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.

The cell walls of bacteria are composed of peptidoglycan O d. Peptidoglycan is found mainly in the cell walls of fungi, algae and plants
Penicillin inhibits bacterial growth by preventing the cross-linking during peptidoglycan synthesis. Why does penicillin not inhibit growth of archaeal cells? Group of answer choices Most archaeal cells have a cell wall, but it is not composed of peptidoglycan. Archaeal cells do not have a cell wall. Penicillin is unable to penetrate the lipid outer membrane that blocks access of penicillin to the peptidogycan crosslinking enzymes. Pencillin is unable to penetrate the S layer to reach the peptidoglycan layer underneath.
Different types of bacteria are found inbiofilm. Bacteria with oxygen respiration are found at the surface, further down there are anaerobic bacteria. Why is it that you find other bacteria that doesnt need oxygen
Which of the following is NOT a true statement about bacterial structure and function? A. Bacteria can have membrane-enclosed organelles such as mitochondria or chloroplasts B. Bacteria have a single circular chromosome made of double-stranded DNA C. Bacterial cell walls are made of a substance called peptidoglycan D. Bacterial flagella rotate to propel the cell E. Some bacteria have a capsule surrounding the cell, made of a sticky polysaccharide or protein
We put everything in our mouth since our childhood. Therefore our mouth is full of live bacteria. These bacteria are potentially dangerous if they cross our gut wall into our blood circulation. Fortunately we are protected from them by our gut's mucosal lining and the cells (macrophages, dendritic cells, B and T lymphocytes) in the lymphoid tissue called [a] (enter two words). This structure play a crucial role for the development of food tolerance or food [b] (enter one word), coeliac disease and chronic inflammatory bowel disease.
