"Scientists will often grow bacteria in prepared petri dishes. In some experiments, the petri dish will also contain paper disks

soaked in a particular antibiotic. The area where the bacteria do not grow is called the zone of inhibition, or ZOI. The diameter of the ZOI indicates the effectiveness of the antibiotic.
The ZOI data collected by one scientist while trying to determine which disk (A, B, C, or D) is most effective at killing Streptococcus bacteria are: Disk D–9 mm, Disk B–8 mm, Disk C–0 mm.

determine the diameter in millimeters (mm) of the ZOI for antibiotic disk A shown below"

I think you forgot to post the picture needed for the question. However, after some research I found it online. The picture should show a circle with areas for bacteria growth, area of no growth (ZOI) , and antibiotic disc A. The diameter in mm of the ZOI for disk A will be 13 mm.

QveST [7]

Answer:

24 million years

A: GCACTAAGCATCGATTT

B: GCACCAGGCACTGGTTC

There are 6 base pair changes between species A and species B. Since we know the rate of change is 1 base pair every 4 million years, we know 6x 4 million is likely how long ago the species diverged. 6x 4 million = 24 million years

The rigid layer that is present in the cell walls of bacteria that is primarily responsible for the strength of the wall is know
melomori [17]
The substance that helps keep the integrity of the bacterial cell wall intact is known as the peptidoglycan. Others also refer to is it as murein or mucopeptide. The bacterial cell wall is necessary for survival because of the high internal pressure present inside of bacteria. Under normal conditions, if the cell wall is removed the bacterial cell will burst.

The peptidoglycan is a layer that can be used to distinguish gram positive bacteria from gram negative ones. G(+) bacteria have a thick layer of this while G(-) have a thinner ones.
