What color is sandy soil?
It can be many colors. Shades of brown are probably the most common. Red, white, and black sands are found in many places.
What disease is caused by bacteria in soil?
Foot and mouth disease. Tuberculosis is found in soil and may stay dormant for many years. When the dirt is disturbed the bacteria may become airborne and infect the lungs.
How many atoms are there in one gram of hydrogen?
It depends on the atomic mass of a substance. To find out, divide the 1 by the atomic mass of the element (found on the periodic table), then multiply by 6.02*1023. Ag=(1/Am)*6.02*1023 Where Am=atomic mass of the element, and Ag=the number of atoms in a gram.
How many species are in a gram of dirt?
5000
What kind of organism converts nitrogen into a usable form of plants?
Bacteria
How many species of bacteria classified?
reasearchers have found 4000 different types of bacteria in 1 gram of soil. Their are about 5*1030 numbers of bacteria on this planet
Are all bacteria gram and pathogenic?
Of course they do not. There are many other bacteria
How many type of bacterias you have?
there are two different types of bacteria 1) gram positive bacteria 2) gram negative bacteria these two bacteria differ in the peptidoglycon layer which constitutes the cell membrane
What is the type of coating on a bacteria cell?
In bacteria, the cell wall is composed of peptidoglycan, and is essential to the survival of many bacteria. Bacteria have been classified into Gram-positive and Gram-negative based on the structure of the cell wall. Gram-positive bacteria possess thick cell wall consisting of many layers of peptidoglycan and teichoic acids. Gram-negative bacteria have relatively thin cell wall consisting of few layers of peptidoglycan.
What are the kinds of bacteria?
There are MANY kinds of bacteria. They are classified by phylums, which are: Based on shape aerobic and anaerobic gram positive and gram negative autotrophic and heterotrophic
Why would you want to know if a gram stain is positive or negative?
Gram negative bacteria (pink gram stain) contain no outer cell membrane, while gram positive bacteria (purple gram stain) do contain an outer cell membrane. Gram negative and positive bacteria can respond differently to antibiotics. Many only work on only one of the two bacteria types. A gram stain is also the first step in identifying a bacteria, dividing bacteria into two large and distinct groups.
What is gram positive flora in urine?
It means your bacterial balance in the body is normal! No alarm requiring further work-up, if you have excess bacterial activities in your body then the good bacterial that balances your body's immune systems will no longer be able to fight your infections hence a bacterial infection especially the gram positive ones can be bad!.Any answers out there, first of all the word flora simply means "good"The above is incorrect. You should have NO bacteria in the urine, if it was done properly with the clean catch method. If there is, there is an infection. If many bacteria, antibiotic treatment may be necessary. In this case they found many different bacteria that are Gram+. Flora means that these are from the skin or gut. That is were they are normally found. If found elsewhere, they can cause an infection. Gram+ bacteria are most often from the skin. Gram- from the gut.
What name the 3 types of bacteria?
There are many types of bacteria. It depends on what you are looking at as "type". There are cocci, bacilli, spirchetes (among other shapes) all referring to the shape of the bacteria. Of those they may be Gram positive or Gram Negative. There are anaerobes, aerobes, microaerophillic, and falcultative - all referring to the oxygen requirements of the bacteria. There are many other "types", but I would go with shape and Gram +/- such as "Gram + Cocci" as one type.
What is the importance of gram positive and gram negative bacteria?
Typical gram-positive bacteria are those staphylococci that produce boils; typical gram-negative bacteria are the bacilli that cause whooping cough; typical gram-variable bacteria are the bacilli that cause tuberculosis.
What is ceram neg bacilli?
I think you mean gram negative bacilli. They get their name as those who do not retain crystal violet dye in the gram staining protocol. Many gram negative bacteria are pathenogenic or disease causing. e-coli and salmonella are gram negative bacteria.
How many calories per gram can be found in carbohydrates?
4 calories per gram of carbohydrate
What is the scientific name for vibrio?
Vibrio is a genus of Gram-negative bacteria with many known species.
