observe any patterns that occur‚ to conduct experiments that manipulate specific variables in a community‚ or to construct a model that may undergo succession. One example of an experiment that measures microbial succession was an experiment observing changes in traditional Chinese soy sauce over time (Sulaiman et al. 2014). The fermentation of the soy sauce brine revealed that the primary bacteria shifted from the bacteria with the genus Weissella to bacteria with the genus Candida over time. This occurred

· Taxonomy ○ Science of classification ○ Provides an orderly basis for the naming of organisms and for placing organisms into a category (taxon) ○ Makes use of and makes sense of the fundamental concepts of unity and diversity among living things ○ Basic principle is that members of higher-levels groups share fewer characteristics than those in lower-level groups * Escherichia coli - rod shape and have a Gram-negative cell wall * Even members of the same species display variations

1. The most surprising experience was that all people we interviewed were supportive. They shared their opinions‚ personal stories‚ and feelings freely. What went well include the team work‚ the communication with the targeted audience‚ and the insights’ generation. The team spirit was spectacular. All team members were engaging and well prepared. Each one treated others with respect and welcomed different voices. As a result‚ the team perform well in the task and had a lot of laughs and joys.

Introduction The purpose of this lab is to be able to observe the reaction rates of different chemical substances‚ by looking at which substance is the fastest reactant. This is what chemical kinetics is. Reaction rate is the change in the concentration of a reactant or product in a chemical reaction per unit time. In this lab the requirement was to be able to calculate each Average reaction rate which is the change in reactant or product concentration at a given time interval. Some equations that

experimented is whether bacteria can become resistant to antibacterial soaps. Bacteria will be grown in an agar broth containing .01%‚ .1%‚ .5% and 10% antibacterial soap. To fully understand the subject‚ information on everything necessary to conduct this experiment and comprehend the results was researched. Once the experiment is completed a conclusion will be able to be made as to whether or not bacteria can become resistant to antibacterial soaps The procedure for the experiment is as follows.

30 February 2014 Antibiotic Resistant Bacteria: What is it‚ how to prevent it and who it affects? In the United States alone‚ about 23‚000 people die from antibiotic resistant infections yearly. It is also one of the top 15 most dangerous illnesses in the country (United States House of Representatives). Antibiotic resistance is when bacteria develops a different response to an antibiotic that is its ancestor bacteria. Slight changes in bacteria enable the antibiotic to work and successfully

some people see bacteria as something that is harmful and that causes nothing but illness and infections. Bacteria can actually be helpful as well. It can provide vitamins to your body‚ help digestion‚ destroy bad organisms‚ help make medicines and also help out with the environment. In this research paper‚ it will describe two bacteria that are helpful and sometimes harmful to humans and the environment‚ which are E. coli and Lactobacillus Acidophilus. E. coli E. coli is the bacteria that live in

Griffith’s experiment‚ reported in 1928 by Frederick Griffith‚[1] was one of the first experiments suggesting that bacteria are capable of transferring genetic information through a process known as transformation.[2][3] Griffith used two strains of pneumococcus (Streptococcus pneumoniae) bacteria which infect mice – a type III-S (smooth) and type

resistance occurs when an antibiotic is no longer effective against a particular bacteria‚ making that organism resistant to the effects of the antibiotic. Bacteria become resistant due to selective pressure. Those organisms which resist the antibiotic‚ and do not die from it ’s effects have a greater chance of survival within the host‚ therefore allowing them to reproduce and spread it ’s resistance to other bacteria. while the ones susceptible to the antibiotics die. This can be caused by unnecessary

Question: Suppose a meteor impact blows some extremophile bacteria from the Earth into the depths of a gas giant planet called planet X ‚ where they evolve into an intelligent species which practises physics. Do you think their physical theories would be similar to ours‚ and if so in what ways would they be likely to be similar? Your answer will necessarily involve some speculation‚ but make sure it involves some careful argument as well. Theoretical physics is one of many braches of physics that
