Match the following

(1) Likely found in an autotroph
(2) H antigen
(3) counterclockwise rotation of flagella/flagellum
(4) PHB granule

(A) pili
(B) produces "tumbles"
(C) flagellum
(D) carboxysome
(E) LPS layer
(F) glycogen storage
(G) lipid storage
(H) produces "runs" towards an attractant

Respuesta :

(1) Likely found in an autotroph - carboxysomes

(2) H antigen - flagellum

(3) Counterclockwise rotation of flagella/flagellum - produces “runs” towards an attractant

(4) PHB granule – glycogen storage

Explanation:

Autotrophic bacteria contain microcompartments called carboxysomes. These are protein subunits containing enzymes which involve in carbon dioxide concentration or fixation mechanism.

H antigen is the protein found in the thread-like slender filaments of the flagella.  

Counterclockwise rotation of the flagella produces “runs” or a swimming movement which facilitates bacterial walk or movement.

PHB – photohydroxybutyrate molecules are the biopolymers produced by bacteria when carbon nutrients like glycogen granules are available in excess and convert them to carbon storage reserves.
