Difference between gram positive and gram negative bacteria

Biology
1 answer:
yarga [219]4 years ago
5 0

Danish scientist Hans Christian Gram devised a method to differentiate two types of bacteria based on the structural differences in their cell walls. In his test, bacteria that retain the crystal violet dye do so because of a thick layer of peptidoglycan and are called Gram-positive bacteria. In contrast, Gram-negative bacteria do not retain the violet dye and are colored red or pink. Compared with Gram-positive bacteria, Gram-negative bacteria are more resistant against antibodies because of their impenetrable cell wall. These bacteria have a wide variety of applications ranging from medical treatment to industrial use and Swiss cheese production.

How can a rise in temperature cause a change in a polar ecosystem
Dvinal [7]

Sea levels would rise.

Increase in temperature (for example due to global warming) increases the rate of melting of polar ice.

Consequently, the sea levels of the polar ecosystem would increase.

In addition, the melting of the ice caps also increases the temperature of the water in the oceans. As a result, the water expands which also increases the sea levels.
