Microbiology Personal Statement
I plan to major in biology, specifically microbiology. I dream of being a microbiologist and graduate with at least a master's degree. Scholarly, I will continue to put forth my maximum effort into all my classes. I will test myself and work hard at what doesn’t come effortless to me. I never plan to slack at any time and put distractions before my education. I fell in love with biology when I took biology in my freshman year of high school, everything fascinated me from viruses to the cell cycle. I’m thrilled by all the things that constantly work together or alone during the day and night to keep us functioning human beings. There is a plethora of things that goes on in our body that keeps us alive and ultimately determines how we look like

    I was introduced to the field I am interested in from my 9th grade biology class. Prior to the course, I had never taken biology or any science, for that matter, that had captured my attention such as this year-long experience. I was intrigued by the subject and fascinated with all the advances in society that have been made by scientists throughout the years. The possibility of being able to do this in the future kept me engaged and I further pursued this interest by currently taking AP Biology. In addition, I was inspired by the change that scientists can make through research and…

    There are three types of environments in which cells are located which include isotonic, hypotonic and hypertonic. In an isotonic environment, the amount of water and solute are the same both inside and outside of the cell. As water drifts into the a cell, the same amount flows out creating a balanced environment both inside and outside of the cell. When there is a high level of water on the outside of the cell and a high amount of solute inside the cell, water will be drawn inside of the cell creating a hypotonic solution. The increase in water inside the cell causes the cell to become engorged and erupt. In a hypertonic environment, water will leave the cell, as the amount of water in the cell is higher than that outside of the cell. As a cell looses water in a hypertonic environment it becomes smaller in size and withers. Isotonic environments are preferred by most microbes for the most advantageous growth, although some live in slightly hypotonic solutions. (Alonzo, 2008)…

    Some common mechanisms by which antimicrobial resistance emerges are incomplete dosing where the bacteria adapts, random mutations that are beneficial are conserved in the species, previous exposure to antibiotics, and some bacteria are naturally transformable; meaning they can absorb the genomic material of other bacteria into their own.…

    One of my most vivid memories from my childhood was the day I received a plastic toy stethoscope from my grandfather. Years later, I realize how it was not only a new plaything, but one that would inspire me to choose my future career path. While medicine is a tough field of study, I know that it is tougher still to toil the earth as my grandfather did in the hot indian summers. At his side after a long day’s work, I would help him at the night clinic he opened for free vaccinations. As I entered high school, I strived to embody such initiative and leadership by running for the Student Council and serving as Class Representative. Taking AP Biology and AP Environmental Science ignited my fascination about how living organisms and cellular systems effortlessly work together, grow, and adapt to their environment,…

    The purpose of this report was to identify an unknown bacterium by applying methods that were previously learned and conducted in microbiology lab class. It is possible to identify a mixed culture by running experiments on the unknown bacteria and taking what we already know and applying it to the results. It helps to slowly eliminate any bacteria that do not correspond with the results of certain tests. An unknown test tube labeled 94 was given to me b my instructor.…
