Consider a culture medium on which only gram-positive organisms such as Staphylococcus aureus colonies can grow due to an elevat

ed NaCl level. A yellow halo surrounds the growth, indicating the bacterium fermented a sugar in the medium, decreasing the pH as a result and changing the color of a pH indicator chemical. This type of medium would be referred to as a(n):______
a) enrichment culture.
b) differential and enrichment culture.
c) selective and differential medium.
d) selective median.

Answer:

C) Selective and differential medium.

Explanation:

Selective Medium:

A media contains specific ingredients which are required to promote the growth of microorganism and inhibit the other microorganisms to grow is called selective medium.

Differential Medium:

A media contains specific ingredients which differentiate the same group organisms or closely related organisms is called differential medium.

NaCl is used in media to promote the growth of Staphylococcus aureus and inhibit the growth of other gram positive and negative bacteria.

A yellow halo color shows the bacterial fermentation of sugar which will distinguish Staphylococcus aureus with other strains.

So, it will be selective and differential medium which will allow to grow Staphylococcus aureus and differentiate with other bacteria.

A single celled paramedic is placed in a hypotonic solution.what will happen to the cell?​
Gnesinka [82]

When a single celled paramedic is placed in a hypotonic solution, the cell swells and then bursts.

<h3><u>Explanation:</u></h3>

Hypotonic solutions are the solutions that contain more water than present in a cell. Hence, when an animal cell is placed in a hypotonic solution, the cell will undergo osmosis. Osmosis is the movement of any form of solvent through a plasma membrane to a higher concentration from a lower concentration until the the external concentration matches the inner one.

To put it in simple words, when a single animal cell is places in a solution which has more water than other solutes, the water will invade the cell until it can accumulate the amount that equalizes the inner and external concentration. The cell will begin to swell up until there is no more space and finally, it will burst. For example, when you put water on a cloth that has blood stain on it, the cells will burst and make the stain worse than before.

Bad White [126]

The cerebrum (brain) can be divided into two hemispheres: the left hemispheres and the right hemisphere. These hemispheres are separated by a deep longitudinal fissure (i.e., the cerebral fissure).

  • In this case, the patient will be able to identify the cat using his RIGHT-HAND.

  • The left brain hemisphere receives sensory information from and controls movements on the right part of the body, and vice-versa.

  • In consequence, the left brain hemisphere controls the movements of the right hand, whereas the right brain hemisphere controls the left hand.
