Critically analyse the significance of internal and external influences, such as antimicrobials, on growth and reproduction of microorganisms, and their contribution to solving global challenges facing humanity.

Advanced microbiology

Critically assess the contribution of ‘behaviour’ to microorganism survival, growth and reproduction, and appreciate the principles and processes governing interactions of microorganisms with each other and their environment, including other microflora.

Critically analyse the significance of internal and external influences, such as antimicrobials, on growth and reproduction of microorganisms, and their contribution to solving global challenges facing humanity.

Describe what was done to carry out your laboratory experiment and list the equipment.

Calculate the change in mass and the percentage change in mass of each set of potato pieces.

UFP Biology for Life Sciences:

Calculate the change in mass and the percentage change in mass of each set of potato pieces.

13. Plot percentage change in mass (y-axis) against concentration of Sucrose solution (x-
axis).

14. Calculate the percentage change in mass using the formula below:
% change in mass = final mass – initial mass x 100%

14. Where there is no net gain or loss in mass, CELL is equal to BATHING SOLUTION. From your graph read the molarity of sucrose where the percentage mass change is zero.

15. From the table below, find the water potential of a sucrose solution of that molarity

Identify the earlobe trait on at least 50 different people. Record how many had detached trait and how many had attached trait.

Identify the independent, dependent, and control variables in the experiment.

Explain what you did and name the key equipment or chemicals you used in paragraph form.

Choose a source that contains lots of images or photos of DIFFERENT people such as Facebook, a televised concert or video recorded sporting event.

Identify the earlobe trait on at least 50 different people. Record how many had detached trait and how many had attached trait.

Determine the frequency of the recessive trait (q2). To do this, divide the number of people with attached earlobe by the total number of people you counted.

Determine the frequency of the recessive allele (q). To do this, take the square root of the frequency you calculated in #3.

Determine the frequency of the dominant allele (p). This is equal to 1 – q.

Explain your overall thoughts about genetic engineering.Consider the pros and cons of genetic engineering. Remember, genetic engineering is not the same as gene technology. Refer to your text if you are unclear of the difference.

Biology discussion board
Discussion: Genetic Engineering

Consider the pros and cons of genetic engineering. Remember, genetic engineering is not the same as gene technology. Refer to your text if you are unclear of the difference.

Write an original post with 3 pros AND 3 cons for EACH of the following uses of genetic engineering:
Agriculture
Medicine
Industry (oil eating bacteria for oil spills, plastic eating bacteria in landfills, etc.)

Explain your overall thoughts about genetic engineering.
