The chapters the information will come from is Chapters 7, 8, & 10
INSTRUCTIONS: This discussion is based on the unit presentations and the textbook readings from Microbiology OpenStax. Before contributing to the discussion, review the required presentations and reading material.
Chapter 7 Microbial Diversity (Biochemistry)
Chapter 8 Microbial Metabolism
Chapter 10 (Links to an external site.) Structure and Function of DNA and RNA
Post your response to the questions below, making sure to include any necessary citations to appropriate readings. Make sure to provide some examples from the text and lecture material (located in the Unit folders), as well as from your own experiences.
After completing your required reading, please answer 2 prompts listed below:
Distinguish organic molecules, structure, and function. Be sure to talk about all 4 molecules. (USLO 3.1)
Distinguish enzyme structure, function, and inhibition. (USLO 3.2)
Differentiate catabolism, anabolism, and energy. (USLO 3.3)
Discuss the steps of carbohydrate metabolism (glycolysis, Krebs cycle, and electron transport chain). (USLO 3.4)
Compare the energy yield and final electron acceptors of metabolic pathways. (USLO 3.5)
List and discuss the metabolic diversity of microorganisms. Ex: Chemoheterotrophs (USLO 3.6)
