Prokaryotic & Eukaryotic Cells Discussion

I’m working on a health & medical discussion question and need support to help me understand better.

Book: Black & Black. Microbiology Principles and Exploration 10th ED. Hoboken, NJ: Wiley & Sons 2018

Description:

Students will discuss the most essential topics covered in Modules 1-4 as a review for the midterm assessment.

Objectives:

• Summarize the main themes of Microbiology and briefly outline the major historical events of this field of Science.
• Discuss the evolution, classification, and naming of microorganisms.
• Provide an overview of the Chemistry of Biology including a discussion of atoms, chemical bonds, molecules, and organic compounds common to all cells.
• Summarize the methods used to study microorganism in a laboratory including: microscopy, isolation and identification techniques known as the “six I’s”, and culture media.
• Compare and contrast the structure and function of prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells, and discuss the following groups of eukaryotic organisms: fungi, algae, protozoa, and helminthes.
• Discuss viruses with regard to structure, classification, multiplication cycle, cultivation techniques, detection and treatment methods.
• Explain microbial nutrition and discuss transport mechanisms, environmental factors that can influence growth, and methods to study microbial growth.
• Define the role of enzymes in microbial metabolism, differentiate between anabolism and catabolism, and provide an overview of the process of photosynthesis.
• Discuss control methods for microorganisms and differentiate between physical methods of control and chemical methods of control.
• Summarize the principles of antimicrobial chemotherapy and discuss the major antimicrobial drug groups.
• Highlight the important concepts of microbe-human interaction in health and in infection and disease.

Instructions:
