BIO 242[naked flask]
question and correct
choices.................
WHAT IS THE PURPOSE OF A SWAN NECKED FLASK? - ANSWERS-Pasteur's swan necked flask
shows that they remained free of microbes in the absence of microorganisms, disproving the
theory of spontaneous generation
A SPECIFIC ________ CAUSES A SPECIFIC DISEASE - ANSWERS-microbe
WHICH SCIENTIST PROMOTED HAND SANITIZER? - ANSWERS-Joseph Lister
GRAM STAINING IS WHAT TYPE OF STAINING? - ANSWERS-differential staining
WHAT ARE THE 5 I'S OF MICROBIOLOGY (IN ORDER) - ANSWERS-inoculation
incubation
isolation
inspection
identification
MAGNIFICATION IN MICROSCOPE - ANSWERS-lower objective lens
, lower ocular lens
DNA IS A _________ HELIX - ANSWERS-double
ATP IS WHAT TYPE OF MOLECULE? - ANSWERS-energy molecule
POINT MUTATION - ANSWERS-gene mutation in which a single base pair in DNA has been
changed
HORIZONTAL GENE TRANSFER- (1)CONJUGATION - ANSWERS-conjugation requires physical
contact between two microorganism via an appendage known as the pilli
HORIZONTAL GENE TRANSFER- (2) TRANSFORMATION - ANSWERS-Transformation does NOT
require a physical interaction between two cells and is an indirect transfer technique
HORIZONTAL GENE TRANSFER- (3) TRANSDUCTION - ANSWERS-The final type of horizontal gene
transfer, transduction, is also an indirect transfer technique. This technique requires the use of a
defective bacteriophage (bacterial virus) to transfer DNA from one bacteria to another. The
bacteriophage infects a bacterial cell, the viral genome is replicated, and then the viral proteins
and nucleic acid are assembled into a mature bacteriophage.
HORIZONTAL GENE TRANSFER- (4) TRANSPOSABLE - ANSWERS-TEs have the ability to shift from
one part of the genome to another and so are termed "jumping genes."
GENE THERAPY - ANSWERS-Gene therapy involves the repair or correction of a faulty gene in
humans suffering from a fatal or debilitating disease.
