When my environment dries out, i am capable of losing all the water from my body and surviving in this dormant state for many years in the chance that water may someday return. This unique truck I preform is called... 1.) Autohydro resuscitation  2.) Torpor 3.) Dessication 4.) Bioaqueous estivation  5.) Anhydrobiosis

The pathogenic strain of the bacterium E. coli (0157:H7) has been shown to be responsible for lethal outbreaks of food poisoning. Bacteria on contaminated food enters the stomach and travels to the large intestine where it causes severe diarrhea. If it enters the bloodstream it causes hemolytic uremic syndrome which results in severe anemia, kidney failure, and in some cases death. The stomach is an extremely acidic environment and to survive the bacteria have a series of enzymes that they produce to protect themselves. This acid stress response is mediated primarily through the gad operon. What is an operon? O a. A series of genes controlled by the same operator O b. A series of genes on the same MRNA molecule O C. A series of genes that all have the same function O d. A series of genes all regulated by the same repressor

Coliforms are commonly used as an indicator of drinking water quality. As we discussed, in March and April of 1993 there was a major outbreak of gastrointestinal illness in Milwaukee, Wisconsin caused by contamination in the public drinking water supply.  As summarized by MacKenzie et al.1, “throughout the period from February to April 1993, samples of treated water from both (water treatment) plants were negative for coliforms and were within the limits set by the Wisconsin Department of Natural Resources for water quality.”  Why, in this case, did coliforms remain at acceptable levels despite water contamination that resulted in over 400,000 cases of gastrointestinal illness?
