classified uniformly in order to easily categorize and identify organisms. This classification‚ or taxonomy‚ uses the genus name followed by the species name‚ in Latin. By having a universal method of identifying bacteria allows for all scientists from any part of the world to identify the same species in an identical manner allowing for a precise of classification. Bacteria are distributed throughout the world in almost every conceivable habit. Bacteria are unicellular microorganisms‚ with variable shapes

1. What type of foodborne illness did the individual contract? Aaron from case study #1‚ had most likely contracted the foodborne illness called Clostridium perfringens. I believe he contracted this specific foodborne pathogen because the illness is caused by improper temperature of prepared foods in meat products such as roast beef or turkey. This organism is known to cause severe diarrhea and nausea due to the bacterias being contaminated through foods. Since Aaron and his wife’s beef stew was

growth and measurement. To identify the resulting colonies a procedure called gram stain is used in the identification of bacteria. Bacteria can be gram-positive‚ gram-negative‚ or gram-variable. Most bacteria however‚ are usually gram-positive or gram-negative. Gram-positive and gram-negative bacteria react differently to staining because of the differences in their cell walls. Bacterial cell walls contain a polymer called peptidoglycan. Gram-positive bacteria have more of this polymer than

Start with a some DNA‚ or RNA if you are so inclined‚ mix in a simple matrix‚ fold the mixture into a protein coat‚ and pour into a plasma membrane. Could this be the recipe for elementary life? Viruses are one of the simplest forms of organized organic material to arise in evolution. They are infamously the most efficient at reproducing while simultaneously eliminating competition which are two of the most fundamental characteristics of life. Despite these remarkable abilities‚ most biologists are
