Students have asked these similar questions
An example of inappropriate expression of a protein and what could be learned from this type of experiment include(s);
a. All of these would help a scientist to learn the functions of a protein.
b. Limiting the level of protein to identify the variety of functions of a protein.
c. Producing too much of a protein to identify the functions of a protein
d. Producing a protein too early in development to identify the function of that protein
Which of the following is NOT a method by which bacteria can be resistant to antibiotics?
Select one:
a. Utilise an alternate pathway of gene expression that is not targeted by the antibiotic.
b. Alter the binding site of the antibiotic, to either prevent it binding, or remove it from the site.
c. Production of enzymes that bind to and break down the specific antibiotic.
d. Production of a cell membrane pump that translocates antibiotics outside the cell.
A potential side effect of antibiotic use is a secondary bacterial or fungal infection, usually associated with regions like the skin, upper-respiratory tract or genitalia. What is the most likely reason for the formation of these secondary infections?
Select one:
a. Antibiotics do not work on viruses, so they are able to establish infections in these locations.
b. Organisms that are antibiotic resistant are usually more virulent, meaning they can survive and cause infection.
c. The antibiotic kills off normal flora, providing an…
What are the main characteristics of genetically encoded calcium indicators: (can be more then one answer)
A.Always allow ratiomeric measurement of calcium signal.B.Can be modified by genetic engineering, allowing to change their property, such as fluorescence wavelength, sensitivity, etc.).C.Much less sensitive than chemical indicators.D.Must be transfected, unlike chemical indicators that must be injected or penetrated through the membrane.
