Answer: elastic fibers
Explanation:
Elastic fibres are the essential durable component present in mammalian connective tissueand functions to provide proper pulmonary, cardiovascular and intestinal system structure and function. Their structural function is to provide elastic recoil and resilience for the tissues.
Elastin fibers ahve two main including microfibrils and elastin containing fibrillin play a mechanical and structural role in the arteries, and their important function is to provide the tissues with resilience and elasticity.
Hence, elastic fibers helps arteries to adapt to changes in blood pressures that accompany the heartbeat.
As the amount of sunlight we see reflected increases, it is called WAXING.
The EMB (Eosin Methylene Blue) agar is a selective and differential agar medium. It contains sucrose and lactose as fermentable substrates together with Eosin Y and methylene blue dyes which in combination gives the agar its characteristic color when prepared and serves as a pH indicator as well as an inhibitor of growth of Gram-positive bacteria. Hence, it is primarily used to isolate Gram-negative fecal coliforms while some positive fecal coliforms such as Staphylococci are also able to grow.
These coliforms are of two types:
- Lactose or sucrose fermenting coliforms form metallic sheens on the agar as a result of acid production and the response of the indicator to the increased acidity.
- Non-lactose/sucrose fermenters are only able to produce acid by protein deamination. Hence they either form colorless or pinkish colonies on the agar
On the other hand, Mannitol salt agar is a selective and differential agar medium that is primarily used to isolate Staphylococcal bacteria. The presence of sodium chloride in the medium makes it a partial or complete inhibitor of other bacteria.
Hence, an unknown bacterium that forms colorless colonies on EMB will either be a non-lactose fermenting, Gram-negative coliform that will hardly grow on Mannitol salt agar, or a Gram-positive fecal Staphylococcus.
Staphylococci bacteria are of two types:
- Coagulase-positive will form yellow colonies on the Mannitol salt agar.
- Coagulase-negative will form red colonies on the Mannitol salt agar.

The answer would be, "C", "Plants".
Acid-fast bacteria or acid-fast bacilli can be defined as the group of bacteria that have the ability to resist their decolonization by the acids which are used during the staining process.
An infection that is caused due to an acid-fast organism indicates that the individual is suffering from Tuberculosis or other myobacterial diseases.
An acid-fast bacteria has many protective and invasive techniques which makes the infection difficult to treat, and thus, long-term course of antibiotics is needed for the treatment of such infections.
