A. During exponential growth, cell number rises geometrically.B. Generation time is the time for a population to double.C. A chemostat can maintain steady-state growth.D. Sterilization means merely reducing microbial load slightly.
Correct Answer: A|B|C
Explanation:
Sterilization aims to eliminate viable microorganisms.
A. A thermostable DNA polymerase is used.B. Primers define the amplified region.C. Denaturation separates DNA strands.D. Translation occurs during each PCR cycle.
Correct Answer: A|B|C
Explanation:
PCR amplifies DNA; it does not translate RNA into protein.
A. Vmax increases with enzyme concentration under otherwise fixed conditions.B. Km has concentration units in Michaelis–Menten kinetics.C. A competitive inhibitor can increase apparent Km.D. Every inhibitor permanently destroys the enzyme.
