Disease+Assignment


 * Individually, or in pairs, research a disease from list
 * For those who prefer, you may present findings to class as powerpoint (point form). Otherwise, it'll be submitted to me as a report, in paragraph form. I will also accept point form if it is made to look like a good brochure.
 * Must cover:
 * causative agent (eg: life cycle, metabolism, size, shape)
 * symptoms (in gory detail)
 * How infection occurs (eg: was a vector or carrier involved)
 * Incubation period (how long from infection until symptoms occur)
 * Control methods (can it be cured, controlled, or prevented)
 * Any other important or interesting detail
 * Cite all sources, including ones for images. Use more than one source
 * Due Friday. Email submissions for the eco-friendly. Must be time-stamped before 8am Friday
