Step 1
Endospore staining is a technique used to visualize bacterial endospores, which are highly resistant structures formed by some bacteria. In this case, we don't have the pictures to analyze, but let's assume Picture A shows endospore staining. Show more…

14. Bacillus subtilis is an obligate aerobe. Pink color develops when B. subtilis is grown on phenol red lactose broth. What color of the medium would you expect if this bacterium is grown on phenol red glucose broth? 15. Describe the differences between a fecal and non-fecal coliform and give examples of both. 29. Name 3 or more pathogenic species of acid-fast bacteria and the diseases they cause. 30. Why is it important to stir up the cell suspension before recording the turbidity of the suspension?
Use the micrograph of the Gram stain to draw conclusions and make predictions about the indicated bacterium. View the image in greater detail. Based on your observation of the indicated bacterium in this Gram stain, select ALL appropriate statements. The indicated bacterium is a bacillus. The indicated bacterium is a spirochete. The indicated bacterium has a strepto- formation. The indicated bacterium is Gram-negative. The indicated bacterium is Gram-positive. The indicated bacterium produces endotoxin (also known as lipopolysaccharide, LPS). Eosin Methylene Blue (EMB) or MacConkey agar would NOT be good choices of media to grow the indicated bacterium.
