The question is incomplete as it does not have the option which are:

-acid-fast

-DAPI

-lipo

-Gram

Answer:

Acid-fast  staining

Explanation:

Acid-fast staining is the technique used to stain and identify the species of the mycobacterium.

During the acid-fast staining, the carbolfuchsin stain is used to color the bacteria as carbolfuchsin solubilizes the lipid of the bacterial wall and the pink stain enters the cell. When these cells are treated with the methylene blue counterstain, the mycobacterium due to the presence of thick cell wall does not allow the entry of the methylene blue as a result of which they appear red o pink.

Thus, acid-fast staining is correct.

Complete the flowchart to identify the process by which blue-light photoreceptors and auxin control phototropism in plants.
DaniilM [7]
In plant seeds, the photoreceptor phytochrome is responsible for the process termed photomorphogenesis<span>. This occurs when a seed initially situated in an environment of complete darkness is exposed to light. A brief exposure to electromagnetic radiation, particularly that whose wavelength is within the red and far-red lights, results in the activation of the photorecepter phytochrome within the seed. This in turn sends a signal through the signal transduction pathway into the nucleus, and triggers hundreds of genes responsible for growth and development</span>

Marat540 [252]

Answer:

c. reabsorbing hydrogen

Explanation:

In this scenario, the individual's kidneys will do all of the following except for reabsorbing hyrdogen. This is because, in a scenario like this where the body pH levels decline the kidneys begin to secrete hydrogen, they do not reabsorb it. It is this process of acid elimination that ultimately causes the body's pH levels to begin rising and restoring themselves to normal. Therefore the answer to this question is c.
