Question

I will fan and give medal! What are some examples of how humans interact with sponges?

Answer 1

Either biofilm or planktonic form of a gram-negative proteobacteria, Pseudomonas aeruginosa is known to colonize the surfaces of K. Variolosa. Although this bacteria is opportunistic pathogen to human diseases such as urinary infection, respiratory system infections, dermatitis, bone and joint infections, and gastrointestinal infections, it is symbiotically good for K. Variolosa. (11) P. Aeruginosa produces antibiotic compounds such as diketopiperazines and two other phenazine alkaloid antibiotics. These antibiotics inhibit the growth of several gram-positive microorganisms. (12) This bacteria in turn have known to receive acetate and other carbon sources as nutritions from K.Variolosa.
