Why is ground beef a better bacterial growth medium than steak or roast?
The bacteria would be grounded up with the beef and it would be spread throughout the meat, making it ideal for the media to have bacterial growth throughout. Unlike the steak or roast where it would only have bacterial growth on the surface.
What is complement how does it cause bacterial lysis what are some othere roles of complement?
Complement is a collection of proteins found in the blood that are effective against a wide variety of bacteria. Complement can cause bacterial lysis when the C5-C9 proteins are activated by C3. The C9 proteins insert into the bacterial cell membrane causing lysis and destruction of the bacteria.

What can happen if diabetic foot infections are left untreated?

Are the circulatory system and the cardiovascular system the same?
No they are not the same. The cardiovascular system involves the circulatory system and the lungs and it transports oxygen and removes co2 from the body. On the other hand the circulatory system is responsible for moving blood throughout the body. So while they involve the same parts they are not the same system
What system involves plasma proteins activated when they contact a bacterial cell?
The complement system is made up of a large number of plasma proteins. They react with one another to opsonize pathogens and induce a series of inflammatory responses that help to fight infection.
Is bronchitis a disease of the cardiovascular system or the respiratory system?
Bronchitis is an inflammation of the mucus membranes of the bronchi (the airways that carry air from the trachea into the rest of the lungs). As such it is clearly a disease of the respiratory system rather than cardiovascular. It can be the result of an infection or to exposure to noxious airborne components like cigarette smoke or pollution. Of course, if the inflammation is interfering with the ability of a person to breath, the effects will show up in the cardiovascular system as the blood may not be getting fully oxygenated as it passes through the lungs - but this is a secondary effect.
What are the two bacterial domains?
archea and bacterial
