Purpose of heat bath cell lysis step transformation lab
Weaken cell membrane
Purpose of freezing cell lysis step transformation lab

Column chromatography gfp isolation step of cell transformation lab
Gfp is large and does not get stuck in pores unlike other proteins gets caught and well
SDS page / reading gel isolation step of cell transformation lab
Small proteins go to bottom, electrical current moves it, more than one band means gfp was not isolated. Measure distance moved from the top then chart
Denatured DNA
Chain
Nature DNA
Folded up
Free genetic info is taken into the cell from the environment
Transformation
Exchange of genetic info between two bacteria
Conjugation
Agent transfers DNA between two bacteria
Transduction
BLAST
Put in the DNA sequence, says top matches. Use evalue and percent identity
E value
Chance of a random match should be 0 or negative
Percent identity
Percent that matches the sequence
Mutation
Mutated genes become resistant and pass on
Destroys the antibiotic for resistance
Inactivation
Pumps out the antibiotic
Efflux
ELISA
Enzyme linked immunosorbent assay. If a person has the disease. Antigen attaches to the DNA in the well, rest is washed out. Then add primary antigens, wash unbound out. Then add 2nd antibody. Add substrate to see color change, brighter color is higher concentration of bacteria
Killed virus, polio
Inactivated
Living weakened virus, mmr, chicken pox
Live antennuated
Uses part of a Target pathogen to cause response, hepatitis b, shingles
Subunit
mRNA enters the body, cells reveal the code for protein to trigger immune response, covid
mRNA
Uses toxins from bacteria, DTaP, tetanus
Toxoid
Prevent cross-linking in formation of peptidoglycan layer
Beta-lactans
Blocks TRNA binding sites, disrupts protein synthesis
Tetracycline
DNA gyrase is blocked, no unwinding of DNA prevents replication
Fluroquiniones
Blocks the enzyme to prevent folic acid
Sulfonamids
Hearing aids how they work in pros and cons
Uses a microphone, amplifier and speaker. Helps sensorial neuro hair cell damage, less severe
Cochlear implants how they work and pros and cons
Receive sound and sends through currents near auditory nerve, then signals brain. Used for a severe to profound hearing loss, for people who don’t benefit from hearing aids
How to read audiograms
X- left
O- right
[ ]- bone conductive hearing loss
Mixed, problems with conductive and sensory neural, will have a mix of both the brackets being low and the left and rights being low
Types of hearing loss
0-20 normal
21 - 40 mild
41-55 moderate
56-70 moderate severe
71-90 severe
90 + profound
Conductive versus sensory neural
Conductive is something physically blocks path of sound waves, bones, clogged up attaching tube
Sensorneural is when the sound waves are not being processed correctly
PCR
Polymerase chain reaction
Shorts sequence of DNA, complementary to Target sequence
Primer
Thermal cycler
Primers attached to open strand, makes New strand from template
Go through and copy DNA until a fluorescent nucleotide. Lasers read the colors and show it in the tube, represents bases
Cycle sequencing
Bones of ear
Malleus, incus, stapes , transmit vibrations to oval window
Eardrum, transmits vibrations to ossicles
Tympanic membrane
Translate waves into electric signals and sends down auditory nerve
Cochlea
Contains fluids that regulates pressure and helps with balance
Semicircular canals
Drains fluids and regulates pressure
Etachian tube
E coli growth on lb agar
E coli 1 and 2 both resistant because no antibiotic
E coli growth on lb and streptomycin
E coli one is resistant, e coli 2 is sensitive
E coli 1 and to resistance on lb and ampicillin
E coli one is sensitive, ecoli 2 is resistant
E coli 1 and 2 on lb streptomycin and ampicillin
Both e coli one and two are sensitive
Contains DNA in bacteria
Nucleoid
Protein synthesis
Ribosomes
Circular pieces of DNA that communicates genetic info to other bacteria
Plasmid
Regulates entrance and exit of bacteria
Plasma membrane
Shapes the cell
Cell wall
Helps protect bacteria
Capsule
Enables movement of bacteria
Flagella
Adheres to surfaces
Pili
What does sensitive mean
Killed by antibiotics
How do vaccines work
Part of the pathogen is put into a body, antibodies in the body recognize the foreign antigens and stimulate an immune response. Memory cells afterwards remember the cells to destroy them faster
Vaccines cause autism
Antigens found in autistic and non-autistic kids were the same
Infants can’t handle so many vaccinations at once
Kids are exposed to thousands of germs everyday, only takes up a small fraction of the immune response
Vaccines are needed because disease rates are low
If too many people do that herd immunity will be lost, everyone not vaccinated increases the risk of disease
Vaccines contain unsafe toxins
None unless you do large amounts, contains metals normally found in body
Sanitation and hygiene car the reason for disease
Sanitation and hygiene only stopped the spread vaccines keep you from getting sick and reduces the impact
General response that attacks and neutralizes pathogens regardless of what they are
Innate immunity
Targets specific pathogens
Adaptive immunity
A antigens b antibodies
A
B antigens a antibodies
B
Ab antigens no antibodies
Ab
No antigens ab antibodies
O
Organ allocations
Nota funds opt, no selling organs, give to how long, no socioeconomic status
Transformation lab purpose of cacl2

What type of hearing loss is it when bone conduction is 2x as long as air conduction
Conductive
What is true of molecular sieve
