Biology

You will pick a microorganism for your paper on pathology or microbe-environment interactions. The organism can not be one of the ones your instructor goes over during lecture listed in the syllabus(prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells). Select a pathogen/microbe from current events that is an emerging or reemerging concern to you or people in your area. Provide local epidemiological data/statistics for the organism. The paper must be in APA format and 2-5 pages. Your paper must include: • Introduction to the organism (structure, cell type, morphology, metabolic requirements, natural reservoir, history, etc.) • Introduction to the disease(s) caused by the organism (epidemiology, signs, symptoms, etc.) OR introduction to the environmental impact of the organism • List and describe factors employed by the organism to assist in its growth, reproduction, culture conditions, host/pathogen interactions and/or virulence. (e.g. nitrogen fixation, symbiotic interactions etc.) Categorize virulence factors by mechanisms of action (Immunity Avoidance, Tissue/Cell Lysis, Colonization/Spread) • Discussion of treatment/prevention options for the disease(s) caused by the organism (Antibiotics or other chemotherapeutics given as part of treatment and their mechanisms of action, Vaccines available and type) • 3 primary and at least 2 secondary scholarly sources

Below your picture, include your name, date, MAST 1120, and the instructor’s name (ex: instructor)—all of which should be centered. Pages 2-6 should be your research information that includes at least 2 cited sources per page. No cited sources will result in a grade of 0 out of 70 possible points. (Failure to cite your sources means that your entire paper was all your work; therefore, it is not a research paper!

There must be a total of 10 cited sources throughout the paper. Page 7 should be your work cited or reference page. The paper should not exceed 7 pages. 3.Use APA format. 4. The very first paragraph of the first page should be a very interesting eye opening introduction which includes no cited sources. The very last sentence of your first paragraph or introduction, the first, not the second or third paragraph should be your thesis statement that begins…This paper will discuss…….. 5. The last paragraph on the last information page, (page 6) should begin…In conclusion… and then you state your opinions, suggestions, concerns, issues, and so on. There should be no cited information located here. 6. You must provide copies of all used articles and attach them to your research paper. Be sure to highlight the used information on your sources in order to show its location. 7. You must have at least 5 references which includes only one internet source. 8. There should be no bullets, numbering, charts, graphs, or diagrams. Use paragraph format only. Each page should be numbered using the complete title of your paper which should be located at the top right corner as a header along with the page number. Do not use acronyms, short hand, abbreviations, or put your last or first name in the header. If your topic is Sudden Infant Death Syndrome, the title page should be Sudden Infant Death Syndrome 1 in the header and on page 2, Sudden Infant Death Syndrome 2, and so on)..

Based on your knowledge of bacterial cell structure, cell wall composition, toxins that they produce, and metabolism, design the ultimate pathogen that you think will win the battle against human body’s immune responses. First describe the various cell structures your bacterium will have and how these will help it to combat the human immune system. In your essay talk about the cell wall composition in detail and the specific types of toxins that your bacterium will produce. Also describe why you think that this bacterium will be an ultimate pathogen and how the structures and toxins will help it to evade our immune cells. please use scientific sites for sources. no .com.

The Golden Age of Microbiology changed medicine and microbiology forever. During this age the germ theory of disease was established, disinfectants introduced, the role of immunity established, vaccines developed, surgical techniques and microbiology culture techniques developed. Begin with Edward Jenner and end your essay with the works of Elizabeth Bugie and Rebecca Lancefield.

How does this aid with its function?What is the difference between the dorsal and ventral roots of the spinal nerves?Where are the choroid plexuses found, and what is their function?Describe the folding of the cerebrum in a sheep brain compared to a human brain.

Describe your answer using your observations.What does it mean if you can hear the tuning fork more clearly in one ear or another during the Weber test?How is the mechanism of hearing different if the handle of the tuning fork is held on the mastoid process instead of holding the tuning fork tines near the ear canal?What types of mechanisms does the body use for balance? How does vision affect balance?Imagine that you were standing on a moving platform when performing the balance test. How would this affect balance and why?The “blind spot” is more like a “blind sphere.” Is the depth (distance from where the circle disappeared to where it reappeared in this exercise) approximately the same for each eye? What does this indicate?Explain why a blind spot is not normally perceived. What is an afterimage? Why does it occur?What causes the patellar reflex?Why is the patellar stretch reflex beneficial?Describe the nerve signal transmission from the stimulus to the response.What, if any changes, occurred when the volunteer was reading while the reflex was tested?
