Answer:
Shark skin has been used by many cultures as sandpaper. It's kept shipmates safe in slippery-when-wet conditions. Swimsuits modeled on shark skin are said by Speedo to reduce drag by up to 4 percent. Now, research by two separate groups could lead to synthetic shark skin that would make ships and submarines faster and less expensive to operate.
I don't know what your question is but if you're wondering what is called when water changes from a gas to a liquid phase the answer would be Condensation
Some wisdom teeth is completely unharmful, as long as your mouth have enough space for it to grow healthy and you are sure that you can clean it properly, they make no problems.
However, if your mouth is too small, wisdoms teeth may grow in a tilted angle, this is big problem indeed. It may cause damage to other teeth since it doesn't grow upright. In addition, it may be a big problem to clean it properly so tooth decay may occur.
Therefore, it's better to visit the dentist and see if your wisdom teeth cause problem and whether you need to remove them or not.
I think the correct answer from the choices listed above is option C. <span>Enzymes are catalysts. This means that they are able to speed up chemical reactions. Also, they are not used up by reactions. They are not being consumed in the process. Hope this answers the question. </span>
Answer:
Explanation:
An antimicrobial agent is a natural or synthetic chemical that kills or inhibits the growth of microorganisms. Bacteria have a mechanism of transferring genomic material called <em>horizontal gene transfer</em><em>, the movement of genes between cells that are not direct descendants of one another</em>. Horizontal gene transfer allows cells to quickly acquire new characteristics and drives metabolic diversity. <u>One of the characteristics usually acquired is the resistance to antibiotics</u>.
Three mechanisms of genetic exchange are known in prokaryotes:
(1) transformation, in which free DNA released from one cell is taken up by another; (2) transduction, in which DNA transfer is mediated by a virus; and (3) conjugation, in which DNA transfer requires cell-to-cell contact and a conjugative plasmid in the donor cell.
Examples of genes transferred by transducing bacteriophages include multiple antibiotic resistance genes among strains of <em>Salmonella enterica </em>serovar <em>Typhimurium</em>, Shiga-like toxin genes in <em>Escherichia coli</em>, virulence factors in <em>Vibrio cholerae</em>, and genes encoding photosynthetic proteins in cyanobacteria.
Conjugative plasmids use a mechanism to transfer copies of themselves and the genes they encode, such as those for antibiotic resistance, to new host cells.
