from living among the poisonous tentacles of the sea anemone‚ but offers no known benefit to its host. A common and widespread symbiosis occurs between terrestrial plants and fungi that colonize their roots; this is called "mycorrhizae.” Unlike pathogenic fungi that cause disease‚ mycorrhizal fungi benefit the plant in several ways. These fungi germinate from spores in the soil to form thin threadlike structures called hyphae‚ which grow into the roots of plants. Once the roots are colonized‚ the

experiment‚ a plasmid with a gene that has resistance to the antibiotic ampicillin and has lacZ is used to transfer the resistance into E. coli bacteria in red colonies. This same technique is used to give diabetics their insulin‚ and to give dwarfs growth hormones. The point of this lab is to give the groups an idea how DNA can be transformed by a bacteria to improve the lives of people. Transformation happened when a gene is transferred from one bacterium to another one on a plasmid. E. coli is the

Study of Bacterial Growth and Resistance Level to Certain Antibiotics INTRODUCTION Escherichia coli—better known as E. coli—is a gram negative‚ rod shaped bacteria. It is relatively harmless‚ but can occasionally cause food poisoning. It can also provide Vitamin K2. It prevents the establishment of pathogenic bacteria‚ and is associated with or found in the intestinal organ. The antibiotic that E. coli is resistant to is Penicillin. Bacillus subtilis—better known as B. subtilis—is known as

Classification of diseases • Generally‚ diseases are classified as – infections‚ – parasitic‚ – non-communicable and – diseases of unknown etiology. • Infections diseases are caused by viruses‚ bacteria‚ fungi and less frequently algae. • Parasitic diseases are caused by protozoa‚ helminthes and parasitic crustacean. • Non-communicable disease include – nutritional fish diseases (e.g goiter or hyper plasia of the thyroid gland) – diseases associated
