Sarah Burns Evolution of Plague Bacteria The Bubonic Plague otherwise known as the Black Death‚ has gotten most of its attention from medieval paintings‚ poetry‚ and journals of revulsion. The real horror‚ was the disturbing biological evidence of the bacteria that caused all the pandemics‚ known as Yersinia pestis. The pathogen got its name from the two investigators Yersin and Kitasato. In 1894‚ Yersin was known as the main investigator (ergo. Named after him)‚ he claimed that the mice/rats were

difference between bacteria‚ viruses‚ fungi and parasites are: Bacteria are single celled organisms that can rapidly multiple themselves every 10 minutes up to 10 times each bacterial cell‚ but they do not live or reproduce in a human cell. When threatened they will make a copy of their DNA to enable them to come back to life in the right conditions. They are able to survive in most extreme living conditions including with and without oxygen‚ there are various types of bacteria such as Cocci/Coccus

Kenny Vo Microbiology Dr. Arora 10 December 2012 Flesh Eating Bacteria Necrotizing Fasciitis is a rare bacterial disease that causes the rapid decay of the fascia. The human body is said to be compose of approximately a hundred trillion cells‚ connective tissue contributes to about forty five percent of the total cell weight. It was nicknamed the flesh eating bacteria because the victims injuries would have a rotting appearance. What are the pathogens that cause this disease? Necrotizing

The results of my ecological footprint quiz were that I was living an ecologically conscientious lifestyle‚ and I would need only 0.52 Earths. My highest consumption had been in the food footprint. I also noted that I had a really high travel distance annually‚ which was at approximately 5‚000km‚ due to a long travel to and from my university. I believe that the results reflect my lifestyle. I would say that I am pretty "eco-friendly." When I go grocery shopping‚ I bring my own bags instead of using

Microbiology‚ 2002. vol.3. Temperature and bacteria The lowest temperature at which a particular species will grow is the minimum growth temperature‚ while the maximum growth temperature is the highest temperature at which they will grow. The temperature at which their growth is optimal is called the optimum growth temperature. In general‚ the maximum and minimum growth temperatures of any particular type of bacteria are about 30°F (-1°C) apart. Most bacteria thrive at temperatures at or around that

Antibiotic Resistant Bacteria A better understanding of the use of antibiotics would help prevent the reality of antibiotic resistant bacteria evolving to the point of human extinction. Antibiotic resistance is a natural process‚ stronger bacteria survive and multiply. Even though antibiotic resistance is a natural process‚ it happens faster when antibiotics are used irresponsibly. Through use of media‚ personal responsibility and research‚ our species could help deter further antibiotic resistance
