The Problem of Auto-Correlation in Parasitology Cherice Moore ITT Technical Institute GE257 12/17/2014 Parasitology is a branch of biology that deals with the study of parasites, their hosts, and the relationship between them. Parasitologists try to get an understanding of the many various factors that regulate the outcome of infections, and how these variables can actually adjust to a different intervention or some other type of external variation. Since infections are not simple, and have

Task 1 A. Compare your observations from the four activities of the fresh wet mount, direct staining using crystal violet, and indirect staining using both Congo Red and crystal violet. When the wet preparation of slides containing Saccharomyces cerevisiae (yeast cells) was observed under x10 and x 40 magnification, yeast cells appeared as independent oval shaped structures. In the wet mount, all the cells had the same appearance and their borders were not clearly distinct. It was
