One purpose of this paper is to show the importance of biology in our everyday life. The subject of this paper is the cause and affects of micro-organisms that are in the human digestive system. Article of choice‚ (Adnan‚ 2010) Benefits of Microorganisms to Humans‚ Retrieved February 8‚ 2013. This article was of interest because there are many bacteria that we encounter in our daily lives and it was informative to know that all bacteria is not bad. In fact‚ there needs to be a balance between the

Penicillin Changed the World Imagine life without antibiotics‚ people dying of a whooping cough‚ a minor wound or even a simple infection. Until the accidental discovery of penicillin by Alexander Flemming‚ life was like this. The positive effects for the discovery of penicillin were the many medical advancements made both therapeutically and medicinally. Economically‚ people were living longer lives and populations were growing more rapidly. Socially‚ people were able to interact without risking

Unit 2 Assignment Critical Thinking 1. Explain why‚ even under ideal conditions‚ Streptococcus grows slowly. Cellular respiration is a process in which glucose is broken down to form an energy that can be used by the cell. There is aerobic respiration and there is anaerobic respiration. Aerobic respiration involves a series of chemical reactions in which oxygen is used to transform into carbon dioxide and H2O. This process generates energy carrying molecules called ATP. Anaerobic respiration

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

Identification of Microorganisms • For many students and professionals the most pressing topic in microbiology is how to identify unknown specimens. • Why is this important? • Labs can grow‚ isolate and identify most routinely encountered bacteria within 48 hrs of sampling. • The methods microbiologist use fall into three categories: ♣Phenotypic- morphology (micro and macroscopic) ♣Immunological- serological analysis ♣Genotypic- genetic techniques Dr.T.V.Rao MD 2 Microbe Identification

conducted on the effect that antibiotics have on the growth of bacteria. This will be done through the use of microbiology. Microbiology is a science in the department of biology‚ particularly microorganisms. These include; bacterium‚ fungi‚ protozoa‚ algae and viruses. This is an important subject to study as microorganisms can be found everywhere‚ covering all matters of different surfaces even including the human body. Bacterium‚ or bacteria‚ is an important part to the experiment. Information about

between a gram positive bacteria and gram negative bacteria is the differences in cell wall composition. Prokaryotes known as eubacteria have three basic forms: rods‚ cocci and spiral. The bacterial cell wall is the single most important contributor to cell shape. In addition to shape of cell wall‚ presence or absence of flagellum‚ and if present‚ positions of flagellum‚ the eubacteria can be classified according to Gram Stain. First and foremost‚ gram positive bacteria are by and large dark
