Bacteria use this form of asexual reproduction
Fission
A pathogen can enter the body through...
cut, air, food

Animal like, plant like and fungi like!
Bamboo is a vascular / non-vascular plant

Anaerobic Bacteria
Jessica buys a new puppy named Waffles! The puppy is unvaccinated. She wants to take it to a dog park - why is this a bad idea?
(Explain using the words pathogen, immunity and antibodies)
Jessica should not take Waffles to the dog park, because it would be exposed to new pathogens that the dog does not have antibodies for. Once the dog is vaccinated, the dog can build up its immune system.
Three characteristics of fungi
Eukaryotes, Heterotrophic and absorb nutrients through hyphae network (mycelium)
List the five classes of chordate animals
How much bacteria would there be if 25 bacteria underwent fission 3 times?

Each fission cycle takes 30 minutes, how long did the fission cycle take for 2 bacteria to divide into 16 bacteria?

How is bacteria both helpful and harmful
Helpful - helps plants obtain nitrogen, cleans up pollution with bioremediation, helps digest food, decomposes organisms into soil, helps make food
Harmful - can cause illness
How is a virus different from bacteria (list 3 ways)
Viruses are non-living, not cells, are typically contagious, are smaller than bacteria, no nucleus or organelles, need a host cell to survive
Create a dichotomous key for three species -
Ladybug, Sloth, Panda
(must be opposing, have 2 criteria)
Ex.
1a. This species has spots - Ladybug
1b. These species do not have spots, go to 2
2a. This species has black and white fur - panda
2b. This species has camouflaged fur - sloth
