In the petri dish in Figure 1, the bacteria Esherichia coli (E. coli) was grown and treated with disks soaked in different substances. Disk A was soaked in hand sanitizer, Disk B left untreated and Disk C was soaked in bleach The Independent Variable from the above scenario would be: O the growth of the E. Coli O the zone of inhibition O the type of substance O the size of the disk

Bacteria produce two kinds of toxins: endotoxins and exotoxins.Whereas endotoxins are _____, exotoxins are _____.a. part of the bacterium; chemicals that diffuse out of the bacteriumb. injected into the host cell; secreted onto the surface of the host cellc. chemicals that target the host’s digestive tract; chemicals thattarget the host’s outer covering (e.g., skin)d. released while the bacterium is alive; released when the bacteriumdies
Why may some bacteria use extracellular enzymes to form blood clots? View Available Hint(s) for Part H The blood clots are a necessary food source for the bacteria. Blood clot can hide bacteria from the immune system. A blood clot leads to tissue necrosis or death, a necessary condition for infection. The blood clots cause disease, which is the intended purpose of the bacteria.
TSA plates of microorganisms grown at 30°C or 37°C In words, describe the differences you see for each organism (E. coli M.,luteus ,S. marcescens and S. saprophyticus) grown at 30°C or 37°C (ie, amount of growth, color, etc
A microbiology student was given a mixed culture of two different gram positive bacteria species to grow into a culture medium using correct aseptic techniques. After two days,one gram positive bacterial species grew on the media and the growth appeared red on the surface of the medium. Tthe second gram positive bacterial species grew and the growth appeared yellow on the surface of the medium. What is the possible explanation for the differences in the color of the bacterial growth? A. the culture was contaminated B. the microbiologist put too much inoculum on the culture medium C. the medium was a selective medium D. the medium was differential
A sample of raw ground beef initially contained 25 E. Coli bacteria. After six hours, there are 102 400 cells in the sample. What is the growth rate of the E. coli population? Show all work. Express your answer using scientific notation in the form of xyz 10 d #bacteria/hr.
Researchers are designing several experiments to test the ability of Salmonella bacteria to develop antibiotic resistance. A culture of Salmonella bacteria is exposed to the same concentrations (200 mg/L) of an antibiotic for four days. The table shows the number of isolated resistant bacteria over a four-day period. Which of the following statements best explains these results? Day Number of Resistant Bacteria in the Culture 1 5 2 59 3 677 4 32,456 The bacteria were not affected by the antibiotic. After being exposed to the antibiotic, the bacteria altered the antibiotic. A new species of bacteria emerged after the antibiotics were introduced. Random mutations led some bacteria to be resistant and, over time, they increased in the population.
Below is a diagram of four different antibiotics (numbered 1-4) that are being tested in a petri dish inoculated with bacteria. After a sufficient incubation period, bacterial growth occurred except in the zones of inhibition (shown with dotted lines in the diagram) around the antibiotics. Based on the results shown here, would it be reasonable to conclude that the most effective antibiotic in this example would be an effective antibiotic against any bacterium? Why or why not?

The Shower from the Green Lagoon! Joey notices that his shower is covered in a strange green film. Chandler tells him that in order to remove the slime you use one cup of bleach mixed with four cups of water. Joey decides to try this out by spraying half of his shower with the mystery solution and the other half with just water. They borrow Monica and Rachel’s shower so they do not disturb the solution. After 3 days, the side with the solution looks less green Which shower side is the control group? What is the independent variable? What is the dependent variable? What should Joey’s conclusion be?
