I. INTRODUCTION Independent Study Questions 1.) What is the fundamental difference between eukaryotic and prokaryotic cells? Procaryotic cells do not contain a membrane-bound nucleus or any membrane-bound organelles. Eurkaryotic cells contain both a membrane mound nucleus and membrane-bound organelles (making them far more complex). 2.) List and describe the two domains of prokaryotic organisms. a. Bacteria- Most are a specific shape (cylindrical‚ spiral‚ or spherical). Cell

Chapter 5 – Short answer a) Phosphorylation - the addition of phosphate to a chemical compound b) What are the 3 mechanisms of phosphorylation used by organisms? • Substrate level phosphorylation – ATP is generated when a high-energy phosphate is directly transferred from a phosphorylated compound (substrate) to ADP • Oxidative phosphorylation – electrons are transferred from a group of organic compounds to a group of electron carriers (NAD+ and FAD); occurs in inner mitochondrial

TITLE Lab #4 Soil –vs- Water Microbiology INTRODUCTION There are 4 learning goals for this lab: 1. Collect samples and compile data from at least 2 sources (soil; water) of your choice. 2. Identify at least 2 Prokaryotes (bacteria) and 2 Eukaryotes (fungus) in your samples. 3. Research the importance of bacteria and fungus to Earth in a non-medical context. 4. Compile a high-quality‚ 3+ resource (excluding the lab worksheet)‚ MLA-cited in-text laboratory report using the scientific method

staining methods on microbes‚ explain the mechanisms of staining‚ namely‚ simple staining‚ and learn how to use the microscope. The experiment setting was kept as sterile as possible when conducting the experiment. The microbes under the microscope were drawn out and labelled. In conclusion‚ different staining techniques are used to determine the presence of certain exterior structures of the bacteria like the cell envelope or just to identify the basic shape and size of the microbe. In this experiment

Dr. GEORGE ROMBO Cholera This is an infection of the small intestine caused by bacterium vibrio cholera. Transmission is mostly from the fecal contamination of food and water that is caused by poor sanitation Susceptibility About 100 million bacteria must typically be ingested to cause cholera in a normal healthy adult. Children are also more susceptible with 2- 4 year old having the highest rates of infection Individual susceptibility to cholera is also affected by their blood type with
