Does Bacillus cereus hydrolyze starch?
Yep.
Who discovered Enterococcus Faecalis?
Nothing "causes" Enterococcus faecalis. This is because, E. faecalis is a "bug" or bacterium, and as such, it has no "cause" per se. A link can be found below for more information.
How do enzymes affect food?
Enzymes help in digestion of food by catalyzing the biochemcal reactions between food molecules and chemicals that helps in digestion. Enzymes speed up the biochemical reactions and act as catalysts.
What diseases are caused by alcaligenes faecalis?
There are several different diseases and conditions that are caused by Alcaligenes Faecalis. Some of these conditions and diseases include endophthlamitis and many different types of infections.
Can Alcaligenes faecalis produce endo-spores?
No ~!
Does Bacillus cereus hydrolyze starch?
Yep.
When glucose is in short supply plants will quickly hydrolyze?
starch
The complete hydrolysis of starch yields what simple sugar?
As you hydrolyze starch, you make glucose molecules.
Does E. coli hydrolyze casein?
no, E. coli does not hydrolyze starch; if you grow a culture on a starch plate and incubate it at 37 Celsius for 24 hours and then flood the plate with iodine, you will see no reactiojn (ie: clear area developing around the growth).
A certain enzyme with hydrolyze egg white but not starch which statement best explains this observation?
enzymes are specific in their actions
Why is it necessary that you digest hydrolyze starchy food?
Sugar molecules are more easily transported through the cell membrane than larger starch molecules.

What is the difference between A. faecalis and P. aeruginosa?
P. aeruginosa is positive for nitrate reduction where as A. faecalis is negative.
How does starch hydrolysis work?
Starch hydrolysis is a test done to determine whether or not an organism secretes the extracellular enzymes alpha-amylase/ oligo-1,6-glucosidase in order to hydrolyze starch by breaking the glycosidic bonds between its' sugar subunits in order to metabolize starch. Starch can exist in two forms; linear (amylose) or branched (amylopectin), with the difference being that amylopectin includes both 1,4-alpha-glycosidic and 1,6-alpha-glycosidic linkages while amylose only has the former. Since starch is too large to go through the bacterial cell membrane, the bacterial cell must produce the previously mentioned enzymes in order to utilize the glucose subunits in starch. Starch agar consists of beef extract, soluble starch and agar. The bacteria that product the necessary enzymes will hydrolyze the starch in the area of their growth, and this can be seen with the reagent iodine, which reacts with starch to create a blue/dark brown color. Thus, starch hydrolysis becomes evident as a clear zone around the growth.
What diseases are caused by alcaligenes faecalis?

Is the bacteria Alcaligenes faecalis pathogenic?
no
