This week you will be completing the Biosafety lab in Labster. The lab introduces HazMat containment of a powdery envelope and how to work in a Biosafety Level 3 lab to identify the powder. Instead of writing up a lab report for this lab you will be submitting a paper or presentation focused on managing… Continue reading How important is it to have biosafety labs to identify hazardous microorganisms?

Discuss the known methods used for breaking the chains of disease transmission.
Disease Transmission Explain how nosocomial infections are becoming serious health threats within the healthcare system. Discuss the known methods used for breaking the chains of disease transmission. Propose a way to educate the general public on their role in preventing disease transmission.
Explain how you identified this as an antibiotic-resistant bacteria and how the boy was treated following diagnosis.
Bacterial Isolation This week you will be completing the Bacterial Isolation lab in Labster. This lab has three parts. Your goal is to identify the bacteria causing an infection, trace its origin, and verify the strains. It may be beneficial to complete the sections of the lab report or presentation as you go through the… Continue reading Explain how you identified this as an antibiotic-resistant bacteria and how the boy was treated following diagnosis.

Identify universal characteristics across organisms that utilize each process in the metabolic pathways.
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… Continue reading Identify universal characteristics across organisms that utilize each process in the metabolic pathways.
Describe the morphologic characteristics of prokaryotic cells, their functions and importance to virulence.
Describe the morphologic characteristics of prokaryotic cells, their functions and importance to virulence. Compare prokaryotic cells to eukaryotic cells in their morphologic characteristics and functions.
