BIO 2400: Microbiology

Discover how the protein coat from pathogenic cells can transform nonpathogenic cells, the surprising role of heat-killed pathogenic cells in causing pneumonia, and the transfer of pathogenic traits from one cell to another. Join us on this journey of scientific exploration as we unravel the mysteries of bacterial transformation and more.

Explore the anatomy of white and gray rami communicantes, their ties to spinal nerves, and the distinct fibers in each ramus. Learn how the myelinated fibers of white rami differ from the unmyelinated fibers in gray rami. Gain a deeper understanding of our nervous system's complexity through these intricate relationships.

Gain a clear understanding of chemical equilibrium, where reactant and product concentrations stay constant due to equal forward and reverse reaction rates. Dispel common misconceptions about equilibrium, such as concentration equality and reaction reversibility.

Explore stromatolites, the oldest indicators of life on Earth formed by microbial actions. Understand their presence in shallow marine environments and their connection to early eukaryotic life.
