You are characterizing a microbial community from a petroleum pipeline. Assuming that you can culture, isolate and identify all microbes present in the samples, explain the criteria you would apply to classify the microbes into any a particular domain of life.
Homework Answers
Bacterias are classified into 5 groups according to their shapes
Spherical - cocci
Rod -bacilli
Spiral - spirilla
Comma -vibrios
Corkscrew- spirochaetes
After culturing bases on their shapes we can classify into particular domains.

An F' plasmid from an exotic marine bacterium that can degrade petroleum when mated with an F-E. coli that cannot degrade petroleum results in an E. coli F' that can degrade petroleum. After sequencing the F' plasmid and comparing it to the F sequence, you see that it has about 6000 base pairs of additional DNA. You suspect that there is a gene in that sequence that encodes a protein that degrades petroleum. Describe how you would use reverse genetics...

Question 13 Microbes can become resistant to antibiotics and prevent the antibiotics from damaging them. Why? (Select all that apply) When bacteria reproduce, chance mutations that can protect the bacterium against a particular antibiotic occur. Bacteria reproduce very fast. The antibiotic changes the DNA of the bacterial cells. While most of the bacteria succumb to the antibiotic, the few that survive go on to reproduce and replicate the resistance. In any large population of bacteria, a few cells will be...

You are given a mixed culture of two organisms in a small tube of TSB.
You are given a mixed culture of two organisms in a small tube of TSB. These two organisms include a Gram-negative strain (your bacterial strain to identify) and a Gram-positive strain (a contaminant). Your first task is to isolate these organisms which will help you identify which Gram-negative strain you are working with. 1) You inoculate two streak plates on TSA media and MacConkey Agar using aseptic technique. For each medium, state whether the medium is selective, differential, or neither and...

2. W 3. Bonnic Bacteroidetes told Floyd Firmicutes that too many of his kind would make people fat. Bacteroidetes and Firmicutes are two of the main phyla that inhabit the human gut. There is evidence from a number of sources that the ratio of Bacteroidetes to Firmicutes plays a role in weight. If the ratio is tipped in favor of Firmicutes, obesity can result. Propose a mechanism (other than that...

Can you please explain and show all the steps to solve these log problems Ex1: 8.52 = 9.52 + log(0.500/x) Ex2: 8.52 = 9.52 + ln(0.500/x) I want to isolate "x" but I don't know how to remove the "log" or "ln" from the problem. Also would it be any different if "x" were in the numerator instead of the denominator? The more specific the better, Thank You!
