What are the four hormone classes? 17.2 ● Hormones can be divided into two major groups on the basis of the chemical structure- derived from amino acids or lipids 1. Amine Hormone- Amino acids with modified groups (norepinephrines carboxyl group is replaced with a benzene ring) 2. Peptide Hormone- Short chains of linked amino acids 3. Protein Hormone- Long chains of linked amino acids 4. Steroid Hormones- Derived from the lipid cholesterol Which are lipid soluble vs. water soluble? W...

. Temperature (Section 9.4) • Psychrophiles: prefer cooler temperatures (below 15 degrees C). Do not live in humans. (Psychorotrophs grow at higher temps and can cause spoilage of refrigerated foods). • Mesophiles: prefer 25-40 degrees C. Live in humans as pathogens and non-pathogens. • Thermophiles: prefer 50-60 degrees C. Found in compost piles and hot springs. o Often domain archaea o Often not pathogens to humans Temperature Considerations: • Minimum growth temperatur...

• What is the role of oxygen in bacterial metabolism? • What about carbon? • Explain how a low pH affects bacterial metabolism. Shuts down metabolism because it ruins the enzymes that the bacteria need to survive. • Bacteria have varying oxygen requirements. Which category describes those that would grow deep in the soil? o Obligate aerobic- requires oxygen for energy production as an electron acceptor o Facultative anaerobic- can thrive in oxygen but can also use another electron...

1. Greedy algorithm do not work. (40 pts.) Anaturalalgorithm, GreedyIndep, forcomputingmaximumindependentsetinagraph, istorepeatedly remove the vertex of lowest degree in the graph, and add it to the independent set, and remove all its neighbors. (A) (5 pts.) Show an example, where this algorithm fails to output the optimal solution. Solution: Consider the example depicted below. The algorithm would choose the vertex 1 and one vertex out of 4,5,6, or 7. Namely, generating an independent se...

1. Approaches to Control Microbes a. Physical Methods i. Dry 1. incineration or dry oven  sterilization ii. Moist heat 1. Boiling water, steam under pressure  sterilization 2. Kills microbes by denaturing enzymes 3. Ex. Autoclaving iii. Radiation 1. Irradiation – bombardment with radiation 2. Ionizing – can penetrate a solid barrier, bombard a cell, enter it, and dislodge electrons form molecules a. x-ray, cathode, gamma  sterilization 3. Nonionizing – enters a c...
