A microorganism was streaked onto 4 nutrient agar plates and the plates were incubated at
different temperatures for 24 hours. The results are shown in the picture below. Which of the

streaked on all four plates)

37°C
64°C
25°C
O proteins in this organism function optimally only at 37 degrees Centigrade
O proteins in this organism function optimally only at 4 degrees Centigrade
O The proteins in this organism function over a broad range of temperature
O proteins in this organism function over a narrow temperature range.

The ingredients in the MR/VP Broth are: Peptone (protein) 7g Glucose 5g Phosphate buffer 5g Distilled water 1L Examine the above figure. This figure shows how the pH in the Methyl Red and Voges-Proskauer (MR-VP) broth changes during incubation from time zero to 48 hours with a VP-positive bacteria species. VP-positive bacteria initially produce lactic acid and temporarily lower the pH, but the lowered pH activates the 2,3-butanediol fermentation pathway. Accumulation of its neutral end products such as acetoin and 2,3-butanediol raises the pH by the end of the incubation time. The acetoin that accumulates in the broth also reacts with the reagents added after incubation to produce a red color. If the reagents were added and the results were recorded early, at 24 hours rather than at the full incubation time at 48 hours, would the color result for the VP (+) bacteria be the same at 24 hours than at 48 hours? If different, explain how the color result is different. What chemical…

If the temperature of the incubator were to be increased from 35 to 45°C, how would this affect the bacterial growth curve of E. coli? (optimum temperature 20o-40oC; most human pathogens)
A microbiologist has isolated a new strain of bacteria, and is trying to characterize aspects of its growth. Three flasks of the same media have different amounts of NaCl added. Other growth conditions are identical, and the flasks inoculated at the same time. At regular intervals over a 3 hour period, culture samples are taken and turbidity is measured. Here are the absorbance values over time in a table and graphed.

TSA plates of microorganisms grown at 30°C or 37°C In words, describe the differences you see for each organism (E. coli M.,luteus ,S. marcescens and S. saprophyticus) grown at 30°C or 37°C (ie, amount of growth, color, etc
Helicobacter pylori, a bacterium that causes stomach ulcers, can grow in medium with a pH above 5. It can survive but not grow in pH 2 medium as long as the medium contains Urea. You inoculate a pH 2 broth with 1,000,000 H. pylori and for 8 hours the organism did not grow. The next morning however, the medium has become quite turbid, suggesting that the organism has grown. Explain how this could happen. What phylum and class does this organism belong?

The number of bacterial cells in a culture broth is to be determined by a culture technique. Serial dilutions were performed and a 1 mL aliquot from each dilution was mixed with warm molten agar and poured into a Petri dish. The numbers of bacterial colony forming units (CFU) after overnight incubation are shown in the table below. What is the number of colony forming units per mL of the culture broth? Choose only the most appropriate plate for your calculation. Give your answer as the number only (do not add text for the units). You may use scientific notation with the format 1.12e+6 (that is, 1.12 x 106 cfu/mL). (Note: Canvas will then display your answer a whole number.)
