Bacteria
The part of the cell that contains the genetic material of the bacteria
What is Nucleoid?
This antibiotic is most commonly used to treat an infection of meningitis.
What is penicillin?
True or False: In order for something to be considered a medical intervention, it has to come from a brand new idea.
What is false?
True or False: All viruses are transmitted through airborne droplets.
Calculate the tube dilution for this scenario:
10 ml of solution is added to a tube already containing 30 ml of the same solution.
What is 1/4?
The part of the cell that allows the bacteria to swim.
What is flagellum?
This type of antibiotic treats an infection by preventing a bacterial cell from synthesizing proteins.
What is tetracyclines?
This type of intervention occurs typically after someone has sustained an injury and needs to regain strength or mobility in the injured body part/area.
What is rehabilitation?
Fill in the blank: Once infected with a virus, your body uses *blank* to combat the *blank* released into your body by the pathogen.
What is Antibodies and Antigens?
Calculate the final dilution of the current scenario:
10 ml of solution is added to a tube already containing 10 ml of solution. What would the final dilution of the 4th tube be?
What is 1/16?
This part of the cell holds all organelles and protects them within the cell.
What is cytoplasm?
This type of antibiotic works by preventing bacterial cells from synthesizing a cell wall.
What is beta lactams?
You scrape your knee and use anti-bacterial ointment and a band-aid to treat it. Would you consider this a medical intervention and why?
Yes
An outbreak of Ebola has struck Excel High School. Already 25% of the school has been infected. Outline a plan of action to stop the spread.
****
25 ml is being added to a tube already containing 25 ml of solution. What would the tube dilution of the 3rd tube be?
What is 1/2?
Explain the difference between a gram-positive and gram-negative cell.
Negative: thin peptidoglycan layer and outer lipid membrane
Positive: Thick peptidoglycan and no outer lipid membrane
This type of antibiotic is commonly used to treat urinary tract infections.
What is fluoroquinolones?
True or False: Everyone in some way is capable of carrying out a medical intervention.
What is true?
Describe one method that can be used to determine whether someone is infected or not.
What is ELISA?
The starting concentration of my solution is 450 mg/ml. I've added 5 ml to a tube that already contains 20 ml. What is my concentration in the 1st tube?
What is 90 mg/ml?
The doctor prescribes a antibiotic that is considered to be a "broad spectrum" antibiotic. Is the bacteria responsible for my infection gram-negative or gram-positive?
Could be both!
Give a specific example in which bacteria will become resistant to the use of antibiotics.
****
List the three categories of a medical intervention and give an example of each.
What is Diagnosis, Prevention, and Treatment?
Team with most is awarded points.
my starting concentration is 200 mg/ml. I add 10 ml of solution to a tube that already contains 10 ml of solution. What would the concentration in the 4th tube be?
*Bonus points if you propose a alternate method to solve this
What is 12.5 mg/ml?
Bonus: Solve for final dilution of 4th tube and multiply by the starting concentration.
