Many antibiotics interfere with the transfer of genetic information from X to Y, preventing bacteria from growing. Y is a polymer of Z. X has ribose sugar in its composition. Identify X, Y, and Z. Name the process that is affected by antibiotics here. X, Y, Z and the process are respectively:
RNA, Protein, Amino acids, Translation
DNA, Protein, Amino acids, Transcription
RNA, Protein, Amino acids, Transcription
RNA, Amino acids, Proteins, Translation
Sensitivity to outliers
Sensitivity to centroid initialization
Non-convergence
Some of the output clusters can be non-convex.
