A Norovirus can be considered as a 30 nm in diameter spherical particle, made of protein and DNA·The Noroviruses are known to be

highly infective. As few as 10 viruses are enough to cause infection in a human. a) Suppose that an infected individual releases 5 cm3 of fluid containing 10% of Noroviruses by volume. Calculate the number of Noroviruses in this sample and the number of humans that could be infected with these viruses. What percentage of the human population on Earth (assumed 7 billion) could be infected? b) Could the virus spread around and infect all these humans only by diffusion? Calculate the diffusion coefficient and the time needed for one virus to diffuse to a length of 1 meter at 20°C (viscosity of water being 1.0x103 kg m s)?

Rasek [7]

Answer:

C.Both Gram positive and Gram negative cells would appear purple.

Explanation:

Gram staining is a technique used to differentiate bacteria to two main groups based on their difference in cell wall components.

Crystal violet, decolorizer(ethanol) and a counter stain are used.

Gram positive bacteria have a thicker peptidoglycan layer hence they will retain the crystal Violet stain even after decolorization. They will stain purple

Gram negative will stain pink due to losing the initial stain and taking up the counter stain after decolorization.

Therefore, if water is used instead of ethanol. Both bacteria will retain crystal violet stain in their cell wall.

hi i am on the student board committee at my school and I'm having to ask people their thoughts on the LGBT+ community i have to
-BARSIC- [3]
Supporting the LGBTQ+ community is important because queer people can't choose their circumstances. It's not their fault that they're the way they are (not that it's bad). It also helps to decrease suicide rates, due to the fact that they seem more accepted. Aside from the fact that I am bisexual, I think that it's important to judge a person for who they are, not gender dysmorphia or sexuality.
