Answer:
The correct answer is option 2. "Scientists use seismometers to measure the earthquake activity that occurs beneath a volcano. They then predict the eruption of that volcano".
Explanation:
A seismometer is an equipment used by scientists to monitor ground's motion, including the earthquake activity that occurs beneath a volcano. These instruments are useful to predict if a volcanic eruption is imminent. By analyzing the length and strength of the ground's motion occurring during earthquake activity near a volcano, scientist could predict if an eruption is about to take place.
Answer:
C. DNA ligase adds nucleotides to the lagging strand
Explanation:
DNA replication is the process during cell division in which DNA copies itself. DNA strands unwind with the help of helicase to initiate the process. DNA Polymerase III is responsible for prokaryotic replication and adds nucleotides in 5' to 3' direction. Since both the strands of DNA run in opposite direction their replication is slightly different. The lagging strand is also formed by DNA Polymerase III in discontinuous manner leading to formation of Okazaki fragments. DNA ligase joins these fragments once the replication process is completed.
Is this a multiple choice question?
Answer:
B. differential
Explanation:
The culture medium is a chemical preparation that has the necessary nutrients for microorganisms of a given biological sample to multiply, allowing its study, identification and analysis. The main components of a culture medium are sources of carbon, energy (sugars), nitrogen, phosphorus and minerals.
There are several types of culture medium, among them we can mention the differential culture medium, which is the type of medium that is being used in the experiment shown in the question above. The differential culture medium allows the distinction between various genera and species of similar microorganisms. This distinction is possible because this type of culture medium has substances that allow for a presumptive differentiation, evidenced by the color change or the morphology of the colonies.
