Arafura file snakes are large, aquatic, non-venomous snakes found in the flood-plains of australian rivers. they feed only on fish found in the rivers. it has been observed that heavy rainfall in the wet season in one year leads to prolonged inundation of the floodplains lasting a year or longer. it has also been observed that these snakes remain in good physical condition after a flood. explain how the file snake population in a region is likely to be affected by the prolonged inundation of a flood-plain.

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
