You are observing a gram stain of rod-shaped microorganisms that are linked in a chain and stain purple. how would you describe these bacteria using the correct terminology for the cell shape and arrangement?

according to the question, the observed microorganism have the following characteristics:

1. rod shaped.

2. linked in a chain.

3. stains purple.

The rod shaped bacteria are referred as the bacilli. The bacteria, which are found linked in a chain are given a prefix strepto. The bacteria, which stain purple with the gram stains are called gram positive bacteria.

Hence, from the information, the possible microbe is gram positive Streptobacillus.

explanation:

many plants naturally reproduce this way, but it can also be induced artificially. horticulturalists have developed asexual propagation techniques that use vegetative plant parts to replicate plants. success rates and difficulty of propagation vary greatly. monocotyledons typically lack a vascular cambium and therefore are harder to propagate.

the water is warmed up by the sun and then it evaporates into the atmosphere. the sunlight warms the water by its heat. water is then cooled down and condensation takes place. the water then finally returns back to the earth by the process of precipitation in the form of rain or ice.
