Imagine you are an astronaut and you are the first person to walk on Mars. You make the surprising discovery that there are "bacteria-like organisms" on Mars. Which of the following do not need to be true for you to consider these "bacteria-like organisms" as living? They must be able to reproduce. They must be able to respond to their environment. They must be able to transform energy. They must be able to move.

A biologist is studying an organism that is single-celled. With only this information, we know that the organism could be only a microbial eukaryote. a bacterium, archaean, or microbial eukaryote. a bacterium or an archaean. only an archaean. only a bacterium.
Which of the following statements are TRUE about organisms in the Domain Bacteria? I. Consist of bacteria and cyanobacteria II. Some are photoautotrophs III. Genetic material is a single stranded DNA IV. Organelles are not present
two ways bacteria are harmful and two ways they are helpful to humans?
Antibiotics are a form of medicine used to treat bacterial infections. However, new bacteria are evolving that are resistant to antibiotics. When someone uses antibiotics, they often contribute in a small way to an increase in the number of bacteria that are resistant to antibiotics. How would an economist classify antibiotic use? Public health officials are concerned with the overuse of antibiotics, which leads to bacteria being resistant to antibiotics. What is a solution to this problem?
Fill in the blank: Bacteria are believed to have evolved some _______________ years ago.
Your friend Jim Crackcorn has developed a new antibiotic that damages the integrity of the cell wall by breaking down peptidoglycan. Jim tells you that he predicts that gram positive bacteria, gram negative bacteria and archaeal cells will be equally sensitive to this antibiotic. Do you agree with Jim’s prediction? If you agree, explain in your own words why you agree. If you disagree, explain in your own words what you would predict and why.
The gobacter is a unique type of bacteria that has the ability to produce and breathe electricity. Do you think that there will be a role in the future for this type of bacteria in treating people who suffer from excess electricity in their bodies ??

We put everything in our mouth since our childhood. Therefore our mouth is full of live bacteria. These bacteria are potentially dangerous if they cross our gut wall into our blood circulation. Fortunately we are protected from them by our gut's mucosal lining and the cells (macrophages, dendritic cells, B and T lymphocytes) in the lymphoid tissue called [a] (enter two words). This structure play a crucial role for the development of food tolerance or food [b] (enter one word), coeliac disease and chronic inflammatory bowel disease.
What role does the human microfauna play in protecting humans against pathogens? (At this point in the class, you should be able to provide a detailed list of activities bacteria species perform in and on our body that protect us from pathogens.)
Antibiotic resistant bacteria have become a major concern for many public health officials. Widespread use of antibiotics has created an evolutionary pressure on infectious bacteria to develop immunity to these medications. The result is an increase in antibiotic resistant microbes, particularly in settings where antibiotics are commonly used, such as hospitals. One strategy public health officials have devised to counteract these infectious microbes is "antibiotic cycling” where specific antibiotics are withdrawn from the market for a period of several years, then reintroduced as another antibiotic is withdrawn. How would this strategy help limit antibiotic resistance? A. It is impossible for a bacterium to maintain resistance to two antibiotics at once B. When a given antibiotic is not in use, it is an evolutionary disadvantage to carry the unneeded gene C. If a specific antibiotic is removed from the market it is possible to substitute with a related antibiotic such as…
