Cancer causing viruses

is HPV, cause 70% of cervical cancers

2
New cards

lysogenic life cycles

  • reproduce in cells nucleus

  • insert DNA into host DNA by recombination

  • each time host DNA replicates, virus does too, cause Cold sores,multiplesclerosis, Type 1 diabetes, rheumatoid arthritis

3
New cards

lythic life cycle

In virus, cells ribiosomes which synthesize proteins are tricked into replicating viral genes and proteins new virus= burst out of cells and stroy host. or bud off host cell

4
New cards

Virus

Composed of a genome of one or more strandsof DNA or RNA a protective protein coat and a lipid envelope. reproductivity parlayzing a living cell/

5
New cards

Mould

Filamentouse funghi; ihanlation of spores that cause respitory issues and can lead to lung cancer

6
New cards

Mycosis

Fungal infection. 1st level; ringworm,athletes foot in top layer of skin

7
New cards

Mycorrhizal association

symbotic relationship with funghi in soil and plants

8
New cards

Giardia

excavata common parasitic protists, caused by beaver fever can be caused by contaminated water

9
New cards

Protists

eukrayotic organisims that cannot be readily classified as plants, animals or funghi. but are single celled or multicelled and live through photosynthesis,parasitism or consumption of other organisims.

10
New cards

Virbio Cholera

bacterium that causes cholera.

11
New cards

ectopic

bacteria that lives harmlessly in specified location but if it enters anothe rit cayses diseases. sometimes pathogenic

12
New cards

Staphylococcus aureus

bacteria found on skin, mucous membranes, mouths and gastrantestal tract. can cause alot of diseases like toxic shock syndrome, fever, pnemounia, felsh eating disease.

14
New cards

Pathogenic bacteria

bacteria that causes disease and alot of damage cause 50% of diseases.

15
New cards

Robert Koch

pionerred labratory techniques for isoltaing different bacteria. identified the bacterium that causes anthrax by examining blood smaples of infected animals

New cards

microbiology

study of microbial life

18
New cards

Stromalites

mats of microscopic organisms similar to modern photosynthetic cyanobacteria

19
New cards

Prokaryotes

bacteria that does not have a nucleus

20
New cards

normal flora

bacteria grown on or in your body that is not harmful called indegenous microbiota, elimates toxins, manufactures vitamin k and b12, protects from pathogenic bacteria

21
New cards

Pathogenic bacteria

disease causing bacteria

22
