I got 8 out of 10. I nearly got one but I said origin instead of order for the taxonomic classification. Also I didn't know one. So I guess its a good start. I can't tell! Lol

Great job! Do you think that A&P 1 helped prepare you for microbiology?
Yes and no. The time and energy that it took to study A&P was what made microbiology different. I don't think microbiology actually relates to A&P but it is much easier than A&P.
I didn't think so, but what do you think Dezi919? I think it is good to have a little bit of background with Chemistry. That's what we started out with and many people felt overwhelmed because they had never saw Chemistry before, as it isn't a pre req for our Micro class.
Very true. I was going to say that the Chemistry chapter we went over in A&P lecture helped me a lot. So a background of Chemistry and the microscope will help. I got acquainted with the microscope in A&P lab.

At my school, Chem is a prereq for A&P I, and A&P II is a prereq for Micro. So far in micro, I don't think the A&P is needed first. I can somewhat understand the Chem requirement for A&P, though not really, as the Chem in A&P is extremely basic.

The hardest part of microbiology for me was calibrating the microscopes... I almost dropped the class because it was so difficult for me. Other then that pretty straight forward class.
