Identify ten variables that may affect aerobic fermentation in yeast

/0 Comments/in /by

Identify ten variables that may affect aerobic fermentation in yeast. Record the variables in Table 5.

From your list of variables, select three to test. Form a hypothesis regarding how each variable may affect aerobic respira-

tion in yeast.

Determine the positive and negative controls for your experiment.

Line up five clear cups (if you do not have five cups, you can perform experiments sequentially, washing the cup thoroughly

between each treatment), and label each cup with one treatment or control type.

Place a predetermined amount of yeast and the corresponding treatment in each experimental cup, and set up your con-

trols. Be sure you have enough yeast for each treatment. Let the yeast incubate in the treatment for 15 minutes.

Using a ruler, measure the height of the foam created by the output of CO2. Take this measurement by aligning the 0 of the

ruler with the top of the waterline and measuring up to the top of the foam. Record this measurement for each treatment.

Describe each type of infection in the following list and include the mode of transmission in each scenario. Use terms such as primary, secondary, healthcare-associated, STI, mixed, latent, toxemia, chronic, zoonotic, asymptomatic, local, and systemic to describe the types of infections (more than one term may apply, some may not apply to these conditions)
1) The development of Pneumocystisis pneumonia in an AIDS patient
2) Salmonellosis
3) Hantavirus pulmonary syndrome infection acquired while vacationing in a log cabin

What is one instance in which microbial metabolism has been harnessed to solve a real-world problem? (Or is being researched as a solution to a real-world problem?)

To earn full credit, include the following in your answer:

1) the microbe or microbes used
2) details describing the metabolic process according to the terminology you have learned in class
3) describe how the microbial metabolism has been applied to solve the problem.

Discuss Binary Fission, Transduction, mutation, Transformation and Conjugation If you run out of information to contribute to this discussion you may describe other conditions affecting bacterial growth (Food Requirements, Oxygen Requirements, Moisture requirements, Temperature Requirements and PH)

Asthma and type 2 diabetes

Ms. Brown had her first asthmatic attack at the age of 13. She was brought to the hospital with severe dyspnea (difficulty breathing), feeling of tightness around the chest wall and low oxygen saturation. Her vital capacity (the volume of air she can move in and out of lungs) was severely decreased. She was treated with beta-adrenergic agonists and corticosteroids and she fully recovered and, in two days, was released from the hospital. In the next 40 years she has had 3 asthmatic attacks that required hospitalization, but (as expected) with the treatment, each time she has fully recovered with her vital capacity and ability to exercise returning to her normal levels. She is now 63 years old, overweight and, five years ago she was diagnosed with type 2 diabetes during her visit with her family physician. She did not have any symptoms and her kidney function was within the normal limits for the first three years from the diagnosis of diabetes. However, last year’s check-up found a decrease in her kidney function and this year’s labs indicate further decline and she has started noticing some numbness on the toes of her left foot (due to diabetic neuropathy). She is filling her prescription for an additional medication to treat her diabetes.

Using your understanding of disease classification (based on the physiologic reserve) compare and contrast Ms. Brown’s asthma and type 2 diabetes and explain the treatment goals for the asthmatic attacks vs type 2 diabetes.

Exposure of used needles

A medical office assistant was preparing an examination room for the next patient. When she picked up paper towels on the floor to dispose in the trash, she punctured her thumb
with a needle that was loosely wrapped in the towels. Because this clinic is an outpatient Human immunodeficiency virus clinic, she was very worried about being exposed to HIV.
 Describe how this exposure of used needles could have been prevented. How do we know if she acquired Human immunodeficiency virus?
