Answer / 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.

Answer / kk pandey
When a drug/chemical just Inhibit (stops) the growth of
bacteria but doesn't kill them,the drug is called
Bacteriostatic. (static = stop).
whereas...
When a drug/chemical totally 'Kills' the bacteria,the drug is
called Bacteriocidal.(Cidal = Kill).

In snapdragons tallness (T) is dominant to dwarfness (t). Red flowers are produced by RR and white flowers by rr but the heterozygous Rr is pink. A dwarf red snapdragon is crossed to a homozygous tall plant with white flowers. What is the phenotypic ratio of the F1? the F2?
steps involved in transcription
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.
In horses coat color is dependent upon genes as follows: A_B_ results in bay, aaB_ in black, A_bb in chestnut, aabb in liver. In addition, palimino is derived by Dd with chestnut. A palimono stallion (DdAAbb) is crossed with a palimino mare (DdAAbb). What percent of the offspring will be palimino?

What does it mean to say that an allele of one gene is epistatic to that of another?
People who can roll their tongues contain a dominant allele for tongue rolling. If people do not contain the tongue rolling gene, then they cannot roll their tongue no matter how hard they try. Consider the following situation: If a homozygous dominant tongue roller mates with a homozygous recessive non-tongue roller, then what is the probability of the offspring inheriting the tongue rolling gene?
