Extracted text: The table below shows the response of our ESKAPE safe relatives to 4 bacteria isolated from a master grid. We do not know the identity or any characteristics of the unknown bacteria. Each safe relative was spread onto a petri dish using aseptic technique. A grid pattern was taped to each plate and the unknown bacteria were patched into one of the squares. If there was no inhibition visible, including with a magnifying lens, the result was listed as -. If there was an inhibition zone between 1 and 10mm in diameter, the result is listed as +. If the inhibition zone was greater than 10mm, the result is listed as ++. Page 50 in your research guide states: "Some antibiotics are broad spectrum, meaning that they affect a wide range of bacteria. Other antibiotics have a narrow spectrum of activity. One anatomical feature that plays a significant role in the susceptibility of a microbe to a particular antibiotic is its cell wall composition (discussed in Section 8)". Research the cell wall composition of the safe relatives. Research the meaning of broad and narrow spectrum antibiotics. ESKAPE Unknown Unknown Unknown Unknown Unknown Relative Bacteria Bacteria Bacteria Bacteria Bacteria 1 2 3 4 Bacillus subtilis ++ ++ Staphylococcus ++ + aureus Escherichia coli ++ Pseudomonas + ++ aeruginosa Klebsiella ++ ++ aerogenes Erwinia ++ carotovora Which, if any, of the unknown bacteria produced a broad spectrum antibiotic?
