What else can I help you with?
When a substance is added to solid medium which inhibits growth of unwanted bacteria but permits the growth of wanted bacteria the medium is known as?
selective medium
Does bacteria get rid of waste?
a chemical called antibiotic that limit the growth of or kills other bacteria.
What are the three different growth patterns of bacteria?
Diplo- is a prefix that refers to a paired arrangement of cell growth. The prefix Staphylo- describes an arrangement of cells that resemble grapes. Strepto- is a prefix that refers to an arrangement of chains of cells. ( hope this helps)
Is bacteria growth is mostly a simple increase in size?
No, bacteria growth involves both an increase in size (cell growth) and an increase in number (cell division). Bacteria reproduce by a process called binary fission, in which one bacterium divides into two daughter cells. This enables exponential growth of bacterial populations under favorable conditions.
Role of bile salt in macconkey agar?
Bile salts in MacConkey agar inhibit the growth of Gram-positive bacteria by disrupting their cell membranes. This selective property allows for the preferential growth of Gram-negative bacteria on MacConkey agar, making it a useful medium for the isolation and differentiation of enteric bacteria.
What is phototropism -?
Phototropism refers to the growth of certain living organisms (mainly plants and bacteria) which occurs towardsa light source.Positive phototropism will be expressed by growing towards light, negative phototrophism will be expressed by growing away from light.It is the directional growth whereas the direction of growth is determined by the direction of the light source. An example would be Heliotrope (sunflowers).also it is the growth of a plant in the direction of its light source
Do Bacteria Affect Plant Growth?
It increase plant growth.
Agent that slows or stops the growth of bacteria?
Antibiotics inhibit the growth of bacteria.
What does the bacteria growth graph reveal about the rate of proliferation over time?
The bacteria growth graph shows how the rate of bacteria proliferation changes over time. It can reveal patterns such as exponential growth, plateauing, or decline in growth rate. By analyzing the graph, we can understand how quickly the bacteria population is increasing or decreasing over time.
Is acute necrotizing ulcerative gingivitis is caused by the abnormal growth of bacteria in the mouth?
Abnormal growth of bacteria in the mouth.
Why do bacteria grow weak in the freezer?
Bacteria all have a specific optimum growth temperature. When the temperature is not at the optimum, growth is slowed down. When it is too cold, the bacteria will still be alive, but growth will be very slow and spoilage will happen slower.
Do bacteria prefer acidic or alkaline environments for growth and survival?
Bacteria generally prefer neutral to slightly acidic environments for growth and survival.
What are the 3 growth patterns of bacteria?
The three growth patterns of bacteria are exponential growth, stationary phase, and death phase. Exponential growth is when bacteria multiply rapidly, stationary phase is when growth rate equals death rate, and death phase is when bacteria start dying off due to nutrient depletion or waste accumulation.
Does dog saliva really kill bacteria?
It can inhibit the growth of some bacteria but dog saliva contains bacteria.
What acidity level is optimal for the growth of bacteria?
The optimal acidity level for the growth of bacteria is typically around pH 6.5 to 7.5. Bacteria generally thrive in neutral to slightly acidic environments.
Does heat stop the growth of bacteria?
yes
What is an organism that shows exponential growth?
Bacteria.
