You INCORRECTLY perform an acid-fast stain on a smear from a mixed culture of Mycobacterium smegmatis (acid-fast) cells and Stap
Dahasolnce [82]

Answer:

In acid-fast staining, carbon fuchsin is used as a primary stain which dissolves the mycolic acid present in the cell wall of <em>Mycobacterium smegmatis </em>and penetrates through it which results in staining <em>Mycobacterium</em> red.

Staphylococcus aureus cell wall does not contain mycolic acid so carbon fuchsin does not penetrate its cell wall, therefore, it becomes colorless after destaining with acid alcohol.

After destaining step methylene blue is added to stain non-acid-fast bacteria blue. So if I mistakenly forgot to use methylene blue during the procedure <em>Mycobacterium smegmatis</em> will appear red due to carbon fuchsin present in their cell wall and S<em>taphylococcus aureus</em> will appear colorless because it is destained.

The DNA segment that carries information for building one protein or polypeptide chain is called a(n) ________.
kirill115 [55]

Answer:

The correct answer is a gene

Explanation:

The DNA segment that carries information for coding one protein or polypeptide is called a gene. According to one gene-one polypeptide hypothesis, each gene is responsible for making a single chain of the polypeptide.

Originally it was said that one gene codes for one enzyme but later it was found that some gene also codes for non-enzyme proteins and single polypeptide chains. So after this research, the theory was modified and one gene-one polypeptide theory came. Therefore the right answer is gene.
