A commonality of yogurt, cheese, beer, and wine is the use of __________ in their production.

An island nation normally has a low background level of cholera. After an earthquake, sanitation is disrupted and cholera cases spike to high levels on the island but not in other areas of the world. The spike in cholera cases is an example of a(n)

A lab technician needs to identify an unknown bacterial species using mass spectrometry. What is being analyzed from a pure culture of this bacteria to determine its identity?

The figure shown below illustrates antigen-capture ELISA. An advantage of this technique over antibody-capture ELISA is that antigen-capture ELISA

  What will MOST likely result in an infectious disease becoming a pandemic instead of an epidemic?  

Type I pili are different from type IV pili in that type I pili

A clinical test displays high sensitivity but poor specificity. In this scenario, what is the MOST likely outcome when using this test on a patient sample?

A mosquito can transmit a viral pathogen into humans. What is the mode of transmission of the virus in this instance?

A segment of a bacterial genome is horizontally transferred to another bacterial cell, increasing the fitness of that bacteria when colonizing the host and causing disease. This foreign segment of DNA is BEST referred to as a

A system is known to have the following input and output relationship. (y output, f input) y’’’+6y’’+11y’+6y=f”+9f’+20f. a) (20 points) Create 2 Simulink models based on this system (Do not Use Transfer function block. Use Integrator (1/s), Gain block, and adder (or subtractor) for Transfer function.) (Direct Form and Parallel)  b) (10 points) Create a M-file based on this system. Use “lsim” function to find y(t) The input f(t) is te-0.5tu(t) for both parts.   Assume zero Initial Conditions   Create a word document. for Part a) Paste your simulink model, the output from the scope after you ran the simulation. for Part b) Paste your m-file (no image, just copy and paste of the text on the m-file so we can run the m-file) and the plot of the output y(t).   On the single word file!
