Binomial

A

Genus and species. The two-part name used for organisms today

Father of taxonomy. Invented the binomial meaning system

56
Q

Edward Jenner

A

Invented the vaccination. He used cowpox to prevent smallpox

57
Q

Vaccination

A

Using a dead or heat killed pathogen, or the other protein coat of a pathogen to make a vaccine which trigger antibody formation and prevents disease.

58
Q

Variolation

A

Using skin scabs form smallpox to produce either in mild case of smallpox, or prevent the disease. Some people die from this treatment

59
Q

Temperate cycle

A

A viral infection cycle where the virus incorporates into the DNA of the host cell. Replicates each time the cell divides, and later goes into the lytic cycle and kills the host cell.

60
Q

Lytic cycle

A

A virus infects a host cell, builds new virus particles, and bursts the cell to release the new virus.

61
