Answer:
The agent causing the pneumonia, where bluish-green pus was found, is most likely Pseudomonas aeruginosa.
Explanation:
Pseudomona aeuriginosa is a gram-negative bacteria that is one of the main causes of hospital-acquired infections, including pneumonias in mechanically ventilated patients.
One of the characteristics of P. aeuriginosa is the formation of a bluish-green pus, since it has the capacity to form cyanide-based blue pigment upon contact with the organic tissues it infects. This is the reason why previously P. aeruginosa was called a pyocyanic bacillus.
<em> The other options are not correct because the only bacterium that produces blue-green pus is P. aeruginosa.</em>

Answer:
D) the cell appears to be in a rectangular shape and has a cell wall
Explanation:
animal cells don't have cell walls
Explanation:
1. cell membranes are partialy permeable, only allowing passage to some certain molecules.
2. diffusion is the movement of molecules across partially permeable membrane down concentration gradient.
3. the molecules are too big to pass through partially permeable membrane. the concentration of the molecule might be higher in the cell than in the solution/surroundings.
