You a clinical lab worker. Your boss hands you a sample and asks you to identify the genus of bacteria in the sample. Using a microscope, you see long chains spherical bacteria, indicative of repeated divisions along one plane. To what genus do you think bacterial sample belongs? (Choose all that apply.) Group of answer choices Lactobacillus Lactococcus Staphylococcus Streptococcus Caulobacter

Name 2 stains that can be used to visualize structures in a bacterial cell membrance

microbiology lab experiment: Simple and Differential staining, Bacterial Shapes Why do the slides have to be heat-fixed before staining? What would happen if the slides were not heat-fixed and then stained?

Staining characteristics of some bacteria.   Please help me. I'm having trouble exactly figuring this.

How does the shape of a bacteria cell affect the bacteria’s survival in the environment?  To answer this question: Calculate the surface-to-volume ratio of a coccus, assuming it is a perfect sphere. Where radius (r) = 0.91 μm. surface-to-volume ratio of a coccus = ________________   Calculate the surface-to-volume ratio of a bacillus, assuming it is a cylinder. Where r = 0.5 μm and height (h) = 4 μm surface-to-volume ratio of a bacillus = _________________________   The values provided for the radius of the coccus and the radius and height for the bacillus will give approximately the same volume for the coccus and the bacillus. However, the surface area will differ. Now compare the surface-to-volume ratio of a coccus to a bacillus calculated with these values. Which has the higher surface area for the same amount of volume? Considering the coccus and bacillus of equal volume from the question above,   Which is more likely to survive in a dry environment? Explain your answer.…

Someone can please help me to fill in the blanks by compare and contrast domain bacteria and domain arches using the chart below
