2. Research on a specific bacteria and list down all the characteristics of that
bacteria .Make a test or plan of how are you going to incorporate the specific trait
of that bacteria to that fruit fly.EXPLAIN
Vibrio cholerae
-is a "comma" shaped Gram-negative bacteria with a single, polar flagellum for
movement.
CHARACTERISTICS
-a gram negative, non-spore forming, curved rod
-can cause cholera, which is an acute, diarrheal illness that can result in severe
dehydration and even death within a matter of hours.
- gram-negative rods
-It is also possible for Vibrio cholerae bacteria to live in the environment in
brackish (saltwater) rivers and coastal waters.
-It is very motile and has a single polar flagellum
-These bacteria are not likely to spread directly from one person to another
-That means they can survive either with or without oxygen.
2. Make test or plan of how are you going to incorporate the specific trait of that
bacteria to that fruit fly.
-->Begin to produce their toxin, which is the main cause of the characteristic :
watery diarrhea.
-->Based on the research that the fly or a related arthropod may be a true host of
V. cholerae in nature.
