<span>The answer is green, yellow or brick-red. If simple sugars are present, the blue solution will turn green, yellow or brick-red when combined with the food sample and heated. </span>Benedict's solution<span> is used to test for simple sugars, such as glucose. It is a clear blue solution of sodium and copper salts. When heated with the food sample, the blue solution changes color to green, yellow, and brick-red, depending on the amount of sugar.</span>
Answer:
The correct option is : a. diameter
Explanation:
The Kirby–Bauer test or the disk diffusion test, is a method to determine the antibiotic sensitivity of the given bacteria. This test involves the use of antibiotic discs to determine the effect of antibiotics on the bacteria.
In this test, the wafers having antibiotics and the bacteria are placed on the agar plate and incubated. If the antibiotics present stops the growth of the bacteria, there will be an area around wafer with no bacterial growth, such an area is known as the zone of inhibition.
<u>The </u><u>diameter of this zone of inhibition</u><u> is measured to determine the </u><u>antibiotic sensitivity of the given bacteria</u><u>.</u>
Answer:
any of two or more forms of a chemical element, having the same number of protons in the nucleus, or the same atomic number, but having different numbers of neutrons in the nucleus, or different atomic weights. There are 275 isotopes of the 81 stable elements, in addition to over 800 radioactive isotopes, and every element has known isotopic forms. Isotopes of a single element possess almost identical properties.
Explanation:
A haploid cell is a cell typically with half the number of chromosomes (a sex cell) used for reproduction.
A diploid cell is the opposite, a full set of chromosomes not intended for sexual reproduction but typically used in mitosis.
Answer:
Ion channels are specialized proteins in the plasma membrane that provide a passageway through which charged ions can cross the plasma membrane down their electrochemical gradient.
Explanation:
Ion channels are molecular machines that serve as principal integrating and regulatory devices for controlling cellular excitability. Different types of ion channels have been described: channels that respond to mechanical, electrical (voltage-dependent ion channels), or chemical stimuli (ligand-gated ion channels); ion channels that are controlled by phosphorylation/dephosphorylation mechanisms; and ion channels that are dependent on G proteins. Most ion channels are of the voltage-dependent type and consist mainly of sodium (Na+), potassium (K+), and calcium (Ca2+) channels. Drugs can affect ion channel function directly by binding to the channel protein and altering its function or indirectly through G proteins and other intermediates. Lidocaine is a good example of a drug that directly affects voltage-gated Na+ channels by blocking the channel and thus Na+ entry into the cell.
