Answer:
A. We can deduce that microorganisms such as Citrobacter have a classification from which it is possible to establish the most favorable environment for it, since being gram-negative, lactose positive, optional anaerobic, not endospore, it will prefer the environment as humid sites and that contain wastewater and soil as well as the intestine, it can therefore remain in some contaminated food and be transmitted with consumption
B. Given the aforementioned characteristics of Citrobacter, it does not infect all people and prefers those who have deficits in its defense mechanisms, thus it becomes a favorable site for colonization of newborns, who do not have adequate immunity, according to the case. Clinically, the neonate was able to acquire the infection in various ways, although the medical personnel who have manipulated it do not have positive tests, the microorganism can adhere to contaminated surfaces and it will be necessary to take samples of the mother's and neonate's feces, as well as the soil. and the water where the infected was, to subsequently carry out disinfection processes in the areas and avoid new infections.
Correct order is: organism, population, community, ecosystem, biosphere.
<em>The botulinum toxin, a poison produced by the bacterium Clostridium botulinum (C. botulinum), is common in soil and exists in untreated water. It can survive in these environments as a resistant spore. Foodborne botulism is caused by consuming foods containing the botulinum toxin.</em>
Relative dating best helps determine fossil age. It's where layers of sedimentary rock and fossils pile up on top of each other; the oldest fossils being in the bottom layer and the youngest in the top.
