Unit 11 Review: Viruses, Bacteria, and the Immune System
Learning Targets:
I can:
1. Compare and Contrast Eukaryotes, Prokaryotes, and Viruses, in terms of their genetic material, relative size, presence of organelles, presence of a nucleus, multicellularity, and reproduction.
2. Explain the parts of prokaryotes in terms of their function in transcription, translation, and binary fission.
3. Describe the evolution and ecology of viruses and bacteria in terms of symbiotic relationships, population growth, role in food webs, advantages and disadvantages of asexual reproduction, and selection from human drug applications.
4. Describe the three different immune responses in terms of what starts them (antigens) and their final action in the body (Raise temperature, produce antibodies, attack infected cells).
5. Explain how vaccines help prevent disease in terms of introduction of antigen, immune response, and production of memory cells with specific antibodies.
6. Describe allergies in terms of harmless antigens, an overactive immune response, and the production of histamine.
7. Describe the role of antibodies in terms of matching specific antigens, and acting as signal for destruction.
8. Explain the processes of immune cells including transport and protein synthesis.
9. Compare and Contrast the different method of viral infection (Lytic vs. Lysogenic) in terms of change to host DNA, how long the host cell lives, reproduction of new viruses.
