I had # 8 organism‚ Bacillus subtilis. Bacillus subtilis is a Gram-positive bacteria‚ rod-shaped and catalase positive. In order to figure out what is my unknown organism for this assignment‚ I had to perform series of tests. First was the glucose‚ lactose‚ and sucrose test. Through these three tests‚ I was able to detect the ability of the microorganism to ferment a specific carbohydrate. Fermentation reactions are observed by the color change in pH. In class‚ we used phenol red as the pH indicator

The Anatomical and Physical Features of Frogs Abstract: People have always wondered how frogs have the capability to live in both wet and dry environments. So why not dissect a frog to find out how. Frogs have both physical features like their skin that allows them to breath in water. They also have anatomical features like humans that allow them breath air just like us. Introduction As many people have learned throughout elementary and middle school amphibians are animals that have the

The Life of Escherichia Coli Escherichia Coli 0157:H7 bacterium can live in the intestines of cattle‚ therefore meat can become infected during slaughtering. You can contract this bacterium by eating undercooked meat‚ especially ground beef. Escherichia Coli 0157:H7 can also be contracted by eating contaminated fruits or vegetables‚ as well by drinking raw fruit juices or milk‚ or sewage contaminated water. Infection can also be spread via person to person. Escherichia Coli 0157:H7 can also

Identifying the Unknown Bacteria: Bacillus cereus Brittany Moy Coastline Community College Abstract Bacillus cereus is a Gram-positive‚ facultative aerobic‚ spore-forming‚ rod-shaped bacterium that is widely distributed among the environment. Introduction The reason for identification of unknown bacteria was to help students recognize different bacteria through different biochemical tests and characteristics. This is important in the medical field because identification of unknown bacteria

Differences between colonies: Religious: The Pilgrims who settled at Plymouth were "Puritans" vs. Anglicans at Jamestown. Plus‚ Plymouth was founded for religious reasons while Jamestown was founded for economic reasons. Don’t get me wrong--religion was critical for both groups but the Puritans left England because they were religious outcasts while the settlers at Jamestown were there for economic benefit and had investors. Labor: Jamestown was initially settled under martial law and the military

Kirat Hundle 1. What is the difference between an element and a compound? An element is an isotope made of the number of neutrons it has. A compound is a substance made of two or more different elements (a mixture). 2. What is the periodic table? A periodic table is where the chemical elements are organized based on their atomic number (number of protons in the nucleus)‚ electron arrangement‚ and chemical properties. 3. Give two examples of each of the four major mineral groups (silicates‚ carbonates

Systematic Identification of Bacillus subtilis and Serratia marcescens Through a Battery of Tests and Plates Introduction: The purpose of this experiment was to use a systematic battery of tube tests and plates designed to lead to identification of two unknown bacterial species‚ from the combination of all results. A sample of bacteria was used‚ labeled “Sample 4”‚ from which both species was to be obtained‚ one gram positive and one gram negative. Table 1 is a list of the possible bacteria to

Abstract The purpose of this experiment was to study the transfer of genetic information on plasmid F’lac by using Escherichia coli. Plasmid transfer was measured by using two different methods. The first one was by using selection and contraselection with three antibiotics: streptomycin(which was replaced by naladixic acid for the second part of the experiment)‚ampicillin and kanamycin and the second one by using a colour indicator ( X-gal). As significant results‚ the percentage of transfer for
