Answer:
a. do not immediately increase in number when placed in a culture
Explanation:
When bacteria placed in a new culture it shows a pattern of growth which is known as sigmoid growth. It has four phases lag, log, stationary, and death.
The lag phase occurs because bacteria do not start dividing immediately just after the placed in the new culture media because bacteria first adapt to the new environment and prepare enzymes needed for metabolizing the new substrate.
As the bacteria pass this lag phase it starts to divide at an exponential rate. Therefore it is true that most bacteria do not increase in number immediately after placed in a new culture.
Answer:
Break down existing clots.
Explanation:
A 70-year-old resident of a long-term care facility has experienced increasing pain, swelling, and redness to her lower leg over the past 12 hours, prompting the care providers at the facility to have the woman brought to the local emergency department.

Answer:
A. Yersinia Pestis
Explanation:
Yersinia Pestis is a bacterium which is anaerobic and can infect humans.
The Bubonic plague is caused by a bacterium (Yersinia Pestis). After coming into contact with the bacterium, symptoms begin to present themselves within one to seven days. These symptoms are typically flu-like (fevers, headaches and vomiting). In addition, swelling might occur at the lymph nodes closest to the area where the bacteria entered the skin.
The Pneumonic plague is also caused by the Yersinia Pestis bacterium and presents itself as a severe lung infection. Similar to the Bubonic plague, the symptoms can take between one and seven days to start showing (fevers, headaches, coughing, shortness of breath).
