Answer:

Natural Selection is an evolutionary process that caused the increment of dark-coloured Biston betularia moths in England. It happened due to increase of air pollution in the industries. The bark of the trees became darker because of the deposition of pollutants.

In order to save itself from predators, the species of Biston betularia evolved itself to a dark coloured species so that the predators gets confused between the bark of the tree and the Biston betularia.

You INCORRECTLY perform an acid-fast stain on a smear from a mixed culture of Mycobacterium smegmatis (acid-fast) cells and Stap
Dahasolnce [82]

Answer:

In acid-fast staining, carbon fuchsin is used as a primary stain which dissolves the mycolic acid present in the cell wall of <em>Mycobacterium smegmatis </em>and penetrates through it which results in staining <em>Mycobacterium</em> red.

Staphylococcus aureus cell wall does not contain mycolic acid so carbon fuchsin does not penetrate its cell wall, therefore, it becomes colorless after destaining with acid alcohol.

After destaining step methylene blue is added to stain non-acid-fast bacteria blue. So if I mistakenly forgot to use methylene blue during the procedure <em>Mycobacterium smegmatis</em> will appear red due to carbon fuchsin present in their cell wall and S<em>taphylococcus aureus</em> will appear colorless because it is destained.
