Classification of Bacteria

Take charge of your learning with interactive, exploratory exercises. Study the classification of bacteria on your device and change the way you learn science.

In a virtual laboratory, you’ll need to look closely at various bacterial samples to differentiate them based on their observable characteristics. After correctly identifying the samples, you’ll learn the importance of classifying bacteria.

• Classify bacteria into groups based on their shape, cell walls, and growth requirements.
• Identify bacteria by the amount of oxygen and type of nutrition they need.
• Distinguish between four different common bacterial shapes.
• Learn how to examine Gram-stained bacteria.
• Record your observations as you perform tests in a laboratory.
• Understand that the classification of bacteria allows the correct usage of antibiotics.

App features:
• Peer closely at bacteria under a microscope in an interactive, virtual environment.
• Make observations and receive helpful feedback.
• Access reference notes for step-by-step support.
• Demonstrate what you learn by taking quizzes.
