If a cancerous mutation occurs in a stem cell in the bone marrow, what process would cause the differentiated cells to also be cancerous? a.) Meiosis
b.) Cell Differentiation
c.) Mitosis
d.) Cell Specialization

You have been asked to lead a demonstration for the undergraduate microbiology lab course about the uses of negative staining when studying bacteria. a "negative" stain does not stain the bacterial cell itself but stains the space between cells. under magnification, the acidic (negativelycharged) nature of the stain will be repelled by the negatively charged bacterial cell wall and willleave the cell colorless in a stained background. negative stains are used primarily to reveal the presence of negatively charged bacterial capsules; therefore, they are also called capsule stains. encapsulated cells appear to have a halo surrounding them. the negative stain procedure does not require heat fixation, which limits any chances of alteration in bacterial cell shape and size. the bacterial suspension is added to a drop of stain, such as nigrosin or eosin, and drawn across the glass slide using a coverslip. nigrosin staining-not safranin staining-of klebsiella pneumoniae will allow for the visualization of the cell shape and the determination of the presence of a capsule. true/false

Drag each tile to the correct box. arrange the phases of mitosis in the correct order. 1 (condensation of chromosomes) 2 (separation of chromosomes) 3 (formation of spindle fibers) 4 (alignment of chromosomes in the center of the cell) 5 (pinching of the cell membrane)

How can a geological time scale best be reconstructed? a) comparing vestigial structures in living species b) comparing homologous structures in living species c) examining homologous structures in fossil remains d) examining the written records of scientists from past cultures
