List the events of the outbreak and the response of CDC in the order that it took place:List this accurately and completely.Number the events and highlight the actions that eventually made the outbreak worse. List measures taken by the following countries to contain the outbreak: 20
We know that plants are important to the ecosystem because they photosynthesize. Did you know that some plants are legumes and these are special because they have ROOT NODULES which are nitrogen fixers. These root nodules are little rooms where Rhizobium bacteria convert nitrogen gas into ammonium and then Nitrobacter bacterium in the soil converts ammonium into nitrates. Plants can absorb nitrates to make plant protein. When those plants are eaten by animals, then animals use the nitrogen to make animal protein. You can say that all the protein on your body (muscles, enzymes, hair, fingernail etc) was built from nitrogen which was fixed by Rhizobium at some point in time.
ASSIGNMENT: 10 points
Only certain plants contain these root nodules...amongst them are bean plants and clover plants. Look at the morphology of clover plants below. Look on our school grounds and find AS MANY DIFFERENT GENETIC VARIETIES as you can. Upload your clover pic with Frog on a doc or ppt and hand in.
This picture is from research done by Tashiro et al on the genetics of clover plants. https://www.researchgate.net/publication/250119450_Leaf_Trait_Coloration_in_White_Clover_and_Molecular_Mapping_of_the_Red_Midrib_and_Leaflet_Number_Traits

With your teacher, review the microbe notes on *bacteria* in the introductory notes below. Focus on bacteria, including bacterial taxonomy, shapes, gram+ and gram-.
Hypothesize which area of the school might harbour more bacteria. We will sample the school soon!
Also use this work period to work on current projects and also study for a quiz tomorrow. I will likely return to school Friday.

This is an Introduction to Microbiology Notes, which cover Virus, and Monerans, with a mention of unicellular fungi. Read this document as an overview.
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

You will be quizzed on this when we return to class:
10 marks - you made a safety plan and established who is in your safety group (can be the same group as last field study) Group leader hands this in. 5 marks - your group is on time and present and ready to go 10 marks - you take pictures of the major species of the pacific west coast rain forest while we are there
Safety - Central Park is a large urban park in the lower mainland. You are expected to stay within your small group at all times as there are occasionally suspicious people in a large urban park
Route - for the class will be as follows once we get to Patterson Station
Trip plan (10 marks) includes the following:
Names of all group members and their cell phone numbers A trip itinerary A list of species you expect to see Safety considerations in this park All the consent forms of all members

On October 29,2021, we will visit the Beaty Museum and the Geology Building. We will meet at 11:30 am at the UBC bookstore. 6200 University Blvd, Vancouver, BC V6T 1Z4
We will take attendance and then walk over to the Museum of Anthropology
We will spend an hour at the museum and then proceed to the Geology museum to look at geology specimens. At 1:00pm or 1:30pm students will be dismissed from UBC and students will take the bus back home.
Please confirm with your parent or guardian and your last block class whether you are returning home or back to school.
The cost of the field study is: $5.50 for a self led visit. Please contact me if, for any reason, you would like to apply for a one of our school museum bursaries to attend this trip.
