1. Compare and contrast anaerobes. Why were no microbes noted upon aerobic and anaerobic culture?2. Investigate the properties and characteristics of M. Fortuitum. Where is this organism typically found (reservoirs)?3. Why must the Acid Fast Stain be performed to identify organisms of the Genus Mycobacterium?4. Why did Dr. Chan prescribe two antibiotics rather than one?5. How does doxycycline kill bacteria ( cellular target)?6. Why were the antibiotics prescribed for an extended period of 4 months?7. No organisms were noted upon Gram Staining, yet the Enrichment culture yielded M. Fortuitum after several days. Provide an explanation.

Explanation:

americans began to notice growing differences between the northern and southern sections of the country. there were more people living in cities in the north, which made it more urban. more people lived on farms in the south, which made it more rural. while many people were farmers in the northern states, there were now other ways to make a living, such as working in mechanical cotton gins factories manufacturing cloth, tools and other goods. people in the north supported high tariffs on goods imported from europe because the extra cost encouraged people to “buy american” instead. in the southern states, planters did not like tariffs because they sold most of their production to europe and bought their tools from there as well. southerners believed the protective tariff was something that only northern factory owners keep their profits high. so the southern politicians came up with an idea. they would opt out. they would simply ignore the protective tariff. it was ‘null and void’ in south carolina. the state would not collect the taxes on goods imported into south carolina, no matter what the president said they had to do. this decision led to the nullification crisis.
