Welcome to our
Microbiology Lecture​

During our Monday evening class, we completed Chapter 7 and then started our exploration of Chapter 9. The subpages for these chapters are posted below. Since we are a bit ahead of schedule, we will not be holding a Wednesday evening virtual class this week. Please take this time to work on your Pearson exercises or continue working on your your study sheet using the review questions on the
Chapters 7 and 9 subpages.  

Please be mindful of the due dates for your
Pearson Mastering Microbiology homework assignments.
Section 3's chapter 7 and chapter 9 assignments are available
​and ready for you to complete.
