The benefits of inoculating all food crop plants with the
Concept Introduction:
Mutualism is one of the types of symbiotic relationship that benefits both members. Mutualism improves fitness of the both members. There is a tertiary symbiotic relationship which occurs between plant, fungus, and mycovirus. This relationship helps grass plants to survive at extreme hot temperatures.

Do you have any suggestions on how they could have controlled the spread of kudzu? As you stated in your post, the plant thrives in certain environmental conditions. Do you feel that certain environmental aspects can be purposely altered in an attempt to slow the progress of the plant? I was more interested in the kudzu plant as it has the ability to cause great harm, even to the extent of wiping out other plants and trees.

- Which part of the plant is best suited for making virus-free plants and why?arrow_forwardHello, please read the attached Microbiology question and answer both parts correctly. Please explain your answer. *If you correctly answer the question and its two parts, I will provide a Thumbs Up to you. Thank you.arrow_forwardDuring the anthrax crisis of 2001, public health officials urged citizens not to take the antibiotic ciprofloxacin as a preventative measure. Public health officials were concerned that overuse of ciprofloxacin would lead to resistant varieties of anthrax and other bacterial pathogens. Ciprofloxacin is one of the few readily available antibiotics that can treat anthrax. 1)Do you think that public health officials should more directly regulate the availability of ciprofloxacin to ensure its proper use? 2)Why?arrow_forward
- Since early 2020 human societies around the world have suffered a viral pandemic and struggled to cope with Covid-19. Provide one example of a policy or response that has been effective and one example of a policy or response that has been ineffective. Propose a policy that should be implemented in the near future. ( should be based on your knowledge of evolutionary biology.)arrow_forwardThe increased incidence of covid-19 cases is due to the delta variant which has been found primarily to be airborne. Viruses and other microorganisms are considered to be constituents of particulate air pollutants. The DENR-EMB requires engineering tools and techniques that would significantly reduce the emission of pollutants into the atmosphere. Which of these tools and techniques would be the most appropriate for use in reducing particulate pollutants carrying covid-19 viruses? Why?arrow_forward7) Farmers in India have increased the harvest yield of food crops like eggplant by growing them from seeds that have been modified to produce a bacterial toxin that is harmful to pest insects. This is an example of a) selective breeding of the insecticide b) spraying an insecticide on plants c) selective breeding of the eggplant d) an application of biotechnologyarrow_forward
- Describe the interactions of Agrobacterium tumefaciens with its host plant. Why is this plant pathogen useful for biotechnology?arrow_forwardWhat is the best advise for obtaining 2-log viral inactivation when the needed CT free chlorine is 60 min mg per L, CT chloramine is 11,000 min mg per L, and CT chlorine dioxide is 170 min mg per L? Considering these virus-inactivation approaches (chlorine dioxide, chloramine, and free chlorine).when using CT values to disinfect water assets following a water quality event, what biological elements and physicochemical aspects must be considered? Display the CT curve as well as the effect of increasing pH on inactivation kinetics, and estimate the CT values that will be needed.arrow_forwardRegarding recombinant vaccines, it is INCORRECT to state that: (Only one statement corresponds to the answer) * (a) They are free from infectious viral particles, which increases safety in production and use (b) The development of recombinant vaccines is generally faster than conventional vaccines from inactivated or attenuated pathogens (c) Expansion of production scale is easier than conventional vaccines, since they are produced using fermentation methods in bioreactors (d) The development of recombinant vaccines depends on industrial cultivation methods of the pathogen of interest (e) Recombinant vaccines can be produced on different platforms, such as animal and microorganism cellsarrow_forward
- This article highlights a young doctor at Elmhurst Hospital during the beginning of Covid-19 pandemic. Dr. Zikry is quoted as saying: “It’s become very clear to me what a socioeconomic disease this is...”. In addition, the textbook discusses the personal variables and socioeconomic status (SES) that are used to find patterns in disease (pp.112-118). What do you think Dr. Zikry meant by referring to the SES of his patients? Why was it important to find a pattern of personal variables and SES among the of victims of Covid-19 at the beginning of the pandemic?arrow_forwardAn inter-strand grouping of students is working on a study about the Copper-infused materials utilization for real environment viruses and bacteria to address good health and well-being of the target beneficiaries. They want to compare the utilization and non-utilization of copper infused materials if it will yield the same results when introduced to reduce bacterial contamination. What would be the advantage of using stratified over quota sampling in this scenario?arrow_forwardA) One assay format that might be appropriate for developing a point of care diagnostic kit to determine the presence of a pathogen in a patient. B) One assay that would be appropriate to study which location of the lung is being targeted by a virus.arrow_forward
