Re: Microbe Mission B/C
does anyone know anything about estuary associated syndrome?
specifically, the size, classification, shape, symptoms, treatment, and prevention?
thanks! i've been searching but i cant find anything on google and wikipedia has failed me

cause: neurotoxins from Pfiesteria (dinoflagellate)doctor wrote:does anyone know anything about estuary associated syndrome?

thanks! i've been searching but i cant find anything on google and wikipedia has failed me
symptoms: amnesia, vision loss, and some other things I can't remember
treatment: Cholestyramine
prevention: avoid estuaries, especially when there are dinoflagellate algal blooms
I'm not sure what you mean by size, classification, and shape...
The main reason I know this is because of ocean bowl.

this is the only disease i dont have yet
for size i mean the width/diameter of the microbe in um or nm
classification is what type of microbe
and shape is what the microbe looks like (sperical, w/ spikes, icosahedral etc)
but thanks anyways!

I think you can get the size, classification, and shape yourself, since I already told you it's Pfiesteria.

Re: Microbe Mission B/C
I've done this event twice, and I can never seem to figure out by the term "environment" in the rules:
Differences (e.g., size, environment, structure, prokaryotic vs. eukaryotic, etc) among prions, viruses, bacteria, Archaea, fungi, and algal and animal like protists.
It's always caused me trouble on the test, too!
Are they asking for the kind of environment the microbe needs to survive?
Or the role the microbe plays in the environment?
Thanks!

Re: Microbe Mission B/C
I think it refers to the environment in which the microbes exist (or can survive). The fact that some archaea are extremophiles would be one of the classic examples.

Re: Microbe Mission B/C
For all those who took the PA states B division microbe test, did anyone have time issues with it? By the end of the test I had to rush to finish all the knowledge base questions, and my partner had difficulty finishing the microscope stuff.

Re: Microbe Mission B/C
Yeah, that was a long test. We got to all the sections because we split it up, but we left a few black and I was definitely rushing at the end. My partner did the microscopy stuff and the diseases, and I did most of the other questions. I think the best strategy was just to complete as much as possible.dvd wrote:For all those who took the PA states B division microbe test, did anyone have time issues with it?

Re: Microbe Mission B/C
Anyone experience really heavy competition for Microbe?
I got 1 question wrong out of a test of 60 something, and placed 6th o.O
I think the people above me probably milked the tie breaker more than I did.

Re: Microbe Mission B/C
That doesn't necessarily mean that there was really heavy competition. Ususally that means that the test was so easy that everyone did well and that a very small number of points could make a big difference in the placings.fanjiatian wrote:Anyone experience really heavy competition for Microbe?
