Streptococci are facultative anaerobes. They have the superoxide distumate to stimulate O2 which breaks down superoxide. This allows them to tolerate O2 in the absence of catalase activity.
In the abscence of these enzymes, the toxic concentration of H202 cannot be degraded when these organisms are cultivated in the presence of oxygen.
Streptococci are facultative anaerobes and this ability allows them to tolerate O2 in the absence of catalase activity. They contain the superoxide distumate to stimulate O2.

because of lack of catalase enzyme
Yes, it is catalase positive. This is because it is capable of breaking down hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) to give water and oxygen. The presence of bubbles when hydrogen peroxide is added to E. coli on a microscope slide is a phenotypic (observable physical characteristic) proof that it is catalase positive.
Because negative staining requires the use of an acidic stain, which will not penetrate the cells because of the negative charge on the surface of the bacteria. As a result, the unstained cells can be easily identified against the colored background.
Red blood cells contain a protein called hemoglobin. Hemoglobin is able to bind to oxygen molecules. Therefore, the presence of hemoglobin the red blood cells makes them capable of carrying oxygen.
any agent or factor capable of initiating a nerve impulse
spirochetes
Yes, it is catalase positive. This is because it is capable of breaking down hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) to give water and oxygen. The presence of bubbles when hydrogen peroxide is added to E. coli on a microscope slide is a phenotypic (observable physical characteristic) proof that it is catalase positive.
Since these species are both facultative anaerobes, both types of bacteria are capable of utilizing fermentation for their energy needs, as opposed to respiration, which occurs in the presence of oxygen.
flagellum
No, Streptococcus pneumoniae is not an intracellular obligate parasite. It is a bacterium that typically colonizes the upper respiratory tract of humans and can cause infections such as pneumonia, sinusitis, and meningitis. It is capable of surviving and replicating both inside and outside of host cells.
Catalse Test Catalase (also known as peroxidase) is an enzyme that catalyses the breakdown of hydrogen peroxide to oxygen and water. Most higher organisms produce catalase, but in bacteriology this test is usually used to differentiate staphylococci (Catalase positive) from streptococci (Catalase negative). Chemical equation for the breakdown of hydrogen peroxide:2H2O2 → 2H2O + O2 In this test a drop of hydrogen peroxide is emulsified with the bacterial growth, if the organism is catalase positive active bubbling is seen (formation of oxygen) In catalase negative reactions no active bubbling is seen
Presence of the photocatalyst i.e. chlorophyll.
No, the skin is only capable of producing vitamin D in the presence of sunlight.
Not necessarily. A negative EBITDA implies that the entity is not capable to cover its interest and tax payments with its operating profits.
The highest concentration of gas in air is capable to producing flash of fire in presence of ignition source.
Rickettsiae
It was a siege weapon. In addition to being capable of breaking down walls and other structures, it had some real negative affects on morale.
