The most likely complication of this disease is the development of Empyema.
Explanation:
The patient has symptoms of fever, dyspenea (breathlessness with chest pain), cough and sputum which directs towards empyema as they are symptoms of pneumonia and prolonged symptoms would cause empyema.
The infiltrates in the posterior segments of upper lobe of the right lung results in bulging fissure causing necrosis lesion which would cause the complications of empyema.
The empyema is the condition in which pus cells are formed in thoracic cavity, in pleural fluid bacterial infection occurs due to pneumonia or surgery of chest.
The empyema risk is high for diabetics, pulmunary infected and alcoholism.
Most bacteria live in a solution that is hypotonic relative to the cytoplasm of the bacteria. This means that the bacterial cell is constantly taking in water. The cell wall of a bacterium is a peptidoglycan polymer that is tightly cross-linked. This would therefore function to:_________-.
A. regulate the flow of most molecules into and out of the bacterial cell.
B. provide a rigid wall that prevents the cell from swelling.
C. provide a rigid wall that prevents the cell from shrinking.
D. confirm a close relationship to plant cells that have a similar structure and live in hypotonic solutions.
E. make all bacteria fairly uniform in metabolic chemistry.
Answer:
B. provide a rigid wall that prevents the cell from swelling.
Explanation:
When organisms are present in hypotonic surroundings, their cells that are in contact with the surroundings tend to gain water. Bacteria present in hypotonic solution would gain water as their cells are hypertonic than the surroundings. The entry of water would increase the volume of cytoplasm and could lead to the bursting of the cell. However, the presence of a cell wall made up of cross-linked peptidoglycan prevents the swelling of the bacterial cell and allow them to survive in hypotonic surroundings.
Answer:
B)protons, down
Explanation:
Chemiosmosis is the diffusion of ions through a selective permeable membrane. It specifically refers to the production of ATP through the movement of hydrogen ions through an inner membrane during cellular respiration. Hydrogen ions diffuse from an area of high proton concentration to one of lower concentration.
