slides- Functional Anatomy of Prokaryotic & Eukaryotic Cells

Live cultures of Bacillus thuringiensis (Dipel) and B. subtilis (Kodiak) are sold as pesticides. What bacterial structures make it possible to package and sell this bacteria? For what purpose is each product used?

Students will individually examine the structures, chemistry and functions of capsules, endospores, sporulation and endospore germination over a period of one week. The readings for Week 1 through 3 and discussion activities in the same weeks are beneficial in preparing to complete this assignment.

Learners will synthesize their findings in a summary presentation of at least 10 slides that will be shared with their peers by the specified due date, when they will then compare and contrast the feedback from their research in this discussion forum. Learners will be evaluated against the criteria outlined in the assignment and discussion forum rubric.
