pathogens. Remember to wash your hands! Are bacteria all bad? Not at all. Actually most bacteria are very helpful to us. They play an important role in the planet’s ecosystem as well as in human survival. Bacteria in the soil Bacteria work hard in the soil for us. One type of bacteria‚ called Decomposers‚ break down material from dead plants and animals. This might sound kind of gross‚ but it’s an important function that helps to create soil and get rid of dead tissue. Another type of

Bacterial vaginosis‚ or simply BV‚ is a prevailing vaginal infection in women. BV is an illness that outcomes in vaginal discharge and are a consequence of overgrowth of usual bacteria in the vagina. There are numerous kinds of bacteria that live naturally in the vaginal region. The vaginal discharge results when numbers of various species of bacteria grow large such that their numbers exceed the natural balance (Bacterial Vaginosis Researchomatic). The reasons for the specific vaginal bacterial

Microbial metabolism is the means by which a microbe obtains the energy and nutrients (e.g. carbon) it needs to live and reproduce. Microbes use many different types of metabolic strategies and species can often be differentiated from each other based on metabolic characteristics. The specific metabolic properties of a microbe are the major factors in determining that microbe’s ecological niche‚ and often allow for that microbe to be useful in industrial processes or responsible for biogeochemical

LABORATORY EXERCISE 8-A: Preparation of Bacterial Smear and Simple Staining I. INTRODUCTION Bacterial smears are prepared for the purpose of viewing microorganisms under the microscope. Visualization of microorganisms in the living state is very difficult‚ not just because they are minute‚ but because they are transparent and almost colorless when suspended in an aqueous medium. A bacterial smear is a dried preparation of bacterial cells on a glass slide. Smears may be made from a dry culture

world many different ways to reap the benefits of solar power. Passive heating is one of the most common and free ways to heat a house. It only requires common knowledge of the sun and how heat can be captured and stored. For example‚ a greenhouse works because the sun passing through the windows is trapped when it tries to escape. These types of principles are the basics to passive heating. Special window panes‚ wall‚ floors‚ roofs‚ and other materials are all called thermal mass. These also play
