Antibiotics attack bacteria by targeting a protein‚ or stopping the creation of a cell wall and or how they metabolize sugar. This method of targeting the specific functions of bacteria have allowed antibiotics like Penicillin to save millions of live throughout in the past few decades. As amazing as antibiotics are they have a really smart enemy. Bacteria are cleaver little single-celled organisms. Bacteria can actually barf up the antibiotics we use to fight them. The genetic information bacteria gather in

The history of mixed-race individuals is one that has been overlooked and underrepresented for centuries. Some have constructed research regarding this topic‚ yet Mixed-Race people seem to fall between the cracks of the over-discussed and typical themes in history—such as slavery‚ the Trans-Atlantic Slave Trade‚ and the creation of the United States Constitution. Many know of the enslavement of African American’s in Jamestown‚ Virginia along with knowing the Trans-Atlantic Slave trade began in the

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

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

"Thermophiles" are microorganisms with optimal growth temperatures between 60 and 108 degrees Celsius‚ isolated from a number of marine and terrestrial geothermally-heated habitats including shallow terrestrial hot springs‚ hydrothermal vent systems‚ sediment from volcanic islands‚ and deep sea hydrothermal vents. -Encyclopedia of Environmental Microbiology‚ 2002. vol.3.

primate lab and started studying how infant monkeys developed when separated at birth from their mothers. He put these lonely monkeys in cages with two dolls. One was made out of wire with a wooden head and contained a bottle for the monkey’s nourishment. The other was made of soft foam and covered in cuddly cloth but did not have a bottle. With this setup‚ Harlow attempted to separate the two things the monkey gets from its mother: nourishment and comfort. The wire mother gave food‚ while the cloth mother

Anaerobic respiration in Bacteria Like humans and other animals‚ bacteria need to breathe. Anaerobic bacteria basically mean bacteria that respire anaerobically. All living cells need to respire in order to release energy for vital cell activities. Anaerobic respiration is respiration in the absence of oxygen‚ hence anaerobic bacteria does not breathe at all. The purpose of respiration is to provide the cell with the appropriate molecules for creating energy in the form of adenosine triphosphate

The purpose of the unknown bacteria lab assignment was to select an unknown bacteria culture and‚ through a series of metabolic tests‚ identify which bacteria genus resided in the pure culture received. A nutrient broth inoculated with bacterial culture (numbered 45‚ henceforth referenced as U45) was selected and a streak plate was made to isolate a pure culture for use throughout the assignment. From the streak plate‚ several slides were made to determine the morphology of unknown 45. A Gram stain
