- Examine the graph shown below of a liquid culture growth curve for S. pneumoniaegrowing in minimal broth containing both glucose and lactose in equal concentrations as a potential carbon source. Answer the following questions: a) Name the growth phases labelled as I, II and III, explain the observed pattern of growth at each of these stages in the curve b) Where would the concentration of cAMP be low and why? c) In what phase would β-galactosidase be high and why? d) What kind of overall growth pattern does this curve illustrate?arrow_forwardAzotobacter vinelandii is being studied for the production of alginate from sucrose. In a continuous culture at 28°C with ammonia as a nitrogen source, the alginate yield obtained was 4 g/g of oxygen consumed. It is desired to produce alginate at a rate of 5 kg/h. As the viscosity of alginate in water is considerable, the energy related to stirring the broth cannot be neglected, and the fermenter is equipped with a Rushton-type turbine. For satisfactory agitation and aeration speed, the estimated energy requirement is 1.5 kW. Calculate the cooling requirement.arrow_forwarda.) which two of the following three species are more closely related: Entamoeba histolytica, Escherichia coli, Entamoeba coli?
