A student placed a disk of filter paper in each of the following solutions: disinfectant 1, disinfectant 2, disinfectant 3, and

distilled water. While the four disks were soaking in their respective solutions, she streaked a sterile nutrient agar dish with a culture of E. coli bacteria. Then, she placed each disk carefully onto the nutrient agar dish, placed the lid on the dish, taped it shut, and incubated the dish at 37°C for several days. The diagram shows how the nutrient agar dish looked on Day 1 and Day 4. The shaded portion of the plate on day 4 indicates the bacterial growth. Look at the dishes in the diagram. Which disinfectant was the most effective at controlling the growth of E. coli?

<span>The disinfectant that was the most effective at controlling the growth of E. coli is disinfectant 2 because of the least number of Ecoli strains found on the dish compared to the other disinfectants. Also dish 4 that cointains water has the most number of Ecoli strains because water is not a disinfectant and Acoi do not die in water alone.</span>

Testosterone is an example of a chemical signal that affects the very cells that synthesize it, the neighboring cells in the tes
saw5 [17]

Answer: Autocrine signal, paracrine signal and endocrine signal.

Explanation:

Testosterone is an example of hormone which shows its effect on different locations of the cells.

The autocrine signal can be defined as the siganals which shows its effect on the cell from where it is being produced. This means a cell targets itself.

Then comes the paracrine signals in which signals acts locally on the cells nearby it. The cells close together to the cells producing chemical signals is being affected.

The endocrine signals can be defined as the effect of the hormone on the distant cells. The signals is produced by the cells somewhere else but is carried through the bloodstream to the distant cells.

All of the three effects is being shown by testosterone autocrine, endocrine and paracrine.

Assume that a particular human cell is examined under a microscope, and it contains 22 autosomes and a Y chromosome. This cell i
frez [133]

Answer:

A sperm cell

Explanation:

A diploid cell has 46 chromosomes which is normally signified by somatic cells. Germ cells or gametes are haploid cells therefore they contain only 23 chromosomes. Male gamete contains 22 autosomes and one sex chromosome. That sex chromosome can be X or Y.

Female gamete does not have Y chromosome as a sex chromosome, it has only X chromosome as a sex chromosome. So Y chromosome in a human cell which have 22 autosomes determines that it is a male gametic cell or a sperm cell. Sperm cells that have a Y chromosome if fuses with female gamete produce male offspring(XY).  

So the correct answer is- a sperm cell.

Pyrimidine biosynthesis is allosterically inhibited by ATP. a. requires an intermediate found in urea biosynthesis. b. does not
brilliants [131]

Answer:

requires an intermediate found in urea biosynthesis

Explanation:

Both pyrimidine and urea are carbon and nitrogen containing compounds. Carbamoyl phosphate provides both carbon and nitrogen in biosynthesis pathways of both pyrimidine and urea. Hence, it is an intermediate in both the pathways.

In urea biosynthesis carbamoyl phosphate provides its carbamoyl group to ornithine. In pyrimidine synthesis it donates the carbamoyl group to aspartate. Carbamoyl phosphate synthetase synthesizes carbamoyl phosphate by joining ammonium ions to carbon dioxide and adenosine triphosphate.
