Bacteria Top Ten List!
Read the article I gave you on bacteria. In your blog you are to simply create a top ten list stating why bacteria aren't always bad guys! This should be funny while stating facts (so I know you read the article). David Letterman will be voting on the winner. Due Monday at midnight.

Bacteria Aren’t Always Bad
1. OCCUPIED – occupy niches that pathogens would otherwise
2. SeaWorld – contribute to the total biomass in marine environment (water = 70% of Earth’s surface)
3. Down Under – live in soil to help plants
4. We’re Takin’ Over! – after antibiotics clear intestinal flora during bacterial infection, healthy bacteria take over
5. Gut-wrenching – help balance the intestinal flora
6. VitaCraves – produce vitamins for the body
7. Party, and party, and party! – millions of bacteria are present in mouth, nose, and skin to assist every day functions
8. Food Fight – help with food digestion
9. Got Milk? – bacteria ferments milk to make milk-based products such as yogurt
10. Get Your Hot Dogs Here! – required for food preparation in items like sausage and sauerkraut
1. They’re icky?! You should get your facts straight, hun; you’d be dead and icky too if it weren’t for bacteria.
2. Like food? You should get into the habit of loving bacteria.
3. You know, the bacterium on that slide could potentially be one of your parents. Indirectly. Very old. Maybe?
4. A majority of bacteria are comparable to the annoying Chihuahua in your neighbor’s yard.
5. The bacteria that do cause you harm probably don’t even like you; I’m sure they’d rather infect your ex… he’s pretty cold.
6. Our skin’s toxic to other bacteria. Thank salt and bacteria.
7. She likes your odor. I’m sure the bacteria are to blame. …You should probably clean up now; you stink.
8. If you’re ever infected, don’t breathe. The bacteria may die off before you pass out. If they’re anaerobic, you better start hyperventilating.
9. Half the time you take antibiotics, the side effects are worse than what you’re trying to cure. They irritate you bacteria, and often times one will get diarrhea. You might as well have strep throat or something for a little while.
10. Wait, don’t touch that yogurt! It’s “hot.” Never mind, it’s the good “hot.”
P.S. I apologize. This top ten list probably isn’t that funny.
1. As i walked through the woods i cowered at the sight of those tall ferocious things known as trees, they have been known to KILL people but not on purpose. Bacteria are like these trees, they usually won't harm us and most the time when they do they don't mean too.
2. "AHHHH" the little bacteria tried to escape us but it was too late, the lack of oxygen in our cells killed him.
3. "Yuck" the bacteria shouted to the human, "your way too salty."
4. "You thought your house was cramped, i share mine with millions of brothers and sisters," said the beneficail bacteria living within me.
5. Good luck germaphobes, without bacteria we all die.
6. "Yum yogurt, wait yogurt is bacteria!!!!"
7. "Burrrr, your to cold to live in, I need a different host"
8. "INTRUDER, INTRUDER, THIS IS NOT A DRILL, INTRUDER," the B-Team jumps into action and drives the intruders away.
9. Where would I live if there were no bacteria, sharks need fish, fish need plankton, etc... without bacteria the cycle would stop.
10. Forget Valentines Day, without bacteria we would have no flowers.
1.Just relax some dirt won’t hurt you.
2.Harmless Helpers- no matter how clean you are, you are going to have bacteria
3.Dumb Blondes- humans have less oxygen concentration, so some bacteria can’t live in humans
4.You’re not normal- some bacteria can’t live on own bodies because we aren’t their natural environment
5.You’re too HOTT!- bacteria can’t live in us because our body temperature is too high or too low
6.No I DON’T need soap- no need to wash your hands, your body will fight off the bacteria
7.Love/Hate Relationship- we hate bacteria but we love it because it breaks down our food
8.Please don’t eat me alive- we are born sterile, and are bombarded with bacteria as soon as we come out of the womb
9.El Natural- keeping natural flora in the body will help us avoid diarrhea
10.Eat more Yogurt?- the bacteria in yogurt will help the digestive system. What if you don’t like yogurt…..there is always cheese!
