THIS IS A MULTIPART QUESTION, PLEASE ANSWER ALL QUESTION
Using the image:
5. Identify whether the organism is a green alga, a diatom, a dinoflagellate, Eubacterium, or a Cyanobacterium. Explain the characteristic(s) that led you to that identification.
6. a. What type of microscopy (brightfield, darkfield, or phase contrast) was to obtain the image? Explain how you can tell.
b. Name a different type of microscopy would be also appropriate to use to visualize the organism in the image. How would the image change if you used that type of microscopy instead?
7. The image was taken using a microscope that has 10X, 40X, and 100X objectives. What is a possible magnification for the ocular lens on this microscope? Explain your response or show calculations.

- You are a physician working in a hospital. Your patient is a 65-year-old individual who has been living on the street. Their symptoms include trouble breathing, weakness, and most recently coughing up blood. When gram stained, the bacterium shows no color and most of the antibiotics are not reducing the infection. After reviewing the information from the last physician, you prescribe Isoniazid. Select all of the answers that are correct. Mycolic acid is present in fungal cells Mycolic acid is a waxy substance that can repel many molecules An organism that has mycolic acid has to have access to oxygen and grows very slowly. If there is not gram stain then there is no bacteria present Isonazid targets and destroys mycolic acid. ►arrow_forwardTable 14.
