INTRODUCTION TO

BIOTECHNOLOGY

Research on a specific bacteria and list down all the characteristics of that bacteria .Make a test or plan of how are you going to incorporate the specific trait of that bacteria to that fruit fly.EXPLAIN

Vibrio cholerae

is a "comma"

shaped Gram-

negative bacteria

with a single, polar

flagellum for

movement.

CHARACTERISTICS

a gram negative, non-spore forming, curved rod

It is very motile and has a single polar flagellum

can cause cholera, which is an acute, diarrheal illness that can result in severe dehydration and even death within a matter of hours.

These bacteria are not likely to spread directly from one person to another

gram-negative rods

That means they can survive either with or without oxygen.

It is also possible for Vibrio cholerae bacteria to live in the environment in brackish (saltwater) rivers and coastal waters.

VS.

Begin to produce their toxin, which is the main cause of the characteristic : watery diarrhea.

that the fly or a related arthropod may be a true host of V. cholerae in nature.
