MUDDIE POINT

hey guys kelly here

so my muddiest point for this unit was the difference between the 1st and 2nd defense line

Muddiest Point!

Hi, Heidi here!

What I'm confused about is all the DEFINITIONS and what they DO. For example like what is BACTERIOPHAGE?? and PROPHAGE?? I'm always LOST when in class Mrs. Stein talks about this. Other things I get confused on are BINARY FISSION, PHAGOCYTE, ACTIVE/PASSIVE IMMUNITY, MACROPHAGE, and lastly HISTAMINES... I KNOW its a lot that I'm confused on but at least one thing being defined would be nice! THANKs!

p.s. Sorry I couldn't make it as beautiful and colorful as I wanted it, so that whoever reads it would be entertained as well. :) Somethings messed up with the program..... I guess. :(

Hi! It's Eunice C! I had some problems logging in but I'm in now!
I thought this unit was a bit confusing learning about all the bacteria's, viruses, the cells defenses, immunity, etc... BUT, the most difficult part for me was understanding the nonspecific and specific defense against diseases. How do they differ?

DID I JUST HEAR YOU SAY MUDD-I-E-S-T POINT?!

HEY! Rachie here! :) Muddiest Point.... Let's see... Well, mine has to be about the Memory B/Memory T cells. I dont get the difference! :(

Muddiest Point

Hey! It's Kara S! So my muddiest point is an antigen the same thing as a pathogen? or does a pathogen turn into an antigen?

Obligate and faculative what?

Hey its Jessie! Im really confused about whats obligate aerobes, obligate anaerobes, and faculative anaerobes are. Can some one please explain that for me? Also whats the diference between them? Thanks!

It's Jarod!

At the start of class we turned in the unit packet pages 13-18. Those pages were about how bacteria grows and how some of the antibiotics we used had killed them in their tracks. That assignment lead us in to a talk on how some bacteria could live in the zone of inhibition(to the right). Even thought you can't see it there are tiny colonies of bacteria that are in that zone right now! These bacteria are resistant to that antibiotic. The way that they can live there is because ether went threw spontaneous mutation or conjugation. Those are some big words. I hope you took notes! After we did the DOD which was Tuberculosis. The agent was bacteria itself and it is highly contagious and it's a huge health concern. Then we did a little lab on how a girl fell of her bike and got infected with bacteria and went to the hospital. They tried many antibiotics on her and she got better. some were able to resist antibiotics A,C,D. I won't tell you the answer myself. All of the above concluded the day.

The next scribe is Mark.
