Expert Solution & Answer
Summary Introduction
To determine: the science of microbiology studies.
Introduction: A human eye can have vision of objects that are about 0.1 millimeters. Objects that are smaller than this cannot be viewed under a normal eye but can be viewed with the help of a microscope. Micro-organisms are such small living organisms that are less than 0.1 mm and can be seen only under suitable microscopes.
Explanation of Solution
As the term indicates, microbiology is the science that involves the study of a variety of micro-organisms including bacteria, virus, archae, prions, and protozoa. It involves their habitat, classification, and both harmful and beneficial aspects of the microbes. Anton Van Leeuwenhoek is known as “the father of microbiology” due to his contributions to this field.

8. Transcription and Translation Practice: (Video 10-1 and 10-2)
A. Below is the sense strand of a DNA gene. Using the sense strand, create the antisense
DNA strand and label the 5' and 3' ends.
B. Use the antisense strand that you create in part A as a template to create the mRNA
transcript of the gene and label the 5' and 3' ends.
C. Translate the mRNA you produced in part B into the polypeptide sequence making sure
to follow all the rules of translation.

What is the structure and function of Eukaryotic cells, including their organelles? How are Eukaryotic cells different than Prokaryotic cells, in terms of evolution which form of the cell might have came first? How do Eukaryotic cells become malignant (cancerous)?
What are the roles of DNA and proteins inside of the cell? What are the building blocks or molecular components of the DNA and proteins? How are proteins produced within the cell? What connection is there between DNA, proteins, and the cell cycle? What is the relationship between DNA, proteins, and Cancer?
