bacteriocidal?
Answer Posted / darshana
bacteriostatic means slows down the growth of bacteria?drug
removed, bug grows.
examples: chlroamphenicol, clindamycin, macrolides,
spectinomycin, sulfonamides, tetracyclines, trimethoprim .
bactericidal means kills the microbe .
examples: aminoglycosides, bacitracin, cephalosporins,
penicillins, high dose macrolides, quinolones, vancomycin,
rifampin.

Is biotechnology more dangerous to other gene transfer technologies breeding?
Cystic fibrosis (CF) occurs with a frequency of about 1/2500 Caucasian newborns and is inherited as an autosomal recessive. A woman had an older sister die from complications of this disease. CF is not present among relatives of her husband. Both the woman and her husband have normal phenotypes. What is the chance this couple will have a CF child
Flower position, stem length, and seed shape were three traits that were studied by Mendel. Each is controlled by an independently assorting gene. If a plant that is heterozygous for all three traits was allowed to self- fertilize, what proportion of the offspring would be expected to show all three dominant phenotypes?
Is Genetic Engineering worth the cost and effort?

What is the importance of genetics?
In sesame, the one-pod condition (P) is dominant to the three-pod condition (p), and normal leaf (L) is dominant over wrinkled leaf (l). The two characters are inherited independently. Determine the genotypes and phenotypes of the two plants which produce the following progeny: 318 one- pod normal, 98 one-pod wrinkled, 323 three-pod normal and 104 three-pod wrinkled.
What are teaspoons?
In cucumbers normal leaves (N) are dominant to curled leaves (n) and elongated fruit (L) is dominant to spherical fruit and these genes are linked on the same chromosome. If a pure-breeding normal-leaved, elongated fruit cucumber is crossed with a curled-leaved, spherical fruit cucumber, what will be the phenotype of the F1? the phenotypic ratio of the F2?
