Third Lecture: 19/9/14

This was my third lecture.

Pening Kepala @.@
A lot of things need to rush due to the big project~~

These were all the things that I had learnt in my third lecture:
1) Magnetosomes are intracellular organelles in magnetotactic bacteria that allow them to sense magnetic field.
2) Magnetosomes contain 15 to 20 magnetic crystal that help them to sense magnetic field like a compass.
3) Magnetotaxis is the ability to sense a magnetic field. These ability help them in reaching regions of optimal oxygen concentration because they survive in environment with limited oxygen.
4) Blood is the part of our body which normally couldn't find microorganisms.
5) Colum and intestines are parts of our body which contain most of mmicroorganisms.
6) Saccharomyces cerevisae is the common yeast used to make bread.
7) Bacteria with no flagella move by gliding.
8) Halophiles are organisms that live in environment with high salt concentration.
9) Thermoacidophiles are organisms that live in environment with high temperature and acidity.
10) Methanogen are microorganisms that produce methane as matabolic product.
11) Cyanobacteria is a phylum of bacteria that obtain energy through photosynthesis.
12) Plankton is a kind of algae which can be the food sources of bacteria.
13) Giardia lambia is a kind of protozoa which may causes diarrhea if exists in human stomach.
14) Saprophytes are organisms which obtain nutrients from dead organic matter.
15) E.coli are divided into 5 groups. E.coli 0157:H7 can make people sick.
16) Volvox, is a chlorophyte, green alga which exists as grand spherical colony.
