Transcribed Image Text:Complete the following tasks. You discovered that a species of bacteria can break down StyrofoamT (polystyrene) products due to an enzyme it produces, polystyrenase. You wish to study the gene that codes for this enzyme. Task 1: DNA Extraction To begin work on the bacterium, you begin by extracting its genomic DNA (GDNA). What is the purpose of the following procedures? Answer briefly but completely. Using sodium dodecyl sulfate, a detergent Answer: а. b. Adding RNase A and Proteinase K during extraction Answer: c. Adding ethanol before recovering the DNA extract С. Answer: Task 2: Polymerase Chain Reaction After purifying the gDNA extract, you want to isolate and amplify the polystyrenase gene. You perform PCR using the appropriate gene-targeted primers. What is the purpose of the following PCR components? Answer briefly but completely. DNA polymerase isolated from Thermus aquaticus Answer: а. b. Deoxynucleotide triphosphates (DNTPS) Answer: С. Forward and…

In paragraph form, you should describe what you found. This is not the place to interpret results, save that for the conclusion.
your narrative explanation of your results should refer to the figures. These figures should be numbered(even if there's only one) and display summary data(mean and error), not raw data. The figure caption should be in the text under each figure and briefly describe what you're showing.
THANK YOU!

Observing Bacteria in Colonies
In fresh or saltwater habitats, cyanobacteria will appear (without a microscope) as very
small green lines (as can be seen in this video). Observe the following images of
cyanobacteria colonies under 100x and 400x magnification with a light microscope:
Anabaena sp. 100x magnification
Anabaena sp. 400x magnification
As you can see, cyanobacteria grow as two different types of cells: those that are
photosynthetic (fixing carbon dioxide to make sugars), and heterocysts (that fix nitrogen to
make proteins and nucleic acids). Although these cells are genetically identical, each is
able to accomplish this via differences in gene expression, a key concept in biology you will
continue exploring this quarter. In the 400x magnification image, you should be able to
clearly see two…

Purpose
Solve the identity of an unknown bacterial specimen by creating a dichotomous key and using the staining, culturing and biochemical identification procedures you have learned about during the semester.
Possible Organisms
Alcaligenes faecalis
Enterobacter aerogenes
Enterococcus faecalis
Escherichia coli
Proteus vulgaris
Pseudomonas aeruginosa
Salmonella arizoniae
Staphylococcus aureus
Staphylococcus epidermidis
Staphylococcus saprophyticus
Streptococcusbovis
Streptococcus pyogenes
You must write up your OWN dichotomous key for all the possible unknown organisms listed on above. Writing this key requires you use the same type of reasoning used in the Dichotomous key lab. The first step of the key will be the Gram Stain. Subsequent steps will include biochemical tests only.
Please help me with this question.
Thank you so much !

This is a typical lab exam question. (Problem-solving, uses current topic.)Your TA performed the antibiotic disc experiment using supplies from their research lab. The antibiotic discs had the year 2002 written on their containers.Your TA grew a pure culture of unknown bacteria. They applied the culture to a fresh agar plate and applied the 2002 antibiotic discs to the plate and incubated it for growth. They found that the mystery bacteria species was resistant to all three antibiotic discs that were applied to the plate.Are there any control groups that could be used to confirm or refute this multi-drug resistance? Describe them.

Biomimetic Engineering of Nanodelivery Systems: Artificial Viruses in the Making
In an effort to engineer the next generation of nanoscale vectors, scientists have moved from using inorganic components aimed at obtaining inert structures to utilizing biological building blocks that are able to convey additional functionalities to the resulting construct. To cope with the complexity of the body and to evade the multiple layers of defense that tissues and organs have, it is critical to rely on the ability of certain materials to interact with, rather than to eschew, the biology of our body. Every NP system conceived to date faces one common fate: whether injected,…
