2 Demonstrate knowledge of how genetics and biochemistry are used to elucidate the organization and function of microorganisms.
3 Use classical, molecular, and genomic methods to identify microorganisms isolated from natural environments.
4 Explain and be able to use good microbiological practices in a laboratory setting.
5 Evaluate how microorganisms interact with animals, plants, other microbes, and the environment in beneficial, neutral, or detrimental ways.
