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.

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.

This food web represents a community in a rain forest.
nasty-shy [4]

Answer:

coatis would increase

sloths would increase

fruit bats would increase

Explanation:

The boa constrictor in this food chain is the top predator, thus it is on the top of the food chain. It preys on several of the animals on this list, such as the coati, sloth, and fruit bats, so it is regulating their numbers. If the boa constrictor is removed from the ecosystem, the ecosystem will lose its predator, so the animals on which the boa constrictor preyed upon will have no threat, thus will experience rapid increase in their numbers. The coatis, sloths, and fruit bats, all will be predator free in this scenario, so they will all experience increase in their population, which in turn will have big effect on all other species in the ecosystem.

What is the constant of “which date works best for a homemade fly trap?”
Dafna1 [17]

Answer:

Mix scraps of meat (the older, the better) with something sweet. Lots of people swear by using rotten fish or shrimp, which probably work best because they smell so much. Bait for Fruit Flies: Use fruit (the riper, the better), apple cider vinegar, fruit juice, syrup, wine, beer, or any combination
