Question 14

95. According to the video How Bacteria Rule over Your Body – The Microbiome, which statement does not describe the categories of “guests” we have consistently within our bodies?

Answer 14

Quiet Passenger- they take up space and keep more aggressive intruders in check
Guests that harm us but with whom we’ve learned to live-(acid on the teeth) they want to take up as much space as they can, and we don’t want them to. But, we can’t get rid of them entirely.
Friendly fellows that our bodies want to have around-most of them are a community of 380,000 billion bacteria, from up to 5,000 different species, that live in our gut.

Question 15

96. According to the video How Bacteria Rule over Your Body – The Microbiome, about how many species of gut bacteria do we contain? How are they beneficial?

Answer 15

380,000 billion bacteria, from up to 5,000 different species, These gut microorganisms help us digest food, and pull additional calories from things that we can’t digest ourselves.

Question 16

97. According to the video How Bacteria Rule over Your Body – The Microbiome, how has it been hypothesized our gut bacteria can communicate with our brains?

Answer 16

produce a messenger substances, that help to educate the immune system, and others stimulate the gut cells to regenerate faster.

Question 17

98. According to the video How Bacteria Rule over Your Body – The Microbiome, how can one decide what type of microbiome to grow within your gut (as you get older)?

Answer 17

But how it develops and changes is determined by what we eat.

Question 18

99. Bacteria can be used to complete bioremediation. What is bioremediation?

Answer 18

Bioremediation - the use of organisms to remove pollutants from water, air, and soil

Question 19

100. What are pseudomonads?

Answer 19

Pseudomonads - type of bacteria species used to breakdown oil based products or petroleum based

Question 20

101. How can bacteria be used as biofactories?

Answer 20

Commercial production of enzymes, vitamins, antibiotics, and acetone.

Question 21

102. What is a superbug?

Answer 21

The bacteria that is resistant to antibiotics.

Question 22

103. According to the video The Decreasing Effectiveness of Antibiotics, why are antibiotics the only class of drugs that the more we use, the more rapidly we lose their effectiveness against pathogenic bacteria?

Answer 22

the more you expose a bacteria to an antibiotic the greater the likelihood that the resistance to that antibiotic is going to develop so the more antibiotics we put into people we put into the environment the more opportunities we create create for these bacteria to become resistant

Question 23

104. According to the video How Industrial Farming Techniques Can Breed Superbugs, what type of farming technique is considered a fertile breeding ground for disease? Instead of fixing these systems, what do they add instead?

Answer 23

They are called concentrated animal feeding operations.
add low doses of antibiotics to try to prevent infection

Question 24

105. According to the video The Antibiotic Apocalypse Explained, how do antibiotic destroy bacteria?

Answer 24

interfering with its metabolism, slowing down their growth significantly
attack DNA and prevent it from being replicated, which stops bacteria from multiplying, ultimately killing them. ripping the outer layer of the bacteria to shreds, so that their insides spill out and they die quickly

Question 25

106. According to the video The Antibiotic Apocalypse Explained, by pure random chances, which statement describes a way some bacteria can become resistant to antibiotics?

Answer 25

by intercepting the antibiotics and changing the molecule so it becomes harmless. Or by investing energy in pumps that eject the antibiotics before they can do damage.

Question 26

107. According to the video The Antibiotic Apocalypse Explained, which statement describes a way bacteria spreads immunity?

Answer 26

bacteria can harvest dead bacteria and collect DNA pieces. exchange those plasmids to exchange useful abilities.
