Create a cartoon summarizing the following article on the Microbiome

Read this article on the Microbiome .  And draw a cartoon summary of the main points of this article.   If it includes the main points, is in colour and inked and handed in next day, I will mark it out of 20 and add this to your test score

RUBRIK
17-20/20 .  You included all the main points in your own words and It is excellent and very creative.
                    In fact, you use creativity to make an analogy of the microbiome
                   It is in ink and in colour

13-16/20     It is extremely well done. I'm impressed with the way you included most of the
                    main points.    It is in pencil or it is in ink and  not in colour

0-10/20       You had a good start but for some reason, you didn't have enough time to put all your
                    talents into this project.
                    You did a really good job but you handed it in late...two weeks late after spring break!

INTRO TO MICROBIOLOGY - WE WILL VISIT THE BEATY MUSEUM ON FRIDAY

Today you will go over the Introduction to Microbiology Notes, which cover Virus, and Monerans, with a mention of unicellular fungi.  

STEPS TO THE LYTIC CYLE: memorize AESAR

• Attachment
• Entry & degradation of host's DNA
• Synthesis of new viruses 
• duplication of virus' genetic material
• creation of new virus parts
• Assembly of parts into new viruses
• Release of new viruses

 video shows lytic cycle




 steps to the lysogenic cycle:  memorize AEIM

• Attachment
• Entry (no degradation of host DNA)
• Integration using integrase enzyme
• Mitosis
• Host+virus DNA duplicated
• cytokinesis
• A virus that uses the lysogenic life cycle is termed either a provirus or prophage. What causes various proviruses to shift to the lytic cycle is not completely understood, but in some cases stress is the stimulus.
