This is the day to day problem of a medical microbiology laboratory: the "tube containing a liquid nutrient medium" in the real world could, for example, represent blood culture bottles (aerobic or anaerobic). The basic process is as follows: a loop is first flamed to ensure sterility and then used to transfer a small portion of bacterial-laden liquid media to the agar medium by streaking it across the surface of a sterile petri dish. The dish is then covered, inverted, and placed in an appropriate incubator. When colonies begin to form on the surface of the agar plate, individual colonies can be taken up using the sterile loop for analysis or further propagation. The assumption is that a single colony represents growth from a single bacterium.

Consider a culture medium on which only gram- positive organisms such as Staphylococcus aureus colonies can grow due to an eleva
Anon25 [30]

Answer: It is a selective and differential medium.

Explanation: Selective medium is used to select the growth of certain bacteria whilst inhibiting the growth of another by preparing a medium with ingredients that will only select a specific growth of intended microbe. When closely related bacteria had been selected, they can further be differentiated by the way they utilize the medium. In this case staphylococcus aureus was first selected using sodium chloride with which only this bacteria can tolerate i.e halophilic (strives in salty environment). It was also further differentiated by its ability to ferment sugars changing the colour of the pH indicator chemical.

Penicillin is an antibiotic drug that interferes with peptidoglycan synthesis in bacteria, eventually resulting in cell death. W
EastWind [94]

Since penicillin interferes with peptidoglycan synthesis, it means that the drug will have no effects on archaea.

<h3>Archaea cell walls</h3>

The cell wall of archaea consists mostly of polysaccharides and glycoconjugates. In order words, the cell walls of archaea lack peptidoglycan.

Since penicillin kills bacteria by interfering with the synthesis of peptidoglycan, it simply means that the drug will have no effect on archaea, since they do not have peptidoglycan in their cell walls.
