PUBH 6011 Week 6 Exam with Complete Solutions Microbes - Answer-microscopic organisms, most microbes are not pathogens but some are, we need a microscope to view them all. three kingdoms (domains) - Answer-bacteria, archaea, eukarya Microbiome - Answer-all of the microorganisms that live in a particular environment, such as a human body, the microbiome is more medically accessible and more manipulable than the human genome. Many are beneficial. uses for microbes - Answer-we make ferme...

All lectures of the master course digesting the microbiome (NWI-BM081) are covered in the document (using the powerpoint slides and additional information covered in the lectures). The figures included are taken from the PowerPoint slides. All processes and concepts discussed are extensively described using examples and figures.

Digests & absorbs food - small intestine Houses bacteria that produces several vitamins - Large intestine Produces bile - liver Secretes hormones to maintain blood glucose levels - Pancreas Begins digestion of carbohydrates - mouth Diet quality can affect the gut microbiome by enhancing or limiting the diversity of beneficial microorganisms in the gut. Select the foods that are supportive of a healthy microbiome. Select all that apply. a. Omega-3 fatty acids b. Refined/processed grains ...

CMMB 343 Final Exam How does the microbiome of the human GI tract compare to human genomic cells in the body? (2) 1. approx 1:1 ratio of human cells to microbes (~10 trillion each) 2. The ORFs in the microbiome outnumber the ORFs in our genome 150:1 Define: 1. Microhabitat 2. Microbiota 3. Microbiome 1. Microhabitat -location that supports different microbes (skin, GI tract, etc) -not homologous; skin is a microhabitat but armpit skin different from bicep skin) 2. Mi...
