Also, E. coli is a facultative anaerobe categorized as an organism that uses both aerobic respiration and fermentation when making energy and nutrients. This metabolic versatility enables E. coli to live in different conditions and change as the conditions…

You rent a moped to visit an archeological site on the outskirts of Bangkok. On the way there you hit a patch of gravel and wipe out, badly scraping your leg. Lurking in the dirt embedded in the scrape on your leg is Burkholderia pseudomallei, a soil bacterium endemic in Southeast Asia but not present in North America. Describe the cellular and molecular processes necessary for the activation of a primary adaptive immune response and the effector mechanisms produced to clear the infection. Be specific in terms of receptors and effector molecules specific to the type of pathogen.arrow_forward
