My best guess would be C. Assessing a patient's level of compliance with past medical advice. You want to know if they have followed medical advice prior because if they haven't, you would just be wasting your breath.
Answer: The technician would expect to see "purple, spherical-shaped organisms arranged in chainlike formations." This will give the gram stain confirmation of having streptococcus pyogenes. With the confirmation, the patient can receive antibiotics to kill off the bacterial organisms. Usually, penicillin is given in these cases unless the patient is allergic.
The technician is taught in school how to look for each strain since it is important to diagnosis this correctly. If the gram stain had of been pink or purple with grapelike clusters, it would have not of been Strep and there would have been a different diagnosis.
Bacteria strains are different shapes, various sizes, and can be found in multiple arrangements. Since the wall of the cell is rigid, the bacteria will not lose the shape. The bacteria have to separate parts, the shape and how they are arranged. When there are grape-like structures it indicates staphylo. The chains will indicate the presence of strepto. The shapes that are rods will be bacilli, the spiral ones will be spirillum, and the sphere shapes are cocci.
Answer:
Many smokers chose so-called low-tar, mild, light, or ultralight cigarettes because they thought these cigarettes would expose them to less tar and would be less harmful to their health than regular or full-flavor cigarettes. However, light cigarettes are no safer than regular cigarettes.
