Microbiology Diary
the upload file is an example of what you gonna write. DO NOT fabricate your entries to create a possible encounter. I am looking for reflection on real-life activities. Briefly leaf through a microbiology textbook taking note of the diverse activities of microorganisms. 1. This will help you focus on your “unseen encounters” with microbes. 2. Prepare a Word or other rich text file (.rtf) format using font size 12 in “Times” or “Times New Roman” style. 3. Write a paragraph each day for 7 consecutive days describing how microbes have interacted with you that day. State the connection between the specific event and the activity of the microbes involved. Be sure to use correct grammar, spelling, and nomenclature. Use a diary format, listing dates. 4. At the end of the week, write a 1 paragraph summary reflecting on your experience. In your summary paragraph, highlight your “favorite” organism encounter by including a possible proper name (genus and species). Also state whether your organism is a bacterium, virus, parasite, or fungus. We are asking you to make an intelligent, reasonable* guess. (*You will lose points for outrageous proposals. E.g., the Salmonella that you may have gotten with your salad bar probably wasn’t S. typhi!)
