The predatory bacterium, Bdellovibrio bacteriophorus, drills into a prey bacterium and, once inside, digests it. In an attack up
on a gram-negative bacterium that has a slimy cell covering, what is the correct sequence of structures penetrated by B. bacteriophorus on its way to the prey's cytoplasm? 1. membrane composed mostly of lipopolysaccharide 2. membrane composed mostly of phospholipids 3. peptidoglycan 4. capsule
The cell wall of gram-negative bacteria is located outside the cell membrane and is composed of a single layer of peptidoglycan, followed by a second membrane composed of phospholipids (often called outer membrane) and finally a lipopolysaccharide layer, these three elements constitute the gram-negative envelope. Also, some bacteria produce a viscous secretion that spreads in the surrounding environment, forming a slime layer known as a capsule.
The human respiratory system contains the organs that allow us to get the oxygen we need and to remove the waste carbon dioxide we do not need. It contains these parts: two lungs. ... various structures in the chest that allow air to move in and out of the lungs.
A high-interest rate means the opportunity cost to built or buy a house is high it is a possible channel. So when the interest rate is higher, there may be fewer new housing starts. The abstract point-scoring task requires a minimal model that illustrates a plausible causal channel.
Substance abuse can spread STIs because when a user shares needles with an infected person, it can spread through the blood. Any high-risk behavior like this spreads STIs.
There are 12 total pairs of ribs. 1-7 are attached directly to the sternum by costal cartilages, making them true pairs. 8-10 are fake pairs, which means they're attached indirectly to the sternum. And 11 and 12 and free floating ribs, meaning they aren't attached.
