vertical
are procedures that prevent microbial contamination of sterile surfaces-aseptic technique
aseptic technique
the full collection of genes that a cell has
Genotype
mice injected with smooth strain
Die
Production of protein based on an Mna template
translation
DNA Is made up of theses three things

single ringed pyramids
heat killed s strain mice
Live
Adds deoxyribonucleotides (complementary to a nucleotide on the template strand), one by one to the 3’-OH group of the growing DNA chain
DNA polymerase III
Biofilm members can coordinate their activities in response to environmental stimuli by
quorum sensing
Individual nucleotides are linked by covalent bonds known as
phosphodiester bonds
Reduces microbial load on skin or tissue through application of an antimicrobial chemical (antiseptic) Does not penetrate tissue deeply or cause tissue damage Example: cleaning a wound with iodine
Antisepsis
genes that are always expressed
constitutive Genes
Relieves the stress by breaking and resealing the DNA to relax the DNA
Gyrase (topoisomerase)
thrive in the presence of oxygen, but also grow in the absence by relying on fermentation or anaerobic respiration
Facultative anaerobes
