Lab12-Medical Microbiology- Part1– Differential Media/Biochemical Tests‚ Sp2012 (Set all of your margins to ½”) Purpose: The purpose of this lab is to help you become a little familiar with some of the tests that can be typically performed in a clinical or research lab facility. These tests may help in determining a particular pathogen’s growth needs. There are several sections to this lab. Find each section and complete the “Preparing for Class” sections.

Review Questions Exam 1 Please provide detailed answers (lists‚ paragraphs‚ diagrams‚ etc). You will earn points as well as have a great study guide for your exam. Chapter 1 Earth science may include the study of: (there are 5) 1. Atmosphere. 2. Biosphere. 3. Hydrosphere. 4. Geosphere. 5. Pedosphere. Geology is the study of what? and can be broken into several sub-disciplines become familiar with at least two sub-disciplines. Geology is the study of the Earth‚ the materials of

roles do plate tectonics play in the geomorphology of Pacific Islands? The earth’s crust is made out of plate tectonics. Each plate has a defined boundary and direction it moves. The plates in Earth’s crust perform two actions; they submerge under each other or they spread out. The Pacific Plate is the largest plate and it borders around many plates. The Pacific Plate moves northwest. New crust is formed from magma outpours‚ which are a result of the zones spreading. The tectonic plates created the

2. Summarize plate tectonics. It explains the theory of how the changing surfaces of the earth are formed. 3. What are convection currents and what is their role in plate tectonics? Convection currents are the rise and lowering of heat in te earths mantle like a boiling pot of water. The heat is denser at the bottom of the pan it rises the falls to the bottom and reapaets it self. This rising and dropping is the effect that why the plates move. 4. Compare the three types of plate boundaries: divergent

location and plate tectonic settings can easily help show why more than 50 eruptions have occurred in such a short period of geologic time. The Galapagos Islands are located on the equator west of the South American coast. Like many oceanic islands‚ they are formed by a mantle plume or hotspot like Hawaii. A major subduction zone currently sits under the islands‚ the two plates that are subducting beneath the South American and Caribbean plates are the Nazca and the Cocos plates. The Galapagos

continental drift; Evidence he used includes matching fossils‚ rock types‚ and ancient climates. 4. The three types of plate boundaries are: * Divergent boundaries are a region where the rigid plates are moving apart‚ typified by the oceanic ridges * Convergent boundaries are a boundary in which two plates move together * Transform boundaries are a boundary in which two plates slide past each other without creating or destroying lithosphere 5. Seismic waves are vibrations that travel

“The extent to which tectonic processes represent hazards depends on when and where they are experienced.” Tectonic hazards are dangers caused by the movement of the earth’s plates. The majority of hazards represent by plate tectonic occur at plate margins where two plates meet. These natural processes become hazardous when they affect people and cause material losses such as the destruction of infrastructure as this inhibits sustainable development. These hazards can be reduced depending on when

agar plates divided into 4 equal sections were used for this experiment. Each section was labeled with a number from 1-8. 8 Sterile swabs were used‚ 1 for each surface swab. 8 surfaces in my home were then identified that could serve as a fomite and swabbed with a sterile swab that was dipped in distilled water to moisten it. Surface #1 was the garbage disposal in the kitchen sink. It was swabbed and the microbes transferred to the appropriately labeled section marked #1 of the agar plate. Surface
