Cultures of a bacterial species were incubated on the shelf of a refrigerator (5 C), out on a lab bench top (22 C), on the shelf

of a 37 C incubator, and on the shelf of a 50 C incubator. After incubation, there was no growth at 37 C and 50 C, slight growth in the refrigerator, and abundant growth on the lab bench top. What term could be used for this species?
A) halophile
B) mesophile
C) anaerobe
D) psychrotroph

D) Psychrotrophs.

Explanation:

  • Psychrotrophs are those bacteria which can tolerate cold temperature and have optimum growth above 15 degree Celsius.
  • Halophiles prefer high salt concentration.
  • Mesophiles prefer temperatures with a average of 37 degree Celsius.
  • Anaerobes grow in absence of oxygen.
  • In the given experiment, none of the bacterial cultures were placed in saline or anaerobic conditions. So, the bacterial species is not an anaerobe or halophile.
  • Again the cultures did not show growth at 37 degree celsius so they are not mesophiles.
  • Maximum growth at 22 degree celsius and a little growth in refrigerator make it obvious that the species is a Psychrotroph.

arrange the process of hemostasis in sequence. (separate letters by a comma and space [ex. a, b, c,…])
Nina [5.8K]

The sequence for the process of hemostasis is A, F, B, C, D, E.

<h3>What is Hemostasis?</h3>

Your body's natural response to an injury, hemostasis, stops the bleeding and repairs the damage. This skill typically works to your advantage by preserving blood and avoiding infections. The process can occasionally malfunction, leading to issues with excessive or insufficient clotting. There are four distinct steps to the hemostasis mechanism.

1) Blood vessel constriction.

2) The development of a transient "platelet plug."

3) The coagulation cascade is activated.

4) The last clot, or "fibrin plug," forms.

A series of enzymatic activations that result in the development of a clot containing platelets and fibrin polymer are made easier by hemostasis. While the process of tissue regeneration is taking place, this clot plugs the wounded area, manages the bleeding, and stops further bleeding.

Phagocytes are unable to adhere to bacteria that have external capsules concealing their membrane carbohydrates. Our immune syst
ludmilkaskok [199]

Answer:

The correct answer is c) opsonins

Explanation:

Opsonization is a process in which proteins like antibodies and complement proteins called opsonins bind to the antigens and get it recognized by the phagocyted which destroys the antigen.

Especially when bacteria is having external capsule than it becomes difficult for phagocytes to attach to the capsular surface as the recognition molecule like membrane carbohydrate of antigen is concealed by capsule.

So to encounter this, antibodies like IgG and complement proteins like C3b attaches to the antigen and get it recognized and opsonized by the phagocytes like macrophages. This opsonization causes the destruction of antigen by enzymatic lysis.
