Q

Acquired antibiotic resistance can develop in …

A

2 types : 1- intrinsince resistance : nature o resistance of microrgasnim (always been like this )
2- acquired resistance:microorganism used to be sensitive but not anymore !
occurs through ‘natural selection
- Quickly happen due to quick reproduction rate (every 20 min)
- develop in two ways: 1- spontaneous random mutation
2-mobile genetic elements ➡transferred between bacteria ( from resistant not pathogen to pathogen) ➡acquisition’ of resistance genes
Such mobile genetic elements often contain gene clusters that may also contain multiple resistance factors, giving the recipient microorganism multiple resistance characteristics.
Horizontal gene transfer =assimilate DNA from other cells and integrate it into its own genetic backroun

Q

demographic processes

A

16
Q

become
pivotal to understand differences between populations

A

Interaction of humans with their environment

17
Q

Food Epitope Hypothesis

A

diverse diet/wide range of different foods→broader array of epitopes →more robust and adaptable immune response

18
Q

robustness and plasticity

A

Robustness refers to a phenotype’s resistance to change despite environmental or genetic perturbations, while plasticity indicates the ability of two individuals with the same genotype to respond differently to the environment during development.

19
Q

reaction norms

A

describe the RANGE of phenotypic expressions a single genotype can produce in response to varying environmental conditions. They illustrate the adaptability of organisms by showcasing the diverse traits a genotype can AND COMPELXITY.

genotype x environemtn interaction

understand the flexibility and
adaptability of organisms in response to
environmental changes

20
Q

**Genotype-phenotype (G-P) maps

A
21
Q

. External environments

A

emperature, humidity, availability of resource

22
Q

internal environments

A

conditions within the organism’s body.

23
Q

phenotype INTERPLAY

A

genes and the environment

24
Q

nternal phenotypes

A

s include cellular, tissue
level and physiological properties

environment+ postion of an indivifudal in the g space

25
Q

t external
phenotype

A

morphology

26
Q

PHENOTYPE can be measured

A

morphologically, physiologically or biochemically

27
Q

Homeostasis

A

Resilience is at the core of life and is interpreted as the harmonic
assemblage of the biochemical processes that are aimed at
maintaining the identity, integrity, and autonomy of individual
organisms against the perturbations induced by both internal and
external environments
ability of the
organisms to maintain a stable internal
environment despite diverse, disruptive
external enironmental influences
HOMEO = same
STASIS = standing
* Homeostasis is part of SURVIVAL
temporary adaptation/physiological changes

28
Q

HOMEO

A

same

29
Q

STASIS

A

standing
