At the beginning of the semester‚ samples of bacteria were obtained from various sources. Two bacterial colonies were isolated from plates that were incubated in the lab and these bacteria became the basis for this project. The bacterial cultures were maintained and used for various physiological‚ cultural‚ and biochemical tests and observations over several weeks. The purpose of culturing bacteria over half the course of the semester was to learn various techniques used in microbiology labs and

Lecture 14 Lecture Gene Complementation in Bacteria In order to perform tests for dominance or for complementation in bacteria we need a way to make the bacteria diploid for part of the chromosome. To do this we need to consider a different extrachromosomal element: Ori T The F plasmid (length 105 base pairs) Tra genes There are some special terms to describe the state of F in a cell: F– refers to a strain without any form of F‚ whereas F+ refers to a strain with an F plasmid. F‚

Question: Suppose a meteor impact blows some extremophile bacteria from the Earth into the depths of a gas giant planet called planet X ‚ where they evolve into an intelligent species which practises physics. Do you think their physical theories would be similar to ours‚ and if so in what ways would they be likely to be similar? Your answer will necessarily involve some speculation‚ but make sure it involves some careful argument as well. Theoretical physics is one of many braches of physics that

Cells Now we need to discuss CELLS. You’ve probably heard of cells‚ and may even know of a few‚ such as blood cells‚ nerve cells‚ or skin cells. What are these things called cells? Cells are the smallest living things. You’ll be learning a lot about cells in this course. For now‚ however‚ I’ll introduce you to just a few basic things about them. Cells are extremely tiny organisms that carry out all of the functions of life inside a thin layer of “skin” called (unimaginatively) the CELL MEMBRANE

The Primordial Soup Hypothesis‚ otherwise known as "The Primordial Soup Theory‚" was developed by the Russian chemist A.I. Oparin and English geneticist J.B.S. Haldane. Oparin & Haldane(1920) formed this idea separately though. In this theory‚ the basic aspects of life all came from simple molecules that formed in the atmosphere with the addition of oxygen. They believed that Earth had a chemically reducing atmosphere. This produced monomers. These monomers formed a "soup‚" that developed organic

Introduction Risks can have a classification system. This system classifies risks in relation to their locus of action. That is the organisational level at which the risk will have the most impact. Project Risks: are those risks within the project boundary that could affect the delivery of the business outcome that the project is set up to deliver. In other words‚ those that could affect the delivery of the project’s objectives. Business Risks: on the other hand are those risks that affect

Name: Danielle Title: Unknown Lab Report Introduction: There are many reasons for identifying an unknown bacterium. The reasons range from medical purposes‚ such as determining if the unknown could cause ailments in living things or knowing what microorganisms are needed to make antibiotics. The experiment was done by applying methods in order to identify an unknown bacterium. An unknown bacterium was handed out by Dr. Honer. The appropriate tests were prepared and applied. The

Introduction: This report required the successful identification of two unknown substances through experimental testing on a selective collection of materials and equipment. For the first substance (which will be either tin or aluminium)‚ two tests shall be done to ensure a decisive and educated decision onto what the substance is. The first step utilizes the dramatic difference in density between the two substances by measuring the volume and mass of the unknown substance. By calculating the volume (through
