Cell Structure

Overview

For your Session Long Project, SLP, you will analyze currentscientific studies related to the important events such as theDeepwater Spill.

In Modules 1-5, you will work through the results of thisstudy:

Urakawa, H., Garcia, Juan C., Barreto, Patricia D., Molina,Gabriela A., Barreto, Jose C. (2012). A sensitive crude oilbioassay indicates that oil spills potentially induce a change ofmajor nitrifying prokaryotes from the Archaea to the Bacteria.Environmental Pollution. 164:42-45

For Module 1:

1. First read this article from Scientific American:
   Clean Up the Deepwater Horizon Oil Spill
2. Next, define in complete sentences using a paragraphformat:

• What is the difference between a prokaryotic and a eukaryoticcell?
• The following terms:

Archaea

Nitrifying bacteria

Ammonia-oxidizing bacteria

Gram-negative vs gram-positive bacteria

Hydrocarbon

Bioassay

Microtox bioassay

Crude oil

Biodegradation

1. Finally read:

SLP Assignment Expectations

The Session Long Project consists of an integrative projectemphasizing the personalized application of each module's concepts.For Modules 1�5, students are required to engage in an originalintegrative project reflecting their comprehensive knowledge of andability to apply the course materials. Each component of the SLPwill be graded on a modular basis.

Your essay is considered a scholarly work. You will be providedwith many scholarly references to begin each assignment. For anyadditional research you are required to do to complete yourassignment, please use scholarly references such as a peer reviewedjournal article or a government sponsored or university sponsoredwebsite. As you read through your sources, take notes from yoursources and then write your paper in your own words, describingwhat you have learned from your research.
