A. prevent cross-contamination.
Answer:
The needle loop is use to transfer fungi to a soft agar and this will cause or create more fungal growth to occur in the slide.
Explanation:
Needle loop is a tool or device use in microbiology to inoculate microorganisms like bacteria and fungi in media to boost their growth. It is use for sampling and transferring specimens or microorganisms into a media for further analysis, examination and serial dilution.
Answer:
D. GTP
Explanation:
Initiation of protein synthesis includes binding of mRNA to small ribosome subunit and initiation aminoacyl tRNA. The pairing of the anticodon of the initiating aminoacyl tRNA and initiation codon of mRNA requires GTP hydrolysis and marks the beginning of protein synthesis.
Elongation stage of protein synthesis requires movement of the ribosome along the mRNA which in turn is facilitated by GTP hydrolysis. As the ribosome moves along the mRNA, the codon of mRNA bind to the respective anticodon of aminoacyl tRNA by using the energy of GTP hydrolysis. The GTPase activity of elongation factor Ef-Tu ensures the fidelity of the process.
The release factors that recognize the stop codon and serve to mark the termination of protein synthesis use the energy of GTP hydrolysis during the process.
