What might be the source if an unexpected bacteria appears on a finished smear even if a clean slide was used?
contamination of the stains.
Bacteria are not used to make?
jarms
What is a function of the pili found on the surface of some bacteria?
There are two types of pili found on some bacteria. Sex pili are used by bacteria to transfer plasmids during conjugation. Common pili (fimbrae) are used to stick to surfaces.
Is bacteria used to make foods helpful or harmful?
Both, there are good bacteria to help make you better and there are bad bacteria to make you sick. That is where the common cold comes from.
During conjugation which what structures does a bacteria form that is used to transfer DNA?
conjugation occurs between two bacterial cells and transfers DNA in the form of plasmids. this is one way to transfer of genetic material - it is not sexual reproduction, The other two ways to transfer genetic material between bacteria are transformation and transduction. In order to be able to perform coagulation (transfer of a plasmid) the bacteria must have an F factor (DNA that codes for the PILI protein, which allows the bacteria to create a bridge through which the bacteria inject the plasmid to another bacteria). Bacteria with F factor is called F+, and without it is called F-. F+ can transfer the plasmid to an F- bacteria.
What might be the source if an unexpected bacteria appears on a finished smear even if a clean slide was used?
contamination of the stains.
Why is it necessary to excessively rinse the smear with water in experiment identifying bacteria using gram stain?
smear should be rinsed with distill water so that all the small particles attach to the smear will washed away such as some time the crystals of dye are attached to the smear which give the illusion of microbial cell some time, distill water is used because it is free from other microbial cell and ions which can harm the smear.
What structures does a bacteria form that is used to transfer DNA?
Pilus, plasmid
How do I make a silly sentence with the word smear?
The clown used his coat sleeve to smear the cream pie all over the other clown's face.
How is bacteria used in food?
Bacteria has been used to make cheese.

What is used to make the cells in the blood smear more easily observable?
Wright's stain
What is the bacteria used to make yogurt?
Bacteria from the genus Lactobacillus.
What is the material that the loop used in bacterial smear make and why?
the loop is called innoculation loop, it is made up of nickel becase before looping a bacteria it needs to be sterilized in the flame, so nickel having high melting and bioling point and neutral in reactivity therefore it is used.
What test is used to detect cervical cancer?
A gynecologist can perform a Pap smear to find any abnormal cells. You will need to make an appointment at an Obgyn for this.
