Across
  1. 1. cholesterol and some hormones are an example of this type of lipid
  2. 3. idea that bad gases caused disease
  3. 4. mostly double stranded and uses nucleotides A,T,C,G
  4. 9. concept that disease is caused by an infectious disease agent
  5. 12. means cow in latin and is a tribute to the use of cowpox to give immunity
  6. 14. macromolecule group that is mostly hydrophobic
  7. 16. hypothesis that life can arise from non-living matter
  8. 17. disease caused by bacterium, Yersinia pestis
  9. 18. first to use chemical disinfectants to reduce surgical wound infections
  10. 20. used meat in jars covered with mesh to test SG.
  11. 21. macromolecules that store and pass genetic information
  12. 22. essential elements we need small amounts of
  13. 23. simplest of sugars
  14. 25. first person to propose 3 mechanisms of spreading disease cause by "invisible living creatures"
  15. 28. first person to ever propose that illness was caused my "minute animals" in marshy places
  16. 29. large complex molecule made of several covalently bonded subunits
  17. 30. German microbiologist who proved a bacterium caused Anthrax (also known as the "Father of Bacteriology")
  18. 31. physician who developed modern approach to generating immunity via vaccination
  19. 32. first person to ever see a cell
Down
  1. 2. molecules that consist of chains of carbon atoms (usually associated with H)
  2. 5. monomer units of proteins
  3. 6. single organic subunit
  4. 7. disproved SG, developed method for extending shelf life of some foods/beverages
  5. 8. early advocate for handwashing
  6. 10. elements we need a lot of (C,H,O,N,P,S)
  7. 11. major component of cell membranes and is amphipathic
  8. 13. developed the first rabies vaccine
  9. 15. functions of this macromolecule include immunity, cellular transport, enzymatic roles, and many more
  10. 19. mostly single stranded and uses nucleotides A,U,C,G
  11. 24. highly versatile element that can form 4 covalent bonds
  12. 26. macromolecule that functions in energy storage and structural material
  13. 27. Father of Microbiology
