risk of esophageal cancer.Deficiency in nutrients, vitamins and minerals can increase risk of esophageal cancer.B) Calming the patients fears
Make the patient be happy and stress free.Do exercise which produces mood boost endorphins that get rid of worries and stress.Stay positive, being friendly keep good health.For more information on esophagogastroduodenoscopy, visit

D : due to an increase in birth rate
Answer:

Population growth slow as size increases in the logistic model A : due to density-dependent factors is correct option.
In the logistic model of population growth, the slowdown in population growth as the population size increases is primarily attributed to density-dependent factors. Density-dependent factors are those that have a stronger impact on a population when its density (number of individuals per unit area) is higher. As a population grows and becomes more dense, competition for resources (such as food, space, and mates) intensifies, and factors like disease transmission and predation become more significant.
These density-dependent factors can lead to a decrease in birth rates, an increase in death rates, or both, which ultimately results in the population growth rate slowing down and eventually stabilizing at its carrying capacity (the maximum sustainable population size for a given environment). This pattern is characteristic of the logistic growth model, which describes a more realistic and sustainable form of population growth compared to the exponential growth model.

Glycogen is an important and quickly mobilized source of stored glucose. Glucose is mobilized for ATP generation in muscle in response to epinephrine, which activates Gs. How would inhibitors of cAMP phosphodiesterase affect glucose mobilization in muscle
Answer:
Glucose mobilization would continue
Explanation:
The GTP-bound alpha subunit (Gαs) is a subunit of the heterotrimeric G protein which is required for stimulating the cAMP-dependent pathway through the activation of the membrane-associated enzyme adenylyl cyclase, which in turn catalyzes the synthesis of the second messenger cyclic-3′,5′-adenosine monophosphate (cAMP) from ATP. Moreover, cAMP phosphodiesterase is an enzyme that hydrolyzes cAMP, thereby negatively regulating the levels of this second messenger, which is fundamental for the termination of the signal. In this case, the epinephrine signal initiates glycogen breakdown (glucose mobilization) in muscle cells. In consequence, if the cAMP phosphodiesterase enzyme is inhibited, the concentration of cAMP will persist high even beyond the termination of the signal, thereby glucose mobilization would continue.
