Read about the Five I’s in Microbiology. (Inoculation, Incubation, Isolation, Inspection, and Identification)
Building on the concept of the 5 I’s, search for a current or past infectious disease in the news.
In a one to two-page paper:
Examine how the Five I’s of Microbiology are being applied to your infectious disease.
Research which of the Five I’s may be the most difficult to complete.
Provide an explanation for your reasoning.
Read about Eukaryotic and Viral cells and their life cycle in your textbook.
Describe the life cycle for Eukaryotic cells
Describe the life cycle of a viral cell.
Discuss the composition of each of the cellular structures and what their molecules are used for.
Compare and contrast the life cycles of each of the cells.
Identify any advantages or disadvantages of each of the organism’s life cycles.
As with other structures and functions within cells, evolution has driven the metabolic processes. This has created both unique processes in organisms and universal key characteristics.
Viewing metabolism through the lens of evolution, answer the following questions in a 2-3 page paper:
Propose a hypothesis of how these processes evolved. What evidence did you use to propose this evolution? Defend your hypothesis.
Identify universal characteristics across organisms that utilize each process in the metabolic pathways. For each characteristic/structure, explain what properties these characteristics/structures have that make them useful across organism types. Then, explain why the amphibolic pathways of metabolism are advantageous for the cells that utilize the full spectrum.
Next, identify unique characteristics or pathways that specialized cells use to create their own version of the metabolic processes. Looking at archaea can help identify these variations in the process. After identifying these changed characteristics or pathways compare these to the “normal” characteristics and pathways, determining why each organism utilizes their specific one and not the other.
Finally, hypothesize about future evolutionary changes that may be observed.
Comments from Customer
there’s no textbook, it would have to be done without it; I uploaded it to PowerPoint let me know if that helps.
The customer insisted that you should fit in 1 page.
