Microlife Unit Description

By exploring how infectious diseases affect people, students study microbiology; cell size, structure, function, and permeability; and systems of classification. They learn how to use a microscope to gather data and they continue to build on their ability to conduct experiments. Through laboratory activities and simulations, students also explore the function of the immune system and the growth of antibiotic-resistant organisms. A research project on disease provides students with an opportunity to develop research skills.
