Answer:
In acid-fast staining, carbon fuchsin is used as a primary stain which dissolves the mycolic acid present in the cell wall of <em>Mycobacterium smegmatis </em>and penetrates through it which results in staining <em>Mycobacterium</em> red.
Staphylococcus aureus cell wall does not contain mycolic acid so carbon fuchsin does not penetrate its cell wall, therefore, it becomes colorless after destaining with acid alcohol.
After destaining step methylene blue is added to stain non-acid-fast bacteria blue. So if I mistakenly forgot to use methylene blue during the procedure <em>Mycobacterium smegmatis</em> will appear red due to carbon fuchsin present in their cell wall and S<em>taphylococcus aureus</em> will appear colorless because it is destained.
Answer:
D. Codominance
Explanation:
Codominance is when both alleles are expressed with the resulting phenotype being the intermediate of the two. For example, red and white phenotypes results to a pink one.
Cell membranes help organisms maintain homeostasis by controlling what substances may enter or leave cells
Question: Many molecules are moved through the body by?
Answer:<u> The molecules are moved through the body by uses special transport proteins to move molecules across the membrane that cannot pass thorough on their own. Usually large molecules. Carrier proteins blind and carry the molecules across the cell membrane. They provide an open channel of passageway through the cell membrane for molecules to move across.</u>

Answer: Below
Explanation:
Alligators play an important role in maintaining ecosystem balance. Sitting at the top of the food chain, alligators are top predators and help keep other animal populations in balance. By digging holes and leaving trails throughout marshes, they create habitats for fish and marine invertebrates
