Relevant videos:
MicrobiologyA bit too in depth and extra random information, but good if you want to get an overview of what microbiology is
|
Bacteria - structureGreat for the anatomy and structure of a bacterial cell. Rememeber you have to link the structure to its life process for the internal
|
Bacteria - Life processesThis video doesn't touch on all of the effects of the environment on bacteria but if does elaborate most life processes
|
Bacteria - AntibioticsThis looks rather nicely at the effects that antibiotics have on bacterial cells.
|
Bacteria - ResistanceThis video touched on the uses of antibiotics but more importantly how they resist antibiotics
|
VirusThis video touches on everything about virus'. How do you think vaccines work?

Revision:
NWhen you are looking at some of these websites, remember that the information is for an EXTERNAL microbes assessment - a lot more detail and information is required for the external (such as the information about yeast, fungi etc)
Just take what you need from these websites and don’t stress if there are things you don’t understand - either write a question on the collaboration space, email me or ask in class
