MICROBIOLOGY
Across
- 4. Virus first discovered in 1981 and is the cause of AIDS
- 6. No toxin is present and therefore no hemolysis is seen around the colonies
- 8. Presence of microorganisms growing on a laboratory that contains nutrients needed to grow microorganisms
- 11. Laboratory material that contains medium to grow microorganisms
- 12. Based on shapes and growing pattern
- 13. Cell wall around bacteria
- 14. Cause of the 2020 pandemic still going on
- 16. Process of transferring microorganisms into or on a culture medium for growth
- 17. Gram Positive
- 19. Possess a true nucleus with a nuclear membrane
- 20. Round bacterium that grows in a variety of formations
- 24. Pear shaped protozoa with four flagella
Down
- 1. 3% of the worlds population is infected with this virus that attacks the liver
- 2. Complete hemolysis of RBCs, seen as a cleared area where the colonies have hemolyzed the blood
- 3. Live in or on a host and derive nourishment from the host
- 5. Disease that occurs when pathogenic microorganisms invade the body and overcome its natural defense mechanisms
- 7. Incomplete hemolysis of RBCs, seen as a green color around colonies
- 9. Study of Microorganisms
- 10. Shaped like rods, ex: UTI, Tetnus
- 15. Identification of the antibiotic of choice to treat an infection
- 18. Acid-fast bacilli that commonly affects your respiratory system
- 21. Smallest organisms and live in a host cell
- 22. Unicellular organisms that do not have a true nucleus
- 23. Antibiotic disk that can be used to identify Streptococcus pyogenes
- 25. Infection capable of forming pus
