Evidence for the relatively close relationship of archaea to eukaryotes includes what?
Evidence for the relatively close relationship of archaea to eukaryotes includes the fact that their growth is not hindered by certain antibiotics that do hinder bacterial growth. Archaea is a kingdom that consists of single-celled microorganisms.
Can you get bacterial menigitis from mold?
No. Mold is a fungus, not a bacteria. You can get mycotoxin exposure to certain types of mold, which will make you very sick, and can even be fatal in high enough concentrations. However, you can only get bacterial meningitis from certain bacterial infections.
What is bacterial spore?
Bacterial spores are resistant and dormant structures formed in certain Bacteria and are ment for survival . They are of 2 types endospore and exospores .
A certain mutant bacterial cell cannot produce substance X?
gene that codes for a specific protein
Can a bacterial infection cause failed drug test?
No, a bacterial infection cannot cause a failed drug test. Drug tests are designed to detect specific drugs or their metabolites in the body, not bacterial infections. However, certain medications used to treat bacterial infections might lead to false positives on drug tests.
The chemical found in tears and saliva that hydrolyzes the peptidoglycan in certain bacterial cell walls is what?
lysosomes
What is the difference between ciprofloxacn and penicillin?
ciprofloxacin is a class of antibiotic that works by a different mechanism to kill bacteria than penicillin. penicillin works by preventing bacteria that have a compound called peptidoglycan in their cell wall from completely forming. the penicillin binds to a certain amino acid sequence in the peptidoglycan and prevents the bacterial cell from completely forming the cell wall which causes the bacterial cell to have structural instability, causing cellular death. ciprofloxacin is a fluoroquinolone type of antibiotic that interferes with the synthesis of bacterial DNA by preventing the function of a certain enzyme which kills the bacterial cell by preventing its replication process.
Why is Lysozyme is not effective against viruses?
Lysozyme (or muramidase) acts against peptidoglycan, as that found in bacterial cell walls but not in viruses. It stresses and breaks the glycosidic bond between N-acetylmuramic acid and N-acetylglucosamine, two alternating monosaccharides of the sugar component of peptidoglycan.
What is muramic acid?
Muramic acid is a peptidoglycan found in the cell wall of certain bacteria

What is pyramox?
An antibiotic used to treat certain bacterial infections.

Bacterial spores are resistant and dormant structures formed in certain Bacteria and are ment for survival . They are of 2 types endospore and exospores .
A certain bacterial colony originated from the division of a single bacterial cell Each cell in this colony will most likely?
synthesize the same proteins and enzymes
What is the function of LPS or Lipopolysaccharide?
The major component of the bacterial cell wall of Gram-negative bacteria is LPS, Lipopolysaccharide. LPS helps protect the membrane from certain kinds of chemical attack and greatly contributes to the structural integrity of the bacteria.
Why are oil spills sprayed with bacterial cultures?
There are certain bacteria that actually eat oil
How can you cause chemical change?
A chemical reaction occurs when two compounds collide in a certain orientation and with a certain amount of force.
