My name is Sajidah.Currently study in major of microbiology in UPM.Microbiology is y first choice for degree I hope to be the unusual microbiologist.Hope to learn more about microbes.

Principles of ecology.This chapter has a lot of definition need to be know. Abiotic factor are non living part of enviroments such as temperature water sunlight wind rocks and soil periodic disturbances https://classconnection.s3.amazonaws.com/665/flashcards/2470665/png/abiotic_factor1362439889644.png Homeostasis is dynamic balance of processes,materials and organisms in the ecosytem and biosphere Microbes also have roles in the ecosystems oxygen producer. Half of oxygen produce by blue-green algae in the ocean.I wonder how this algae can produce oxygen?Does it has same process as in tree? fix nitrogen in the atmosphere into usable form recyclers of dead materials source in food chain contribution to evolution:remove weaker species through infections What I  have learn: -Ecology is the systematci study of organisms and their interactions with enviroment -Example of decomposer is fungi -blue-green algae produce oxygen

9/12/14  We continue learning about microbial metabolism.   Cellular respiration is process cells use to convert  E in chemical bonds of nutrients to ATP E. Aerobic respiration -involves an electron transport system -final electron acceptor is oxygen gas. -total theoretical maximum number atp generated perglucose in prokaryote is 38.In eukaryotr is 36-38.This different from prokaryote because depending on how 2NADH generated in cytoplasm during glycolysis enter mitochondria resulting 2 or 3 atp per NADH but in prokaryote there are no mitochondria 38 can be produce. metabolic pathways- I hope I can know what species of eukaryote will produce  36 atp and 37,38.Before this I only think that plant hae specific respiration but now microbe also have respiration process that some steps similar to plants. Carbon fixation -light dependent reaction consumes atp most commo pathway is Calvin cycle. The other name for carbon cycle is  Calvin-Benson C...

The first topic that I learn in BMY 3102 is Nomenclature and classification of microorganism.In this topic I learn about how to correctly write name for microbe.I also learn how the process of naming new bacteria which from my view it is little bit complicated and take a long time to name a new bacteria.When studying about this I have been expose to the Bergey Manual. I also have been exposed about Bergey Manual.Which I have been ask to go library to find it and take picture of it.It has two type that are systematic and determinative. Next, I learn about classification system that are phenetic, phylogenetic and genotypic.Phenetic is about numerical taxonomy which related to dendogram, Phylogenetic is based on phylogenetic tree lastly,genotypic is more to other molecular methods.Under all of these system many methods are used.Some of them combine many methods to classify the microorganism.All these method can be divide under two group that are classical and molecular method.I was ...
