Answer:

Clusters of cocci (i.e., grape-like cocci)

Explanation:

Cocci (in singular coccus) are spherical-shaped bacteria, while bacilli and spirilli are rod-shaped and spiral-shaped bacteria, respectively (in general, bacteria can be divided into these three categories by shape). <em>Staphylococcus aureus</em> forms irregular clusters of cocci (i.e., grape-like cocci) when viewed through a microscope. Some Gram-positive cocci include, for example, <em>Staphylococcus aureus</em> and <em>Streptococcus pneumoniae</em>. These species are well known to be bacterial pathogens capable of infecting humans.

Based on your readings about Bt corn, express your opinion about whether or not farmers should continue planting Bt corn. Explai
miss Akunina [59]
Farmers should discontinue the use of Bt corn (genetically modified maize)as their negative affects on the health of the consumers have not been fully over ruled by the recent research. In my opinion, genetically modified crops, although, are resistant to various pests, should not be encouraged because of the toxic chemical contents used during their production. There's a strong likelihood of these toxic chemicals entering our food chain and also being harmful to other naturally growing plants, hence there's a need for more research before this idea is pursued.
