Question

What can you conclude about the relationship between toxin secretion and culture density in S. aureus? Select the three statements that are true.A. Cultures grown at high density secrete significant amounts of toxin.B The transition from culture densities that do not secrete toxin to those that do secrete toxin occurs quickly after a threshold is reached.C. There is no relationship between culture density and the amount of secreted toxin for S. aureus.D. Cultures grown at low density do not secrete significant amounts of toxin.E. The relationship between culture density and toxin secretion is linear over the range of culture densities sampled.

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

In this case, S.aureus shows a relationship between toxin secretion and culture density of which we can deduce that

■A high amount of toxin is produced at high density by the grown culture

■ A low amount of toxin is produced at low density by the grown culture

■At a particular threshold, culture density that do not produce toxin undergoes a quick a transition those that secret toxin
