– Identifying Bacteria Bacteria identification is accomplished in a number of ways. Two common tools microbiologists use to identify unknown bacteria include dichotomous key and biochemical tests. The dichotomous key is useful when a microbiologist only needs to know which group an unknown microbe belongs to on a general level. When a microbiologist needs to identify a specific bacterium‚ biochemical tests are used. PART ONE: GENERAL BACTERIA IDENTIFICATION Review the dichotomous key in Figure

On November 11‚ 1921‚ the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier was established in order to remember the men and women and at least give credit to the people who fought for our country but couldn’t identify them. I should be chosen for the wreath laying at the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier because I want to show them my absolute sincerest gratitude towards them. There are no words to explain how much obligation I have for all the soldiers who have fought for my freedom. This is important to me because I would

experiment is to determine the unknown DNA plasmid using restriction enzymes and conducting electrophoresis finally comparing the resulting fragments with the known restriction map. In this lab‚ it succeeds in showing the fragments. In this report we will discuss the‚ results‚ limitations and possible errors. Introduction In biology restriction enzymes are used in several ways to modify and manipulate DNA molecules. One common use is to compare pieces of DNA from one that is unknown‚ with fragments of DNA

The first test conducted on unknown bacteria 32 was the Gram stain. From this stain‚ unknown 32 was found to be a Gram-positive cocci. This test eliminated all possible Gram-negative bacteria‚ Gram-positive rods and Gram-positive spirillium. Next‚ the endospore test determined whether or not the Gram-positive bacteria contained endospores. With the use of malachite green‚ steam‚ and safranin it was found that unknown bacteria 32 did not contain endospores. This eliminated Gram-positive cocci Sporosarcina

A Comparative Essay between “Disabled” and “An Unknown Girl” Moniza Alvi reflects on India as her hand is hennaed by “an unknown girl” “in the evening bazaar”. The predominantly upbeat mood of this poem contrasts with the pessimistic mood in “Disabled” written by Wilfred Owen‚ a soldier in the First World War‚ stating his anti-war view through a poem on the life of a young soldier “sewn short at elbow”‚ crippled by war. In his poem‚ the difference between past and present allows Owen to reveal

Conclusion: (Identity‚ % error‚ other evidence‚ how to improve) The identity of Unknown A is the compound cobalt(II) chloride hexahydrate (CoCl₂•6H₂O).This is justified by the similarities in color of red-purple crystal like grains‚ which is significant in identifying the product out of the eight suggested identities. Only two had similar characteristics which were CoCl₂•6H₂O and CoSO₄•6H₂O. Before unknown A was heated‚ there was a notable common physical property of the substance being red crystal

Purpose: The purpose of this experiment was to be able to apply our knowledge of chemistry to identify 10 unknown elements that were presented to us. We were allowed to use Bunsen burners‚ hydrochloric acid‚ use PH paper to test if the unknown solution is an acid or a base‚ and precipitate each unknown solution with each other. Procedure / Data / Conclusions: Unknown #1: I found solution 1 to be KI. While doing the precipitate reactions‚ I found that it precipitates only
