Help! ASAP, this is due tomorrow and I’m struggling as this isn’t what they taught us. The question is: Explain why the bacteria

shown (E. coli) have a second membrane outside the
peptidoglycan.

The second membrane protects e.coli (Gram-negative bacteria) against a harsh environment.

The outer membrane indirectly helps stabilize the inner membrane as peptidoglycan layer in Gram-negative bacteria is relatively thin than gram positive bacteria ( they have multilayer pepdtidoglycan )

Answer:

The outer membrane of Escherichia coli consists of lipopolysaccharide, phospholipid, protein and Enterobacterial common antigen. The outer membrane as a layer has a protective function. Several specific functions can be attributed to individual constituents. hope this helps!

Group the following into the appropriate range of measurement.
Vesna [10]

Answer:

Hydrogen atom & glucose molecule --- atomic.

Herpesvirus, DNA --- ultramicroscopic.

Protozoan, Rickettsia - microscopic.

Roundworm and algae --- macroscopic

Explanation:

1) Hydrogen atom & glucose molecule --- atomic.

The atomic size level, which interacts with atoms as well as small molecules, is much lower than the ultramicroscopic range.

2) Herpesvirus, DNA --- ultramicroscopic.

Ultramicroscopic particles are very tiny structures that cannot be seen using a conventional optical microscope, necessitating the use of an electron microscope. Viruses and DNA falls into this group since they are much smaller than tiny species like bacteria.

3) Protozoan, Rickettsia - microscopic.

Microscopic species are much smaller than macroscopic organisms because they cannot be observed by the naked human eye and must be viewed through a microscope. The size range for microscopic particles is ( 10^3  \ \ to  \ \ 10^{10}), which contains protozoans and Rickettsia (a gram-negative, non-motile bacteria genus).

4) Roundworm and algae --- macroscopic

Naked eyes can see macroscopic organisms; for example, several types of circular worms and algae can be seen by them.
