What else can I help you with?
What are the structures inside the moss capsule called?
The structures inside a moss capsule are called peristome teeth. These teeth help regulate the release of spores from the capsule by responding to changes in humidity.
Are any species of staphylococcus spore forming?
All species of Staphylococcus lack spores
What do spores produce?
Spores are reproductive structures produced by some organisms, such as fungi, bacteria, and plants. When spores germinate, they can develop into new individuals under favorable conditions.
What special defenses do spores and capsules have?
Bacteria can form capsules and spores. A capsule is a protective layer around some bacteria. They can be virulent as they can resist the body's defence mechanism. Bacteria can change into bacterial spores when the environmental conditions are unfavourable. In this condition bacteria are inactive. When the environmental conditions become more suitable the bacteria can become active and cause disease. Bacterial spores are extremely resistant and can survive most forms of disinfection and inadequate sterilisation
At what stage in the microbial growth curve spores develop?
Spores form during the Stationary Phase of the Bacterial Growth Curve. During the lag phase or the log phase, things are good for the bacteria, so they arent thinking about what it is like to live without all the resources that they need, so they dont start forming the spores yet. Once the bacteria reach the death phase they are not able to form spores anymore, let alone stay alive. So the only phase that the spore forming bacteria make there spores is during the stationary phase.
Can spores multiply?
in 1 hour 40 minutes 1000 bacteria can become 1,000,000+
What makes Bacteria multiply?
bacteria need to be at the right temperature to multiply (room temperature) which is why we freeze/cook food, temperatures that are to hot and too cold kill the spores (bacteria) and therefore kill them
What is the purpose of spores that live within some bacteria?
Spores are a form of reproductive structure that bacteria can produce to survive harsh environmental conditions. They can protect the bacteria from desiccation, heat, radiation, and chemical damage. Spores allow bacteria to remain dormant until conditions improve, at which point they can germinate and resume growth.
What is the significance of the organication?
Endospre foming orgaism are of particular interest in the medical field because it is going to inflience the treatment of bacterial infection if the infecting pathogen is able to form spores. As you might already know, spores are formed inside the bacterial cell and are ejected into the external environment. The spores are quite tough and are able to grow into complete bacteria under the right physical conditions. Hence, killing the pathogen does not ensure the death of the spores as well. The spores can turn into bacteria later. Hence, for spore forming bacteria, the medical procedure has to be designed to get rid of the bacteria as well as the spores.
What do fungi and bacteria grow from?
fungi and bacteria grow from spores.
Why do bacteria that form spores present a greater health risk than those that don't form spores?
Spore forming bacteria are resistant to heat, cold etc. They r not killed when subjected to high temp. So when they get suitable conditns they start growing nd effect the host or the place where they r present...
What is the difference between spores and vegetative bacteria?
Spores are a dormant, protected form of bacteria that can withstand harsh conditions, while vegetative bacteria are actively growing and reproducing. Spores are highly resistant and can survive for long periods, while vegetative bacteria are more vulnerable to environmental stresses. Spores can germinate and grow into vegetative bacteria when conditions become favorable.
Do bacteria reproduce by spores?
Yes they do
How fungi and bacteria alike?
its spores
Why donot bacteria multiply quickly in trail mix containing granola and dried fruit?
Trail mix with granola and dried fruit tend to last longer. As a result, it takes them for bacteria spores to congregate and grow on them.
Where are spores?
Spores are produced by fungi, bacteria, and green plants. Spores in mushrooms are produced on special cells called basidia.
How many spores are inside a spores case?
Each spore case holds thousands of spores.
