Answer:

By the observation, the rod shape violet-colored bacteria could be a Gram-positive bacillus which is <em>Lactobacillus spp</em>.  in curd.

Explanation:

Gram-stain is a staining method to isolate and study the Gram-positive or Gram-negative bacteria with the help of the crystal violet dye. Crystal violet dye stains both Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria in purple stain. After decolorization, Gram-negative bacteria appears to be pink in color, however,Gram-positive bacteria remain purple.

According to bacteria structure, they term as bacillus (rod), strepto (clusters or threads) or Diplo (in pairs).

Thus, according to the observation, the rod shape violet colored bacteria are Gram-positive bacillus which is <em>Lactobacillus spp</em>. in curd.

Please help ASAP! Describe at least one way in which each of Earth’s subsystems was altered during the Precambrian era.
trasher [3.6K]

The Precambrian era envelopes the major bulk of the history of the Earth, beginning from the creation of the planet approx 4.5 billion years ago and terminating with the origination of composite, multicelled forms of life approximately 4 billion years after.

The Precambrian refers to the earliest of the geologic ages that are signified by the distinct layers of sedimentary rock. The Earth was about more than six hundred million years old when life started. The planet had cooled down from its native molten state, creating a solid crust and oceans formed by water vapor in the atmosphere.

At about three billion years ago, the atmosphere of the Earth was virtually devoid of oxygen. At approximately 2.4 billion years ago, oxygen was discharged from the seas as a waste product of photosynthesis by cyanobacteria. The levels of the gas slowly raised, attaining about 1 percent around two billion years ago.

Approximately 800 million years ago, the levels of oxygen attained about 21 percent and started to breathe life into more composite species. The oxygen-rich ozone layer was also created, protecting the surface of the Earth from the harmful solar radiation.
