n a micro lab there are various staining procedures, different microscopes, and media that are used to grow, test, and view microbes. Imagine you are a microbiologist explaining an aspect of the prokaryote and how to work with it in the lab. The options for discussion are endless, its just a matter of tying the two topics together. For example: for an acid fast cell wall requires a specialized stain, and then a microscope to view.

Hi can I get help on this microbiology question please? I am stuck and do not understand it. Thank you A prokaryotic cell hitched a ride to Earth on a space shuttle from some unknown planet. Microbiologists studied the microorganism and concluded it is a psychrophile, an obligate halophile, and an obligate aerobe. 1. Based on the characteristics of the microorganism described in this case, describe at least three characteristics that the unknown planet where the microorganism lived before must have so that it can survive in it. 2. Explain the following microbial characteristics or terms in complete sentences: psychrophile. obligate halophile. obligate aerobe.
