Identify the differences between bacteria viruses‚ Fungi and Parasites. Viruses are pieces of nucleic acid (DNA or RNA) wrapped in a thin coat of protein that replicate only within the cells of living hosts. Bacteria are one-cell microorganisms with a simple cellular organization whose nucleus lacks a membrane. Parasites may be protozoa‚ yeasts‚ or multicellular organisms such as fungi or worms that live in or on a host to obtain nourishment without providing any benefit to the host. Fungi

gram-negative and gram-positive bacteria are and what it’s composed of. Gram-positive bacteria take up the class of bacteria that stain crystal violet in the method of bacterial differentiation. Where gram-negative bacteria are a class of bacteria that does not retain crystal violet. Instead they are counter-stained pink by Safranin‚ and because of this‚ identifying positive is possible. One of the many differences between gram-negative and gram-positive bacteria is their peptidoglycan. Which are

A. The typical human mouth contains a writhing orgy of bacteria. Most of these. Most of these microscopic organisms are bengin‚ and some are even beneficial‚ but one particular variety is a conspicuous troublemaker: Streptococcus mutans. These ubiquitous bacteria thrive on sugars in the mouth‚ which they consume while excreting lactic acid. This acid is responsible for the great majority of tooth decay in humankind because it erodes the enamel and dentin of the teeth. B. A Florida-based company

tea on the growth of E. coli bacteria cultures Kierstin Barker‚ Melissa Bischak‚ Jackie Tyszkiewicz‚ Errin Enany September 25‚ 2012 Abstract: This study was carried out in order to investigate whether black tea has antimicrobial properties as stated in Steven Johnson’s The Ghost Map. If tea does have antimicrobial properties‚ then it could aid in warding off waterborne diseases. We believed that if black tea is steeped in boiled water‚ then the amount of bacteria exposed to this solution would

Describe how Bacteria decode its genetic information to produce proteins? Intro(10mins) Bacteria belongs to a group of organism that lacks cell nucleus and membrane bound organells. This group of organisms are termed as prokaryotes. Prokaryotes follows the central dogma of molecular biology first proposed by Francis Crick in 1958 to synthesize proteins from mRNA through a process called translation and the mRNA is being synthesized from the DNA by another process called Transcription.

How bacteria can affect the lives of humans and other organisms Bacteria can enter the body in 3 different ways. Through the gas exchange system‚ by breathing in pathogens‚ most are trapped in the mucus lining in the lung epithelium. There are also cilia that move the mucus up the trachea and into the mouth where it is removed. However some bacteria is still able to reach the alveoli where they invade cells and cause damage. Another way it can enter the body is through the skin‚ if the skin is
