A microbe cannot grow without using enzymes. Explain why bacteria are limited to growth within a given temperature range. Explain why bacteria are limited in growth within a specific pH range.
An aquatic microbe that can grow only near the surface of the water is probably which of the following? a chemotroph a phototroph a heterotroph an anaerobe a lithotroph
Answer the question briefly and concisely. The Mannitol salt agar (MSA) only allows the growth of halophiles (salt-loving microbes);nonhalophiles will not grow. Among the halophiles, mannitol fermenters will produce acid that turnsthe pH indicator yellow; mannitol nonfermenters leave the medium red. Onto MSA you inoculate ahalophilic mannitol fermenter and a halophilic mannitol nonfermenter. In this case, the medium isacting as (a) __________ medium(s).A. SelectiveB. DifferentialC. Selective and differentialD. Enriched

organism which take carbondioxide as a chemical source is known as Select one: a. photoautotrophs b. chemoautotrophs c. chemoheterotrophs d. photoheterotrophs
Compare and contrast the action of alcohols, halogens, and oxidizing agents in controlling microbial growth.
You find yourself in a deep dark cave in a karstic environment and it smells like rotten eggs. In a stream you find white filaments that look like they could be microbes. You quickly realize that your shoes are being quickly damaged by the stream water that causes major irritation to your skin. Unfortunately, you do not have a pH meter and you can't really test the pH. 1. Please identify potential sources of energy, electron and carbon for these microbes. 2. What could be a possible terminal electron acceptor? 3. Name these organisms using nomenclature. 4. What could be the pH of the stream water?
Requires oxygen at a lower concentration than typically found in air. Question 3 options: a) Obligate aerobe b) Facultative anaerobe c) microaerophile d) None of the above
select a microbe that has proven to be either environmentally or socially beneficial to human beings. You are not restricted to bacteria, but the organism chosen must be considered a microbe. In your post, include an explanation of the microbe's discovery, its use (either environmentally or socially), and its normal habitat. You should cite your research
