1- Microbe Survival Chart

 

🔥 Quick Key Points

• C, H, O, N = main building blocks of macromolecules (proteins, lipids, carbs, nucleic acids).

• N and O are highly electronegative → they strongly pull electrons when forming bonds.

• Phosphorus (P) is important for DNA and energy (ATP).

✏️ Easy Memory Trick:

→ CHON = Carbon, Hydrogen, Oxygen, Nitrogen = life’s basic ingredients!
→ CaP = Calcium and Phosphorus = strong bones!

🎯 Quick Memory Trick:

"Cows Have Outstanding New Cute Pets, Silly Snakes Chase Mice."

Each first letter reminds you of an important element:

Word	Element	Symbol
Cows	Carbon	C
Have	Hydrogen	H
Outstanding	Oxygen	O
New	Nitrogen	N
Cute	Calcium	Ca
Pets	Phosphorus	P
Silly	Sulfur	S
Snakes	Sodium	Na
Chase	Chlorine	Cl
Mice	Magnesium	Mg

---

✅ Now you can quickly remember:

• C, H, O, N = life molecules

• Ca, P = bones and teeth

• S, Na, Cl, Mg = body functions like nerves and fluids.

This slide shows important Big Questions about microbes and macromolecules.

Here’s a simple breakdown to help you:

---

🌟 Big Questions and Simple Answers

---

1. How do microbes help host digestion?

• Microbes in our gut (like bacteria) break down food we cannot digest by ourselves.

• They help digest fiber, starches, and other complex molecules.

• They also produce vitamins (like Vitamin K and B12) for us!

---

2. How do microbes survive extreme heat?

• Special microbes called thermophiles can live in very hot places (like hot springs).

• Their proteins and membranes are specially designed not to fall apart in heat.

---

3. How do microbes survive extremely acidic environments?

• Special microbes called acidophiles can live in very acidic places (like acid mines or the human stomach).

• They have strong cell membranes and enzymes that still work in acid.

---

📝 Extra Tip:

• Macromolecules = Big molecules like proteins, DNA, carbohydrates, and lipids → they are the building blocks of all cells.

• Cells are the building blocks of organisms (like humans!).

Would you also like me to make a simple mini-chart showing thermophiles vs acidophiles vs normal bacteria? 🔥⚡ It could help even more!

🌟 Microbe Survival Chart

Type of Microbe	What They Love	Where They Live	Special Features
Thermophiles	Extreme heat (hot temperatures)	Hot springs, volcanic vents	Heat-stable proteins and membranes
Acidophiles	Extreme acid (low pH)	Acidic mines, stomach acid	Acid-stable membranes and enzymes
Normal Bacteria	Normal temperature and pH	Human body, soil, water	Regular enzymes that need moderate conditions

---

📝 Quick Key:

• Thermo = Heat

• Acido = Acid

• Normal = Mild, everyday environments
