choose:
which defense mechanism is more effective against gram positive bacteria than gram negative bacteria?
a- inflammation
b- B-galactosidase
c- peptidyl transferase
d- lysozyme
D. Lysozyme.
Lysozymes cleave the beta-1, 4 linkage between sugar molecules and is more effective against gram-positive bacteria. Because the peptidoglycan cell wall is exposed out well in gram positive bacteria whereas gram negative bacteria have an outer lipopolysaccharide layer covering the peptidoglycan layer.

A OBLIGATE AEROBE B FACULTATIVE ANAEROBE CAEROTOLERANT ANAEROBE D OBLIGATE ANAEROBEE MICROAEROPHILE Extra: In a Gram stain one step could be omitted and still allow differentiation between Gram positive and Gram negative bacteria. What is that step? Why?
Gram-Negative Bacterial PAMPs 1. Describe the mechanism by which Gram-negative bacteria initiate the inflammatory response and activate the coagulation pathway and the complement pathway. 2. State how this can be both beneficial and harmful to the body.
