- 2) You contract an infection from an unknown pathogenic organism. Your doctor conducts a biochemical analysis of the pathogen and discovers that it contains chitin. The pathogen is most likely a Group of answer choices bacterium susceptible to antibiotics protist fungus bacterium resistant to antibiotics tapewormarrow_forwardEach of the following statement FALSE. Tell me what is incorrect with the statement and correct it when possible. For example, if the statement says: the sky is red during daytime. You would answer: the sky isn’t red during daytime, it is blue. a. Staphylococcus aureus use MreB proteins to organize their morphology (shape) into cocci. b. Most bacteria will have maximum growth in a glucose-rich environment such as maple syrup. c. The table below shows that Streptococcus pyogenes is a facultative halophile. d. Your lab supervisor asks you to grow a new bacterium they got from a collaborator. You grow them in the suggested nutrient-rich media, and you notice that as the log phase growth progresses, the bacteria seem to turn purple. You mention it to your supervisor and ask whether it is the gradient from very high to low nutrient bioavailability that induces metabolic changes which induces the production of a purple pigment. Your supervisor tells you that is unlikely.
