Answer:

The culture might not be stained properly or the culture might be too old.

Explanation:

Gram staining is done to differentiate between gram-positive and gram-negative bacteria according to the difference in their cell wall. In gram staining, the gram-positive bacteria appears violet and gram-negative bacteria appear pink in color.

Therefore if a pure culture contains have both red and purple cocci that it can be concluded that the gram stating was not done properly like too much destaining was done or too much safranin was used or maybe the culture is too old so that cell wall of some bacteria degrades.

Are there any similarities between this Galapagos research and Darwin’s research? Explain your answer.
Usimov [2.4K]

Answer: This modern-day researcher used some of the same theories that Darwin proposed. Like Darwin and his finches and tortoises, this scientist understood that the Galapagos cormorants inherited flightless wings. Darwin eventually discovered that his Galapagos finches likely evolved from other species of finches on the mainland. This evolution was similar to how the flightless Galapagos cormorants evolved from other species of cormorants.

biologists is studying two species of lizards in a mountainous region. The two species are separated by habitat with one species
ivann1987 [24]

Answer:

Valley lizard = Oviparous

Mountain lizard = Viviparous

Explanation:

In Darwin's theory survival of the fittest, he believed species adapt or change within their environment. So I believe lizards living in a valley would be more safe to lay their eggs but lizards living in the mountains would be viviparous because of the non-predicted and unsafe environment which could harm the better chances of development of the offspring.
