A)staining characteristics.
B)amino acid sequences of enzymes.
C)nucleic acid-base composition of DNA sequences.
D)capability of a microbe to perform a specific enzymatic activity.
E)All of the answers are correct.

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Biochemical tests are used to determine the capability of a microbe to perform a specific enzymatic activity. This can help in identifying the microbe and its properties. Amino acid sequences and nucleic acid-base composition are determined through other techniques such as sequencing, while staining characteristics can provide some information about the microbe's structure but not its function. Therefore, D is the best choice.
