Bacterial Biology █ BRIAN D. HOYLE An understanding of the fundamentals of bacterial biology is critical to bacteriologists and other forensic investigators attempting to identify potential biogenic pathogens that may be exploited as agents in biological warfare or by bioterrorists. Fundamentals of Bacterial Biology Bacteria are one-celled prokaryotic organisms that lack a true nucleus (i.e.‚ a nucleus defined by a membrane). Bacteria maintain their genetic material‚ deoxyribonucleic

Planning Introduction Stomata are pores on the bottom of leaves of vascular plants. The function of stomata is to allow gaseous exchange (transpiration) between the plant and the external environment (see diagrams below). This process is carried out by the plant‚ which controls the opening and closing of stomata via the guard cells. The more stomata a leaf contains the greater the rate of gas exchange and the less water it will be able to accumulate. Stomatal pores are formed between

Australian Ectotherms and Endotherms- temperature regulation Part A :Types of Temperature regulation 1. Write down the meaning of the terms endotherm and ectotherm. Consult a textbook if necessary. a. endotherm Endotherms are animals that can maintain a constant internal body temperature. For instance mammals and birds are true endotherms that can maintain a constant internal body temperature b. ectotherm Ectotherms are animals that are not able to regulate their body temperature or in simple

Male System The structure and function of the human male reproductive system‚ is very similar to that of many other mammals. The male system is designed to make sperm or male gametes and is adapted to provide for the delivery of these gametes to the female to allow for fertilization. Male Reproductive System Male Reproductive System Structures 1. testes -- produces sperm and the hormone testosterone 2. scrotum -- pouch enclosing the testes keeping the sperm at an optimum temperature

32.2.2 Segmentation allowed for redundant systems and improved locomotion Hox genes cause segmentation development 2 advantage of Hox genes Highly segmented animals‚ usually have nearly complete set of organs in theirs each segment of body. This result to less damage in their body‚ since other segment duplicate the damage segment functions Locomotion is more efficient‚ since partitions isolate the segment can contract and expand autonomously. 32.3.

CYCLES IN BIOLOGY This essay will give examples of cycles in biology from different scales of magnification‚ ranging from molecular level to populations and ecosystems. Cycles are sequences of events which repeat themselves in the same order‚ one event leading to the next. There are many examples of these in Biology. Cycles can be seen even at a molecular level in the body. An example of this would include the passage of action potentials down neurones in the nervous system. When the cell membrane
