Vocabulary Warning
There is a lot of vocabulary in the next two chapters
Much of the vocabulary is very specific in meaning and descriptive
These terms are extremely relevant to clinical microbiology and are part of the professional lexicon of the field.

Physical Parameters of Growth
Like all machines, microbes have operational conditions.
Though microbes dominate every niche on the planet, not all microbes are everywhere.
The physical conditions of growth are directly linked to physiology.

Chemical Requirements for Growth. What elements do we need to form the
major macromolecules?
Carbon Nitrogen Sulfur Phosphorus

What about Oxygen and Hydrogen? Both can be gotten from water. Oxygen is a special case
Aerobe – organism that requires oxygen (O2)
Anaerobe – organism that does not require oxygen (O2)

Carbon, Nitrogen, Sulfur, and Phosphorus Heterotroph vs. Autotroph Must be present in a usable form
Is this everything you need to make a cell?

Can we culture everything?
NO, many things remain unculturable in today’s micro lab and these are proving to be some of the most interesting organisms.

Caveats to Model
Small Initial Inoculum Media can be utilized Culture is not used to the media
Generation Time, how can you calculate it?
