According to your own understanding, what do you think makes bacteria some of the most common disease-causing organisms in aquaculture? Explain comprehensively
Would microbiology have developed more slowly if Fanny Hesse had not suggested the use of agar? Give your reasoning.
In a campus-wide screen for microbes, you find DNA from the bacterial species that causes the bubonic plague, Yersinia pestis. You take the sample back to the lab, and try to grow (very carefully), but can't culture the organism. Provide two possible explanations for why you can't grow this sample in the lab.

- Which statement correctly describes the differences between sterilization and sanitation? Sterlization removes pathogenic microbes, while sanitation removes all microbes. Sterilization removes all microbes from a surface, while sanitation removes most microbes. Sterilization is used for instruments and tools, while sanitation is used for consumable products. Sterilization reduces the total microbe count, while sanitation reduces the only harmful microbe count.arrow_forwardexplain why the invention of solid culture media was of great importance to the development of microbiology as a sciencearrow_forwardWhat statement describes the danger of using heavy metals to control microbe growth? Group of answer choices Heavy metals promote biofilm formation in humans. Heavy metals stimulate some microbes to reproduce even more. Heavy metals can assist with virus attachment to host cells. Heavy metals are toxic to many organisms besides microbes.arrow_forward
- Which statement describes how phenolic compounds control microbe growth? They cause protein unfolding and disruption of cell membranes. They inhibit carbohydrate metabolism. They cause denaturing of the DNA. They block phospholipid synthesis so new membranes cannot be formed. They block reproduction by binary fission.arrow_forwardWhat is the significance of Pasteur’s experiment to test the germ hypothesis? a. It proved that heat can sterilize a broth. b. It demonstrated that cells can arise spontaneously. c. It demonstrated that some cells are germs. d.
