Bacteria: a benefit or a hazard? Bacteria is something we are all reminded of on a daily basis by merely switching on our televisions where we are bombarded with advertisements for both ‘good’ and ‘bad’ bacteria. Contrary to the view of the past when only so-called ‘bad’ bacteria was ever talked about‚ so what has changed? This essay will address the facts about bacteria including methods used in identifying bacteria as well as looking at specific examples of how they can be both helpful and harmful

QUESTIONS 1. According to the Hardy-Weinberg theorem‚ p + q 1 and p2 + 2pq + q2 1. What does each of these formulas mean‚ and how are the formulas derived? p + q 1: If you add all the dominant alleles for a gene to all the recessive alleles for the gene‚ you get all of the alleles for that gene‚ or 100% of the alleles for the gene. (Note: This assumes the gene has only two alleles.) p2 + 2pq + q2 1: If you combine all the individuals that are homozygous dominant for a gene with all

Definition of a review paper A review is a comprehensive synthesis of results from a wide and complex set of studies A synthesis of findings rather than ideas. Goal of a review paper is to help readers make sense of all available information Direct quotations rarely found in reviews. Do Not Use! Research reviews focus on primary sources Original scientific experimentation reported in scientific journals The quality of the review depends largely on the comprehensiveness of the literature

Danielle Rollins Cardiovascular Physiology Activity 1 1) Explain why the larger waves seen on the oscilloscope represent ventricular contraction. The ventricular contraction is when the blood is sent through the whole body as opposed to the atrial contraction that sends the blood to the heart and lungs. 2) Explain why the amplitude of the wave did not change when you increased the frequency of the stimulation. (Hint: relate your response to the refractory period of the cardiac action
