ANSWER
* In the case of typical bacteria it's biological membarine is complex and composed
of lipids and proteins.
* If the bacteria culture is tested using change in temperature (15 degree celsius to 37 degree celsius).
then their membrane adapt to low temperature by increasing the ratio of unsaturated fatty acid to
saturated fatty acid.
* This type of adaptation known as homeoviscous adaptation and it help to keep the membrane fluidity.
in a study of membrane composition, a bacterial culture was grown at 15 degrees Celsius, and...
If you were growing a culture of bacteria at 37°C and decreased the temperature of your culture to 15°C, what would be the etfect of this change on the activity of the enzyme desaturase? How would this change in desaturase activity affect the fatty acid composbion and transition temperature of the membrane? (0.4 points) 1 Answer

Membrane's regulation Problem 4 (20 pts) - A culture of bacteria growing at 37°C was shifted to 25°C. How would you expect this shift to alter the fatty acid composition of the membrane phospholipids? Explain. If bacteria were able to synthesize cholesterol, how would you expect this shift to alter their membrane's cholesterol concentration?
1) Acetic acid is produced using bacteria in batch culture. It was shown that for each mole of glucose utilized by the bacteria, 3.60 moles of cells, 1.10 moles of acetic acid, 1.30 moles of gaseous CO2, and some H20 are formed. Oxygen and ammonia were consumed. Other components of the system such as phosphate can be neglected. Cellular composition of bacteria might be taken as CH1.770049No.24 Medium containing glucose and ammonia dissolved in 15,000 litres of water is pumped...
"Three organisms were innoculated on a culture media. Results showed Escherichia coli as red colonies, no growth of Staphylococcus epidermidis, and colorless colonies of Salmonella enterica. The medium is:" a selective and differential b differential c selective d minimal e heterotrophic "A bacterium was incubated with aeration in a nutrient medium containing two carbon sources. After logarithmic growth, a lag phase was observed for 25 minutes. Then logarithmic growth at a slower rate was observed. Which substate was preferred by...

Example An otherwise typical bacterial cell increases from one cell to 256 cells in 10 hours. What is the generation time of this organism? Example: Escherichia coli has a doubling time of 20 minutes. If there are 5 cells at the beginning of the experiment, how many will there be in 3 hours? Example You perform a serial dilution and determine that the original number of cells in your sample was 12,000. How many bacteria will be present in 12...

Case Study #1: A G3P1011 presented to labor and delivery for induction at 39 2/7 weeks with a positive Group B Strep culture but delivered only two hours after the first dose of Penicillin G had infused. The infant’s temperature at birth and 30 minutes of age was 101 degrees F. The neonatologist ordered the following labs: CBC with manual differential and C Reactive Protein. At one hour of age the CBC and differential results were returned. The total WBC...
