Class notes BIOS 242 MICROBIOLOGY (BIO242)

BIOS 255 Midterm Review: This is not meant to cover every possible item on the test, but rather to highlight the main topic areas of the exam. You are responsible for any anatomical term on the term list as well any physiology assigned in the reading unless told specifically it was not testable. Example questions are not meant to show you exactly what is on the exam, rather they are supposed to give you an idea of how questions will be asked. I have answered one question below to provide an example of the level of detail you should go into when preparing your own review. *Exercises 27 and 28 are good lab sections to review.* CHAPTER 19 – BLOOD – Review basic function of CV system 1.
