Week 14: Last week and Last lecture!!

Assalamualaikum.

Today lecture is at BMF, Bilik Mesyuarat Fakulti. BMF is the first placed we meet DR Wan. And first task She gave to us. Haha.

So, today we learned Biogeohemical Cycles and Aspects of Biotechnology in Microbial Ecology.

There are 5 cycles in Biogeochemical Cycles:
- Carbon cycle
- Nitrogen cycle
- Sulfur cycle
- Iron cycle
- Manganase cycle

Carbon Cycle

The final product:

Aerobic--> Accumulation of oxdized products
Anaerobic ---> Accumulation of reduced products

Nitrogen Cycle

3 major process:
-Nitrification
- Denitrification
- Nitrogen fixation

Sulfur Cycle

Processes:
- Sulfur Oxidation
- Sulfur Reduction
- Sulfate Reduction

Aspect of Biotechnology in Microbial Ecology

Function of microorganisms in mirobial ecology:
- As pollutants
- As cause of pollution
- As indicator of pollution
- May reduce pollution

Till then,
