Most antibiotics work in one of two ways. They are either cell wall inhibitors of protein synthesis inhibitors. Classify the following characteristics to describe each. Some answers may be used more than once.

a) Cell Wall Inhibitors or b) Protein Synthesis Inhibitors

1. Has no impact on eukaryotic cells
2. Include penicillins and other beta-lactam drugs
3. Inhibit the growth of bacteria
4. Block the production of peptidoglycan during cell division, preventing the cell from dividing successfully
5. Cause the shape of the ribosomal subunits to change, resulting in the cell's inability to make proteins
6. Inhibit bacterial cell division

Which term best describes a community in which people work mostly in factories? a.agricultural. b.hunting and gathering. c.domesticated. industrial.

You decide that the introduction should also discuss the extremophiles that are referred to as the archaea. these single-cell organisms are considered "extremophiles" due to their ability to survive and reproduce in environmental conditions that would be hostile for most living organisms. archaea species have been isolated from highly acidic sulfur springs, ocean floor thermal vents with temperatures that exceed boiling, and subarctic ice well below freezing. while still considered to be prokaryotic, the archaea have numerous differences that place them apart from the bacteria. choose the characteristics that separate the archaea from other prokaryotic cells. select all that apply. view available hint(s) select all that apply. archaea lack true peptidoglycan in their cell walls. the morphology of the cell is rigid and is geometric in shape, similar to a sphere or cylinder. the cytoplasmic membrane lipids of archaea have branched or ringform hydrocarbon chains. all currently identified and characterized archaea have been linked as the causative agent to an animal or human disease.

Monomers are the building blocks of larger molecules, called polymers. for example, proteins are composed of chains of amino acids that are linked together. cellulose is a polymer that makes up plant cell walls. cellulose is made from a chain of c6h10o5 molecules. which monomers are most likely used to produce cellulose? why?
