YOUR TEACHER WILL REVIEW THE MAIN CONCEPTS OF MICROBIOLOGY. YOU WILL USE CLASS TIME TO DO THE ASSIGNMENT AND THE ASSIGNMENT CAN BE GROUP WORK.
This is an Introduction to Microbiology Notes, which cover Virus, and Monerans, with a mention of unicellular fungi. Read this document as an overview.
Read this Introduction to Viruses and also find out how Viruses can infect their hosts
Viruses can infect cells using the LYTIC CYCLE.
Review the
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.
COVID-19 is a virus that undergoes a lytic cycle, but it does not explode cells, instead, it simply gets released from a cell
MICROBIOLOGY ASSIGNMENT 1 What is a virus? out of /10
make a creative summary of the Introduction to Viruses . This summary must include the lytic cycle and the lysogenic cycle as it is described in the videos above and also in this text Viruses can infect their hosts.
