How are all bacteria toxins killed?
Toxins are not alive, they are just chemicals which hurt us. They can be made by bacteria among other things. The bacteria can be killed by sufficient heat, but not all toxins are destroyed by heat.
Bacteria is killed by what?
Bacteria can be killed by various methods, including heat, antibiotics, disinfectants, and certain chemicals. Heat can denature the proteins in bacteria, leading to their death. Antibiotics target specific pathways or structures in bacteria, preventing their growth and reproduction. Disinfectants and chemicals can disrupt the cell membrane or interfere with the metabolic processes of bacteria, leading to their elimination.
Why was the mixture of heat killed s bacteria and r bacteria virulent?
The live R bacteria acquired a capsule and became live, virulent S bacteria.
What is Fredderick Griffith hypothesis?
Frederick Griffith hypothesized that live, harmless bacteria and the heat-killed bacteria were mixed, some factor was transferred from the heat-killed cells into the live cells! it has nothing to do with bats flying thru walls!!
Kind of bactaria are killed in pasteurization?
pathogenic microbes.Mostly,bacteria with poor heat resistant.
Who Was responsible for the experiment with mice and bacteria that led to the hypothesis that when two bacteria were mixed together something was passed to the living cells?
This experiment was conducted by Frederick Griffith in 1928. He observed that when he mixed a harmless strain of bacteria with a heat-killed virulent strain, the harmless bacteria were transformed into a virulent form. This led to the hypothesis that something in the heat-killed bacteria had transformed the live bacteria.
How much bacteria gets killed from steam?
The amount of bacteria killed by steam depends on various factors such as temperature, exposure time, and bacterial species. Steam can be an effective method for killing bacteria as the heat can denature and destroy proteins essential for bacterial survival. However, some heat-resistant bacteria may require higher temperatures or longer exposure times to be effectively killed by steam.
What happened when Griffith injected mice with a mixture of heat-killed pneumonia-causing bacteria and live bacteria of the harmless type?
that it was very gay
Harmful bacteria in food can be killed by?
Cooking the food. Raising the heat to te proper level kills bacteria.
What was 'transformed' in Griffith's experiment?
In Griffith's experiment, non-pathogenic bacteria were transformed into pathogenic bacteria by being exposed to heat-killed pathogenic bacteria, a process now known as transformation. This led to the discovery of genetic material transfer between bacteria.
Why did heat kill Griffith's S bacteria?
Heat killed S bacteria in Griffith's experiment was because of the temperature of the heat. The heat was high enough to kill many things like proteins and enzymes, so the bacteria could not create endospores to harm the immune system.
Why did Griffith need to show that the heat killed bacteria didn't make the mouse die?
Griffith needed to demonstrate that the heat-killed bacteria could cause disease symptoms in mice when combined with live non-pathogenic bacteria. This was to show the concept of transformation, where genetic material can be transferred between different bacteria, ultimately leading to understanding how genetic information is transmitted.
