Write on section 3 everything you know about the viruses. •Are they alive? •How are they? •How do they reproduce? •Why do they cause diseases? Virus Viruses are not alive 3. Viruses don’t have organelles. They can’t create energy on their own because they don’t have mitochondria or chloroplast. Capsid DNA or RNA 1. Viruses need a host cell to live, because they need to infect her to survive 2. In its structure, the virus has: • Nucleic Acids (DNA or RNA) •Protein Capsid 4. The viruses that infect bacteria are called bacteriophage Host cell – The cell that is infected by the virus 5. Lytic cycle: a virus infects a cell, it reproduces and it destroys the host cell that it has just infected. Virions are released to infect other cells What happens to the host cells after being infected? 6. Lysogenic cycle: •The cycle has an extra phase that is called PROPHAGE. •The nucleic acid from the virus gets recombined with the host DNA for a while. •After that, it enters the lytic cycle. Virions are released to infect other cells HIV is a lysogenic virus http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F23ygNs uOrM Glycoproteins to be identified AIDS (disease) vs HIV (virus) 7. AIDS – Acquired Immunodeficiency Syndrome 8. HIV – Human Immunodeficiency Virus T LIMFOCITES 9. AIDS is developed when the immune system cells are destroyed, which leaves the body vulnerable to any kind of infection that doesn’t affect the general population. IT TRANSMITS HIV IT DOESN’T TRANSMIT HIV BLOOD SALIVA BREAST MILK THROUGH ANIMALS OR FOOD SEXUAL FLUIDS AIR 10. The best way to prevent a viral disease is using a vaccine. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jJwGNPRmyTI 11. Vaccine: A medicine that contains inactive or weak viruses. What is the explanation about what Edward Jenner did? Do you think that it is ethical to do this experiment in a young person? How would you test a vaccine? 12. Viruses can be transmitted by: Direct contact – Cold Inhalation – Flu, chicken pox, cold Bites – Rabies, West nile virus Sexual contact – AIDS, hepatitis B Contaminated blood Contaminated needles VIRUS DEL EBOLA http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ps_3DR F3bq0 Bacteria What do you know about bacteria? Talk to your partner for 1 minute Are they alive? How do they look like? How do they reproduce? 1. Bacteria are: •Living things •Unicellular •Prokaryotic No nucleus : Eukaryotic cell 2 bacteria kingdoms: 1. Eubacteria – “true” bacteria. The most extended organism on Earth 2. Archaebacteria “old bacteria” -The oldest living things on Earth. -They live in extreme conditions: very hot, salty, acid locations -Eukaryotic cells evolved from Archaebacteria. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v= 2IGKv8kiMqY Bacteria can BE HARMFUL OR BENEFICIAL TO HUMANS Fact: In every cm2 from your skin you have an average of 100,000 bacteria. A small spoon that has been in contact with the floor contains more than 1,000,000,000 bacteria Eubacteria Streptococcus Estafilococcus Streptococcus can cause throat infection Lactobacillus For example, Lactobacillus helps us make yoghurt. Some bacteria are harmful for humans, while others are beneficial for us. Escherichia coli helps us digest food. Nevertheless, if we find it outside from the intestine tract, it can be harmful. What is bacteria? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pcXdfofLoj0 The identification of bacteria is based on their shape 1- Stick shape: bacillus 2- Sphere shape: coccus 3- Spiral shape: spirillum Antibiotics - They only kill bacteria they do not work to kill viruses -How do they work? -They prevent the formation of the bacteria cell wall -They break the cell membrane -They interfere in chemical reactions UNDERSTANDING BACTERIA http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UqZFiUWrZaE
