Biology Is Life !

wat blog. i dont see a blog mr. J.
 

hi mRNA
it has not been posted yet
someone in period 1 is posting it this week... it should be here by 5PM.

The biological factor that is causing the resistance in the tundra. LINK this site talks about how resilient that the bacteria is. Also, it talks about how the large increase in use of them does not help the situation. If this happens from a humans perspective more people will be suseptable to dieing and getting very sick without the effectiveness of antibiotices.
 

the biological factor that is causing the resistance is the antibiotic.Click Here this website talks about the resistance of antibiotics is a growing threat.it is also caused by the increase of use of antibiotics. They also said that most of this bacteria comes from hospitals.Humans are effected my this because we use alot of antibiotics.
 

i have no idea at all what is causing this. im no professional. id probably say some mutation of some sort happened along the way.

Resistance This site talks about what antibiotics are and what antibiotic resistance it. It tells you when and when to use antibiotics also. Another thing it talks about is how to reduce the risk of antibiotic resistance.

I think that scientists would be affect cause they'd be pressured into trying to find ways to treat all these dieases so people don't die!
 

that is quite a good guess ms pam... that mutation allows the bacteria to live, when all the others die. quite a handy little mutation, don't ya think!

sounds a bit like a stephen king novel... The Stand
. everyone dies except a few...

1.This resistance is caused by natural selection and random mutations.
2.It talks about the increasing number of antibiotic resistant drugs due to the widespread use of antibiotics. According to their statistics, 2 million get it at a hospial each year. About 90,000 people die from them each year.

3.Humans would get sick for longer periods of time, there would be more deaths and the amount of suffering would increase.
 

I think that a bacteria could have changed in some way in the birds, making it antibiotic resistant. Just Like in humans--if we don't finish out antibiotics, over time our sickness may just become stronger or change slightly every time, making it more difficult to treat.


Click Here this website talks about how diseases are hcanging throughout history. It shows a diagram of how Antibiotic Restistance takes place, and what might be done to help solve this rising issue. Humans are effected by this the most, because humans are the ones becoming antibiotic- resistant.
 

I think that perhaps the bacteria were surviving by who was best suited to the environment, as some developed this resistance. The resistance grew as bacteria reproduced and now it is fully existent in that bacteria..perhaps.

This site tells about how resistance is rising in some strains of diseases. Like I said, a survival of the fittest type of idea occurred as resistant bacteria would survive if they adapted. This site also shows some steps that can be taken to solve the problem of resistances to antibiotics in certain bacteria.
The problem will have biggest effect on humans altogether, as resistance could cause issues with new vaccines and many people could die. If it becomes a worldly problem, even things such as economy and politics could suffer from resistance to cures from bacteria due to the issues in deaths it may cause.
 

that was obi in the last comment
just thought id use the other part of my name

;D (<--- supposed to be winking)

bye
 

Well i am not sure if im right, but im guessing that the bird must have picked up a bacteria along the way since Southeast Asia already had antibiotic resistance in it.

This site talks about how antibiotic resistance happens and different methods tried to treat these illnesses. It also give some history behind these illnesses such as when they spread rapidly, the first drug to try and cure on, and the firs illness. It is a relatively simple version but does get the point across. Health care costs might rise due to having to treat more patients in hospitals as those are probably the only chance at living for some illnesses. Health care might also become harder to find because so many more people would need it due to no immunity against these diseases, and no regular antibiotics that work.
 

I think the biological factor that is causing this resistance is the bacteria. Resistance This website is saying that sometimes, people become resistant to antibiotics for many reasons. They say that sometimes it is caused by drug companies who are focusing more on viral infections than coming up with new ideas for old antibiotics. They also say that antibiotic resistance could be from an overuse of that specific antibiotic. If health care became effected by the antibiotic resistance, many people would not be able to be cured from things they previously were able to be cured from.
 

1. I think it is some type of bacteria that is causing this resistance...maybe the bird picked it up along the way????

2.my site!!!!! this link talks about how antibiotic resistance came about and what the effects are of it. It states that when resistant bacteria cause infection, the choice of antibiotic that can be used to treat that infection is reduced. It also talks about how antibiotic resistance is a world-wide problem but it is worse in some parts of the world than others.

3. i think humans can be effected by this because not only do we use antibiotics, but some of our sicknesses highly depend on them...so that increases the risk of us getting worse...
 

I think the biological factor is the enviroment.My site begins by telling you some examples of diseases that over time have become immune to antibiotics. it also says that 70% of all bacteria that cause infections in hospitals have been immune to at least one type of drug used on it. My site also gives a brief history of anitbiotics and a brief history on how organisms have become immune to antibiotics.. If this happenes to humans, we would all be in trouble, because if humans become resistant to antibiotics and new medications havent been created yet, people could die.
 

yo0o carnivore, whoever you are...you copied my site! not cool man.

Well the scientists hypothesize that the immigrating birds passed through regions in Southeast Asia where there is a great deal of antibiotic pressure. This here website discusses what an antibiotic is and what resistance is. An antibiotic is a chemical that inactivates or damages bacteria. And resistance is the ability of an organism to survive in the presence of lethal chemicals. More importantly it talks about the effects of antibiotic resistance. They say the choice of antibiotic that can be used to treat the infection is reduced, when a resistant bacteria causes infection. This website also talk about how antibiotic resistance is a growing problem. However they assure that bacteria have always been able to develop ways to protect themselves from antibiotics. This website also talks about how humans and animals sometimes use the same antibiotics. However they say that even though the composition is the same for both antibiotics, there is a lack of evidence that human use of these is effective the same way in animals. The increase in antibiotic resistant bacteria is caused by the actions of us humans. For example, most of it is found in hospitals where patients are extremely ill. Research suggests that the bacteria which causes the infections in hospitals is taken from within the hospital environment.

The biological factor that is causing this resistance is natural selection. The bacteria that are most readily able to survive (from antibiotics) live on, reproducing, and creating more of the same resistant bacteria. In order for this to occur, for a mutation in the genes must occur.

Here is my linkthat discusses the resistance of antibiotics. This article discusses the facts that in the last decade, strings of bacteria have been becomign more resistant to antibiotics. It tells of the negative outcome of the factor. It discusses hwo these new bacteria will make diseases more expensive and harder to cure, and how it will make common infections among children and adults dangerous and unable to be treated.

In humans, anitbiotic bacteria would have devestating effects. They would make illnesses much more expensive and difficult to treat. In some cases, it might have deadly effects because it would make some illnesses impossible to cure.
 

The biological factor in this is mutation?!?!
my link This site talks about how there was an action plan to help this situation but ended up not being effective enough. It also mentions that the antibiotic resistance could of started when farmers put small doses of antibiotics in the livestocks food to help the animals grow faster. The site also lists all the actions governments all around the world have taken to help prevent this in the future. Humans are effected by this because we are exposed to it everyday with no protection from bacteria.
Btw srry its late blame Nina :D jking
 

Ninja here!

Now I'm taking a complete shot in the dark here. I would have to say the biological factor is that the antibiotics in southeast Asia were already causing the bacteria to mutate into resistant strains. When the birds picked them up, they continued to mutate.

My site
This site is an overview of antibiotic-resistant bacteria. It explains the current problem of the resistant strains and possible solutions to the problem. It also throws some TB facts in there as well.

Well antibiotic-resistant bacteria would most likely impact health care. With the increase of bacteria, different antibiotics will have to be manufactured to combat the bacteria. This is just going in a circle though.

The biological factor that is causing this resistance is the bacteria.
Click Here This site starts to talk about how penicillin was a wonder drug until bacteria began to appear resist it. More and more bacteria began to resist it. So they concluded that antibiotic resistance spreads fast. The resistance of the antibiotic is based on the theory of evolution.

I think that humans eill be greatly affected in the case of an increase in bacteria resistance because we use antibiotics as a daily part of life to cure terrible sicknesses. Without being able to cure these illnesses life on planet earth would not be same.
 

I think that mutations are what is causing the resistance.

This site explains how antibiotic resistance happens It also discusses how fast it can occur and how dangerous it is. It also explains how antibiotic resistance is an outcome of evolution.


Antiobiotic resistance would be a huge problem for humans because if the antibiotics that are used when they are sick dont work, then the number of deaths would increase, or they would just remain ill.
 

Hey JOhnson Sorry this is late. my internet has been down since last like wednesday so sorry
Ummm maybe the biological factor is mutation?!?!?! i really am not sure.
Here's my link!
This website gives some facts about Antibiotic Resistance. It says that about 70% of bacteria that causes infections is resistant to 1 of the normal antibiotics. It also gives examples of some of infections that are hard to cure. Humans will get sick more often of not fully get cured if these bacteria increase.
cya monday!!
 

it is caused by the antibiodic.It says the cause is evolution.The permanent resistance comes in two steps. Researchers are trying to prevent both these stages from ocurring.
humans will suffer emesly. Because a little thing that is curable with an antibodic could kill becasue of the resistance





VARSITY CHEERLEADING GOT GRAND CHAMPIONS AT COMPETITION YESTERDAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! =)
 

the biological factor that is causing the resistance is the agriculture
Click Here
this site says that Part of the problem is that bacteria and other microbes that cause infections are remarkably resilient and have developed several ways to resist antibiotics and other antimicrobial drugs. However, a larger part of the problem is due to our increasing use, and misuse, of existing antibiotics in human and veterinary medicine and in agriculture. It also says that some organisms are resistant to all approved antibiotics and can only be treated with experimental and potentially toxic drugs.If this happens from a humans perspective more people will be suseptable to dieing and getting very sick without the effectiveness of antibiotices.
 

good evening all.
you should be getting ready for the test tomorrow.
not doing last weeks blog.

The biological factor that is causing this resistance is the bacteria (I think). My site is http://whyfiles.org/038badbugs/. Sorry, have not figured out how to do the whole link thing yet. The format is different than usual on my computer. Anyway, my site is about how antibotics are not working as well on some bacteria. It also touches on just how bad the overall problem is. It also has a linked site regarding Tuberculosis. If more antibiotic resistant bacteria come about, humans will be in trouble. THese bacteria may grow into something bigger and perhaps deadly if they can not be stopped. Scientists should definitely get on that.
 

The biological factor that is causing this resistance is adaptation.
Textbook Resource

This is a textbook resource describing the effects of bacterial resistance to antibiotics. It gives a history of antibiotics and shows how bacteria have continually adapted. Cool Fact: Almost 70 percent of bacteria being treated in the common hospital have become immune to one or more type of antibiotic.
This could definitely affect the health care market. As drugs become more ineffective, prices will rise to compensate for the experimentation for new drugs.
 

Resistant pathogens is a scary thought. It calls to mind the bird flu "epidemic." We need to put much more effort into medicine. Most are probably cureable by some means or another. We just need to discover that cure. The factor would have to be lucky mutations.
