Mycoplasma: A large group of bacteria, with more than 100 types identified. Mycoplasma are very simple one-celled organisms without outer membranes. They penetrate and infect individual cells. Mycoplasma hominis and Mycoplasma pneumoniae are examples of mycoplasma bacteria that occur in humans.

(A) Mycoplasma pneumoniae cells (Gram stain). The signet-ring-shaped cell of Mycoplasma is gram-negative, and the size of the cell is 0.2–0.3 μm and is normally smaller than 1.0 μm. Cells have no cell wall.

What is the treatment for mycoplasma infection? Antibiotics such as erythromycin, clarithromycin or azithromycin are effective treatment. However, because mycoplasma infection usually resolves on its own, antibiotic treatment of mild symptoms is not always necessary.

Doxycycline is a tetracycline antibiotic that is used to treat susceptible bacterial infections of both gram-positive and gram-negative organisms, as well as infections caused by Mycoplasma, Chlamydophilia, and Rickettsia

Mycoplasma testing includes a group of tests that either measure antibodies in the blood produced in response to a mycoplasma infection or detect the microbe directly through culturing or by detecting its genetic material (DNA) in a body sample. It is most often used to detect Mycoplasma pneumoniae (M.28

What change to the following molecule's structure would result in a saturated fat?

NemiM [27]

Answer:

It needs to gain a Hydrogen atom to eliminate the double bond between the two carbons.

Explanation:

Unsaturated fat has one or more double bonds in its molecule. Saturated fat has a single bond. If you want an unsaturated fat to become saturated it needs to gain more more hydrogen atoms which will eliminate the double bonds between carbons of the unsaturated fat.

Hope this helped :)

Can someone help me please?!!

tatuchka [14]

1. P (because the tick is benefited but the dog isn't.)

2. M (because both organisms are benefited.)

3. P (the tapeworm is benefited but the student isn't.)

4. C (because the bird's nest is benefited and the tree is not harmed)

5. C (the hermit crab needs the sea anemones and the sea anemones is not harmed)

But yeah I gave you a few examples of (P, M, and C), so you should figure it out now.

6. C

7. P

8. M

How do ATP and ADP compare? A. ATP has one fewer phosphate group and is lower in energy than ADP. B. ATP has one fewer phosphate

Lady bird [3.3K]

D. ATP (Adenosine TRIphosphate) has one more phosphate group and is higher in energy than ADP (Adenosine DIphosphate). TRI means three, DI means two, so the names of the molecules tell you there's one more phosphate in ATP than in ADP.

That extra phosphate makes ATP higher in energy (when the cell uses that energy to do something - contract a muscle fiber, for instance - the ATP's extra energy is used and it gets converted to ADP).

What is the genotype of a homozygous person with a cleft chin?

leonid [27]

Answer:

When someone has two copies of the same allele, they are said to be homozygous for that allele. When someone has a combination of alleles for a given gene, they are said to be heterozygous. ... If the woman is homozygous for cleft chin (BB), her offspring will always have cleft chin.
