Textbook Question
Chapter 4, Problem 3TBP
We are a product of our genes, so they say; however, we are also populated by microbes. Some we cannot do without, but others wait around until our defenses are down and then they strike. During your examination of the topics in this chapter, consider the following:
How do bacteria get around?

Using what you’ve learned from the video, answer the following questions in the spaces provided.1 Death is a major event not only for the person who dies but also for the microbes that inhabit their body. Which of the following statements best describes why?
a. All the microbes that were living inside the person’s body die when the person dies.
b. Microbial populations grow and spread to different areas of the body after the person dies.
c. Microbes in the body have fewer resources after the person dies, which increases competition.
2 Which of the following statements about cadavers (dead bodies) is most likely to be true?
a. Microbial communities in and around a cadaver change over time.
b. Samples taken from different cadavers always contain the same microbes.
c. The microbial community found in a cadaver is very similar to the one found in a living body.
3 After death, gases build up inside the…

- Hello, We are doing a discusion in Biology class about bacterium. I am stuck In this bacteria:Clostridium botulinum. I have no idea what to add to the description my classmate did. Can you please help me with that? (I would apreciate a short ansewr :) He wrote this: Escherichia coli is a bacterium which is normally present in human and animal intestine; this bacterium has some unique properties, which are needed to be known by the health care professionals. A special feature is the fact that this bacterium has the beneficial effect for human health, but also pathogenic strains, such as Escherichia coli O157: H7 causes diseases, for example, gastrointestinal colibacillosis, and life-threatening condition – hemolytic uremic syndrome (HUS). 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…arrow_forwardHello, please read the attached Microbiology question and answer the question and its two parts correctly.

- Question 1 Note that it is not appropriate to self-diagnose outside of a medical context and this is a completely hypothetical scenario. Imagine you have a rash on your foot. You’re concerned that it’s an infection and inoculate a sample onto an agar plate. You wonder, How can I figure out whether the pathogen is a bacterium or a eukaryote? You decide to use lab supplies to get a basic understanding of the pathogen. What is one experiment you could do, involving culturing the organism? Be specific about what tests you use and what you expect the results to be. Limit yourself to experiments we have done/could do in our lab. What is a procedure you could do, involving making a slide of the organism? Be specific about what tests you use and what you expect the results to be. Limit yourself to experiments we have done/could do in our lab. Without testing anything, how do you know this is not a viral infection?arrow_forwardI need help answering this question to my professor: The topic for the discussion was this one: Some potentially pathogenic bacteria and fungi, including strains of Enterococcus, Staphylococcus, Candida, and Aspergillus, can survive for one to three months on a variety of materials found in hospitals, including scrub suits, lab coats, plastic aprons, and computer keyboards. What can hospital personnel do to reduce the spread of these pathogens? My answer was this one: To reduce the spread of these pathogens an infection control protocol should be followed. Some ways in which this could be reduced is by using desinfectants, sterilization, hand washing, and disposing techniques. In addition, I currently work as a dental assistant at Jackson Main and the protocol we use is hand washing our hands for at least 20 seconds before and after seeing every patient. We use CaviWipes to disinfect every surface and autoclave every single instrument after every use. Also, we make sure to…arrow_forwardPlease reply to the post below whether or not you agree or disagree and why A common microbe found in foods and can be taken orally are probiotics. Probiotics are live bacteria that balance good and bad intestinal bacteria and aid in digestion or digestive problems. For example, Lactobacillus species habituate where rich carbohydrate substances are available including the human digestive and urinary tracts. In 1900 lactobacillus acidophilus was isolated by Moro from infant feces and the intestinal tract of animals and humans. Also, it was reported in the feces of milk fed infants and older persons consuming high milk/lactose diets. This microbe is also found in plant materials and agricultural products particularly milk, cheese, fermented milk products and beverages such as wine and cider. Historically, Lactobacillus species is most often known to be capable of eliciting beneficial effects on the microbiota of the gastrointestinal tract. It helps the body break down food, absorb…arrow_forward
- Help me, please! I wish I have a lot of time to do it by myself ... This is the article link and a microbiology open Stax book link for chapter 16 terms. Please help me to find answers. https://piercemil.instructure.com/courses/2180982/assignments/24927088 https://openstax.org/books/microbiology/pages/15-2-how-pathogens-cause-disease#OSC_Microbio_15_02_Invasion Questions: If possible please write the pg of an article with related Answers; it will be easier for me to describe in detail. Thank You for Helping me. Using the terms found in the “Patterns of Incidence” subsection in Chapter 16, what pattern of incidence best matches the outbreak described in the article? Using the terms found in the “Pioneers of Epidemiology” subsection in Chapter 16, which discusses “spread”, what type of spread of the pathogen best matches the outbreak described in the article? Be specific. What type of epidemiological study was used to identify the source of the pathogen in the article? Be specific.…arrow_forwardI need help with the following question: After graduating from university you decide to celebrate your success with a trip to Thailand during the summer. 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_forwardAfter having studied Circulation/Respiration and Digestion, it will be very important for us to look at and put into practice one important aspect of the thread that ties these three aspects in terms of one of the elements known as the DIVERSITY OF MICROBES. =>>>As you prepare to complete this lab and ready to write your final report, ensure that you are able to answer the following questions and incorporate your answers/responses in the specific sections of your written lab report, (1) What is aseptic technique? (2) What are microbes? (3) What media is being used in the lab? (4) What inoculum is used in the lab? (5) Why was a control used for this experiment? (6) How will you store your agar plates?arrow_forward
