I. Summary As what is said on the paper‚ the recent advances biotechnology and the availability of ever more powerful computers have led to the formulation of increasingly complex models at all levels of biology. This paper shows the innovations in studying biology. It discusses the biological level of organization and it also describes the model that has seem to be found on the said level. It was also discussed on this paper that the complex models that was developed for the past few years must

People can get infected with C. neoformans through breathing in the microscopic fungus‚ although most people who get exposed to the fungus never get sick from it. Most cases of this infection occur in people who have weakened immune system‚ mainly those who have HIV/AIDS. In 1894‚ Busse‚ a pathologist‚ first described the yeast in a paper he presented to the Greifswald Medical Society. Busse isolated the yeast from the tibia of a 31

Experiments investigating the effect of a particular factor on an enzyme-catalysed reaction are commonly used as assessed practicals in Biology. The reason for this is there are a number of factors that can be investigated‚ and therefore‚ a number of factors that can also be controlled. From our lecture‚ we are aware that the following can affect the rate of reaction: 1) Temperature: a. Independent variable: A range of temperatures should be investigated‚ with particular attention

known as C-diff in the medical world or C. difficile in the science world is a bacterium that infects the colon of humans. C-diff belongs to the bacteria Domain. Bacteria are unicellular organisms that contain Peptidoglycan in their cell walls. C-diff is a member of the phylum Firmicutes which means it has a Gram-positive stain and a low guanine and cytosine content. C-diff is also classified as a clostridia meaning it has a lack of aerobic respiration and engages in anaerobic fermentation. C-diff is
