Microbiome Review

What can we understand from this pie graph?

• Both the mice with the normal gut and low-bacteria gut are likely to get sick.

• Mice with the normal gut are less likely to get sick because there is less room for the bacteria to grow.

• Mice with the low-bacteria gut are less likely to get sick because there is a lot of space.

• Both the mice with the normal gut and low-bacteria gut are not likely to get sick.

• False

Why did the group of mice with spaces and gaps in their microbiome get sicker than the other group?

• Spaces in a microbiome allow bad bacteria like Salmonella or C.diff to grow and expand.

• They were sick mice when we started the experiment.

• They were supposed to get sick from Salmonella.

• Good bacteria weren't able to save them from C.diff.

What is one thing that good bacteria in a healthy and full microbiome do?

• Good bacteria keep people warm like coat because they cover a person all over.

• Good bacteria feed people antibiotics like C.diff and Salmonella.

• Like a shield, good bacteria protect people from bad bacteria because the good bacteria cover every space of a humans body.

Scientific argumentation is...

• the way that scientists communicate, evaluate, and revise their explanations

• arguing without evidence or reasoning

• a type of study

Which is an example of normal and good bacteria in a human microbiome?

• C.jejuni

• C.diff infection

• L.reuteri

• Salmonella

In order to have a scientific argument you must have a:

• Make a claim and do an experiment

• Claim, use evidence, and provide reasoning

• Provide evidence from a bunch of sorces

What bacteria did our patient get infected with after the antibiotics treatment?

• L. reuteri

• Space

• C. Jejuni

• C. Difficle
