a. What is an endospore? b. Describe its structure and function for a bacterial cell. c. Name at least two infections transmitted to humans by bacterial endospores and the bacteria (genus and species names) that cause them. What is the virus transmission, the morpho...
What is the purpose of the perichondrium? What is an endospore and what is/are its function/s? Why is insulin not given orally? What is the application (purpose) of MacConkey agar? Why are phylogenetic diagrams used by cladists? What purpose do they serve?
In a three-domain system, Bacteria is the largest domain. ( Living beings are classified intoArchae, Bacteria,andEukaryotadomain in the three-domain system.) Bacteria, a singular bacterium, is derived from the Ancient Greek word “backērion” meaning “cane”, as the first bacteria observed w...
What does an Endospore stain tell you? Endospore Staining is a technique used in bacteriology toidentify the presence of endospores in a bacterial sample, which can be useful for classifying bacteria. What diseases are diagnosed using the Gram stain procedure? Gram-positive infections includemethicill...
This study offers insight into a mechanism of cellular regulation found in organisms ranging from bacteria to humans, with exciting implications for microbiology, structural biology, enzymology and human disease. The breakthrough is also a testament to the ongoing $15 million expansion of advanced cryo...
this copy is calledmessenger RNA (mRNA). After the mRNA is copied it is taken to a small compartment called aribosome. In bacteria, the ribosome is made of two parts, a30S subunit(S here stands for svedberg, a unit of measurement that indicates how fast this particle moves in a centrifug...
How do clostridium bacteria differ in terms of bacteria characteristics from other kinds of bacteria, like enteric bacteria? Both can cause illness, and some species of both genuses are pathogenic. Also, they are both rod-shaped, for the most part, I think. ...
Bacteria: S. pneumonia Stain: Gram Stain Identify what the following bacteria would look like stained with the listed stain. Bacteria: S. pneumonia Stain: Negative Identify what the following bacteria would look like stained with the listed stain. Bacteria...
Endospores:Honey is antimicrobial in its “natural’ state. It’s about 17% water and the sugars chemically tie up the moisture, keeping wild yeast and bacteria from using it. Without ready-to-use moisture, the spores of yeast remain dormant, and an adult digestive system will not have any...
What infections do anaerobic bacteria cause to humans? What is the stimulus for endospore production in bacteria? What causes bacterial food poisoning? What is the deadliest disease to emerge from the Sundarbans? What does bacterial mating involve?
