2.1 Sanitation Methods There are Four Methods that conducted on the laboratories in order to detect the presence of microorganisms. There are Rodac Method‚ Swab Method‚ Rinse Method‚ and lastly Open Dish Method and it will be discussed in detail below. 2.1.1 Rodac Method The purpose of this Standard Operating Procedure is to describe a program that will adequately measure the efficacy of disinfection of Rooms and equipment in each laboratory‚ RODAC plates can detect the presence or absence of

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

Pathology: The study of disease Etiology: The study of the cause of a disease Pathogenesis: The development of disease Infection: Colonization of the body by pathogens Virulence - the ability to infect a host Pathogenicity - the ability to cause disease in a host Outbreak – (localized epidemic) – more cases of a particular disease than expected in a given area or among a specialized group of people over a particular period of time. Epidemic – large numbers of people over a wide geographic

Major concepts to review for Exam 1: 1.) know the elements of life – and how the reduction and oxidative of some of these drive bioenergetics 2.) Know the general time line for biology and evolution on the Earth; What major events altered evolution especially in terms of microbially driven changes 3.) Carl Woese – what did he contribute? What kind of biological molecules are best to generate phylogenetic trees‚ and why? How does this compare to enzymes? 4.) What defines a species (formal definitions)

In addition‚ Gram and Gramps also helped Sal accept her mother’s death. Within the book‚ on page 143 Gram says to Sal‚ “Sometimes you know in your heart you love someone‚ but you have to go away before your head can figure it out” (Creech 143). I can infer‚ that Gram was trying to explain to Sal that her mother didn’t leave because of her‚ but to clear her mind. Gram saying this to Sal was important for Sal’s knowing that her mother didn’t leave because of the baby that died before birth. Along with
