What charge does the oxygen atom have in a molecule of water

Biology
1 answer:
Afina-wow [57]3 years ago
6 0
The unequal sharing of electrons gives the water molecule a slight negative charge near its oxygen atom and a slight positive charge near its hydrogen atoms. When a neutral molecule has a positive area at one end and a negative area at the other, it is a polar molecule.

A microbiologist plated a bacterium on a specific medium. After incubation, she noted that the previously yellow medium was now
alexdok [17]

Answer:

A differential medium

Explanation:

Bacteria require nutrients for growth, and in order to culture (grow) them and study their characteristics, different types of media are used.

A selective media is used to grow a particular group of organism while suppressing another. So a selective media usually has an inhibitory agent, which will inhibit the growth of the undesired group. An antibiotic can be added to a medium to make it selective.

A general purpose medium as the name implies can be used to grow any group of bacteria. It has no inhibitory agent and indicator that differentiates between organisms. An example of general purpose media is nutrient agar .

A non-synthetic media is made from natural ingredients.

A differential media differentiates between groups of organisms. Example of differential media is MacConkey agar and Mannitol Salt agar. On MacConkey agar, lactose fermenting bacteria turn pink while non-lactose fermenting bacteria are colorless.

On Mannitol Salt agar, mannitol fermenting bacteria turn yellow while non-mannitol fermenting bacteria are colorless. Mannitol Salt agar is also a selective medium. It has a high salt concentration which inhibits certain organisms.

denis-greek [22]

Answer: specialized service

Explanation:

What is are amino acids????
Anon25 [30]

Amino acids are the monomers that make up proteins. Amino acids are made of a carboxyl group (Carbon, Oxygen, Hydrogen), an amino group (Nitrogen and two Hydrogen), and finally an R group which differs in each amino acid. That R group is what makes each amino acid different! They can also act as enzymes. Essentially enzymes act as biological catalysts and control the functions of the cell and build cells.
