There are many reasons for identifying an unknown bacterium. The reasons range from medical purposes, such as determining if the unknown could cause ailments in living things or knowing what microorganisms are needed to make antibiotics to other purposes such as knowing the exact microorganism has to be used to make certain foods. This experiment was done by applying methods in order to identify an unknown bacterium.…
Bacteria are a single cell micro-organism that can only be seen from under a microscope. It lives off the nutrients from its surroundings.…
The over-arching field of study which the article falls under is Microbiology (there was a small clue in the title of the journal). Microbiology is the area of science concerned with the study of microorganisms, usually with a focus on diseases and infectious microbes. I found that there was some helpful information tags on the publishers’ webpage and noted that this article was classified under “cell and molecular biology of microbes”. After reading the article a few times I found that there were a number of sub-disciplines covered in the journal article, such as microorganism genetics, pathology. Genetics covers the organism’s ‘blue-prints’ and pathology is the study of disease.…
Bacteria identification is accomplished in a number of ways. Two common tools microbiologists use to identify unknown bacteria include dichotomous key and biochemical tests. The dichotomous key is useful when a microbiologist only needs to know which group an unknown microbe belongs to on a general level. When a microbiologist needs to identify a specific bacterium, biochemical tests are used.…
As we know bacteria comes in various classes and are distinguished by their shapes, chemical configuration, source of energy either sunlight or chemicals, nutritional requisites and biochemical actions.…

The purpose of this is knowing the types of bacteria that exist in our environment and diseases caused by them, and how treat it.…
Microbiology is a specialized area of biology that places an emphasis on microorganisms. Several microorganisms are included in this subject, such as bacteria, fungi, algae and protozoa.…
Having the ability to collect and identify unknown microorganisms is vital in health and medicine. This capability is important for a variety of reasons, such as knowing the causative agent of disease, knowing if the microorganism obtains any beneficial properties and knowing the correct microorganism to use to create a successful antibiotic. Implementing the experimental methods learned thus far in the microbiology laboratory allowed an unknown bacterium to be identified as a result of this study. This study allows the student to exercise their ability to use and understand sterile techniques, transmission, and prevention of microorganisms.…
A high school degree is good enough but you need to take courses for this job to get hired. You can go to college to get a higher level of knowledge and going to college you get better paid. Having an associates degree is what they are mainly looking for. When going to college for this job they want you to take basic classes but also animal anatomy and other animal offered classes. Like nurses with human patients, veterinary techs can choose to specialize. Veterinary technicians can earn certification in areas as in emergency care, diagnostic imaging, animal training, dentistry, surgery and anesthesia. Becoming certified requires doing and passing an exam, additional education might be necessary. For example, research facility managers rather have candidates who are certified by the American Association for Laboratory Animal Science. This requires courses in animal health, veterinary facility management or experience and training in animal…
To become a zoologist I will require a bachelor's degree for most entry-level jobs If I want to do most research or teaching jobs, I will need to get my master's or PhD. The experience I need before starting a job will be acquired through courses and research done during a degree program. I must have skills in science, critical thinking, complex problem solving, decision-making, active…
Becoming a veterinarian can be hard work and requires college education. “Veterinarians must complete a Doctor of Veterinary Medicine (D.V.M. or V.M.D.) degree at an accredited college of veterinary medicine” (“How To Become a Veterinarian”). Veterinarians require high education because they perform important surgeries on animals. They also are giving animals doses of medicine. Most veterinarian jobs might not require a bachelor’s degree,…
