This is often the result of using far too many bacteria. You only need to take a very small loop from the bacterial culture to make a clear smear.

When and how bacterial vaginosis reached the us?
Bacterial vagnosis isn't a germ that originated in one place and traveled to another. It's an imbalance in the normal bacteria of the vagina, with an overgrowth of bacteria that are normally found in the rectal area.
What is the process by which bacteria take piece's of DNA from their environment?
Conjugation Transformation Transduction (A bacterial cell takes up DNA from its environment One bacterium transfers DNA to another bacterium to which it's physically connected A virus moves DNA from one bacterial cell to another)
What do human cells have in common with bacteria cells?
Humans are related to bacteria in that they are both a part of the Earth. They interact with one another, and while some bacteria is actually helpful to humans, many kinds of bacteria can be harmful.
What plasmids are and how they are used to get bacteria to synthesize a new protein that they normally do not synthesize?
Plasmids are circles of DNA. These have genes that can be transferred from one bacteria that has it to another. These genes can code for a protein that one cell normally doesn't code for. This done by a process called bacterial conjugation.
Do bacteria and virus spread the same way?
Viral and bacterial infections are both spread in basically the same ways. A person with a cold can spread the infection by coughing and/or sneezing. Bacteria or viruses can be passed on by touching or shaking hands with another person.Feb 5, 2014Found on Netdocter.

How would you define a properly prepared bacterial smear?
the bacteria are evenly spread out on the prepared slide in such a concentration that they are adequately separated from one another bacteria are not washed off the slide during staining bacterial form is not distorted

In regards to bacterial growth define colony?
Each colony is a mass of bacterial clones, usually founded by one individual cell. So each colony represents one original microbe.
