Which statement best describes the relationship between a tissue and an organ system?

You are working up a throat culture and notice beta hemolytic colonies. The isolate is catalase negative, so you set up a bacitracin susceptibility (A Disk). The results are pictured below. What is the most likely identification of this organism?

You have isolated a gram-positive cocci in tetrads from a skin swab. The colonies are a mustard yellow color. It is catalase positive, coagulase negative, and oxidase positive. Which of the following is the identity of the organism?

You are working up a patient’s wound culture. You have pure, 4+ growth of this beta hemolytic yellow organism. You do a quick gram stain, and it shows gram-positive cocci in clusters. What would your next steps be in working up this culture? Be sure to mention any biochemicals/tests that would be RELEVANT in furthering this identification.
