The worksheet asks you to draw how
Staphylococcus would appear, based on the description in question 14.
Let’s break it down:
- The text says:
> “*Streptococcus* is a bacterium that is circular and forms chains.” → So imagine round bacteria linked like beads on a string.
> “*Staphylococcus* is a bacterium that is also circular but occurs in clumps.” → So instead of chains, think of them grouped together like grapes or a cluster.
You’re given an example drawing for *Streptococcus* — it shows two rows of blue circles connected in lines (chains).
For *Staphylococcus*, you should draw
round shapes (circles) grouped together in a messy cluster, not in neat lines. Think of a bunch of marbles stuck together in a pile.
Since this is a drawing task, your final answer isn’t a number or word — it’s a sketch. But since we can’t draw here, I’ll describe exactly what to draw so you can do it on paper.
✔ What to draw:
- Draw about 8–12 small circles (like dots or tiny balls).
- Group them closely together in one area — some touching, some overlapping slightly.
- Don’t arrange them in straight lines or neat rows.
- Make it look like a random clump — maybe shaped like a grape cluster or a snowball made of dots.
That’s it! You’ve now drawn Staphylococcus as described.
Final Answer:
Draw a cluster of circular shapes grouped together randomly (not in chains), resembling a bunch of grapes or a clump of dots.
