Question: The Microorganism Profile Paper requires the ability to apply scientific knowledge that you acquire both inside and outside the microbiology classroom. You will also be required to communicate your knowledge of microbiological concepts by written means. You will construct a comprehensive profile of a microorganism that you are assigned by the faculty using the guidance document below. This microorganism is a  pathogen that you may encounter in your nursing career. As you progress through the paper, you will be asked to provide written explanations of microbiological concepts in your own words. All written answers are expected to meet accepted standards for grammar, syntax, and punctuation, and the paper will be submitted in APA format. Proper microbiology terminology is also expected.

As you progress through this course, you will acquire information in a sequential, topic-specific manner. Each topic will include information that is relevant to this assignment. For example, the knowledge you gain from the lesson on bacterial cell morphology will be applied to the first paper topic, "Cell Morphology and Growth Requirements." Your answers are expected to include information from sources that go beyond the textbook or classroom. Examples include peer-reviewed journal articles, interviews with clinicians who deal with microbes daily, personal experiences, and other reputable sources. You are expected to clearly understand the meaning of each topic before you construct your answer. For example, you are expected to know the meaning of "epidemiology" and to understand the topics that are connected to it. Don't forget to read and understand the rubric before you start. Refer to it often: it will help guide you through the process.
