small weird creatures

 There are tons and tons of weird creatures living in us they are known as bacteria and germs.

This week I have been learning about bacteria and germs.

Here is some work I did:

After you have read the book about ‘Germs Up Close’.  Answer the following questions below.

GERMS
Where can germs live?	Germs can live anywhere.
There are two processes to take to              see germs. Describe the process              they use to see germs.	By microscopes and dye.
What are the 4 types of germs  that cause illness?	STAPHYLOCOCCUS, STREPTOCOCCUS,  GIARDIA, PLASMODIUM
How large is a bacteria?	31,800
Describe the different shapes of a bacteria.	Round, hotdog-shaped, wormlike and squiggly
Explain what good bacteria do.	They destroy bad bacteria.
Three types of bacteria are identified.  Describe each type by presenting it on  one DLO (digital learning object) - Google Docs, Google Slides, Google Drawing,  Screencastify or another DLO that you haven’t used before.   Insert the link to your DLO to this question.

PROTOZOA
Where is Protozoa likely to be found?	Dirty water
How large are Protozoa?	They are larger than bacteria.
Who do Protozoa act like?	Most of them are harmless.
4.What do they mean by stating  that  Protozoa are like parasites?	They need to live in or outside a plant or an animal or a human.
Protozoa come in different shapes and  shapes and sizes.  Explain more about  their features.	Some of them are parasites and they can change their bodies into different configs.
Two types of Protozoa are identified.  Describe each type by presenting it on  one DLO (digital learning object) - Google Docs, Google Slides,  Google Drawing, Screencastify or another DLO that you haven’t used before.  Insert the link to your DLO to this question.

FUNGI
What locations on your body can you fungus grow?
Where can the fungi be found?	On your skin and toes.
TRUE or FALSE? Fungi are  germs that make us sick  and other types that help our bodies keep bad germs off?	false
Two types of fungi have been identified.  Describe each type by presenting  it on one DLO (digital learning object) - Google Docs, Google Slides, Google  Drawing, Screencastify or another DLO that you haven’t used before.   Insert the link to your DLO to this question.

VIRUSES
Why do scientists consider viruses  weird?	Because they don't have cells.
Describe a virus.	They are normally round and have little antler like things.
3 types of viruses have been identified. Describe each type by presenting it on one DLO (digital learning object) - Google Docs, Google Slides, Google Drawing,  Screencastify or another DLO that you haven’t used before.   Insert the link to your DLO to this question.
Two types of fungi have been identified.  Describe each type by presenting it on one DLO (digital learning object) - Google Docs, Google Slides, Google  Drawing, Screenca. Insert the link to your DLO to this question.

GERMS
How do we keep germs far away?	By not sneezing and washing your hands and drinking clean water.
How can we fight germs when they get inside of us?	The immune system does most of the work.
What are the army cells called in  our bodies that fight off germs?	White blood cells.
What role/jobs do these army cells have when fighting off different germs?	Some eat germs and some poke holes in them.
Use the information that you have just read about keeping germs far away and CREATE a DLO  Google Docs Google Slides Google Drawing Screencastify or  another DLO To present a poster about the different ways we can protect ourselves from germs. Click on: TYPES OF TEXT POSTERS AND LEAFLETS Powerpoint - Read through the slides carefully. This  will give you guidelines when creating your poster.

MEET THE GERMS!

Your writing for this week is a variety of writing tools that you will be using related to our learning focus: Meet The Germs!

The first activity you did with the whole class was brainstorming and listing all the diseases that you would have heard about.   This has started your journey to:  ‘Meet The Germs’

B. List DISEASES I HAVE HEARD OF ...

Mrs. Ulugia-Pua: HIV, Polio, Chicken Pox, HIV, AIDS, Black Plague,

Avah: Covid 19,Cancer,Chicken pox,

Valentino-The Plague,hepatitis b, hepatitis a, hepatitis c, Delta variant, Dephea,

Rivith - Black death, spanish flu, covid 19, malaria, cholera, covid tongue, covid toe, SARS, measles, polio

Matua August- Cancer, Measles,

Leipua- delta variant, Kidney disease, Influenza

Healy - Heart disease, Cancer, Diabetes, Covid 19,

Fatafehi - Measles,

Edyn - Ebola Virus , Heart disease , CANCER , Strep throat ,Ischemic heart disease ,       Covid - 19 : )

B. Write the definitions of each term in the box.  Click on the image to take you to the dictionary link.

Bacteria	They are microscopic organisms that play a role inside living things.
Genetic material	It is our DNA also known as RNA
Microorganism	They are small things that can not be seen by human eyes.
Virion	It is a whole virus particle.
Virology	the scientific study of viruses and of the diseases they cause.
Virus	a tiny organism that can reproduce only in living cells.

C. Write in this chart what you have learned about the differences between viruses and bacteria.

T CHART Difference between VIRUSES and BACTERIA
Virus	Bacteria

D. Watch the two videos about viruses.

A Virus Attacks a Cell!
Watch this video. In the text box beside the video, record 5 things you learned from watching the video.
Click on the image to take you to the video link.	1. They use their nucleus to open the lung cells. 2. They trick the lung cells to open up. 3. When the cell opens the virus sinks into the cell. 4. They live in human lungs. 5. They infect cells.
From your list of 5, what is the most interesting piece of information you have learned? 3. When the cell opens the virus sinks into the cell.

HOW DO VIRUSES REPRODUCE?
Watch this video. In the text box beside the video, record 5 things you learned from watching the video.
Click on the image to take you to the video link.	They can make copies of themselves. They have their own genetic code. They can’t make their own protein. Cells are like little factories. They take over cells.
From your list of 5, what is the most interesting piece of information you have learned? 2.    They have their own genetic code.

D. DIAGRAM OF A BACTERIUM (BACTERIA)  Look at the diagram of a bacterium (bacteria) in comparison to a virus.

DIAGRAM OF A BACTERIUM

Having watched the two videos about a virus, and looking at the diagram of a bacteria.  What did you notice is the difference between a virus and a bacteria? Viruses don't have plasmid DNA and ribosomes.

E. TRUE OR FALSE?   Indicate which of the following statements are true or false.  Use the yellow highlighter on your toolbar to highlight T or F.

a. All viruses have the same shape. T F b. Viruses can be bigger than bacteria. T F c. Viruses reproduce by taking over cells. T F d. All viruses cause disease. T F e. All viruses are comprised of protein molecules. T F

F. LIFE CYCLE OF A VIRUS Order the events in the life-cycle of a virus by writing the letters from the list into the correct box.

d. Virus particle assembles c. Virus particle attaches to host cell e. Genetic material is inserted b. The cell makes copies of viral proteins a. The new virus is released a. The new virus is released b. The cell makes copies of viral proteins c. Virus particle attaches to host cell d. Virus particle assembles e. Genetic material is inserted

G. CLASSIFYING THE DISEASES Classify the diseases according to whether they are caused by a virus or bacteria.   Copy the tick ✔

DISEASE VIRUS BACTERIA Influenza ✔ Common cold ✔ Zika ✔ Pertussis ✔ Smallpox ✔ Hepatitis B ✔ Tetanus ✔ Measles ✔ Mumps ✔
