The HSC Biology Podcast

Module 7: Physical and Chemical Changes, Procedures for Limiting Disease, Antiviral and Antibiotics

The HSC Biology Podcast

Show Notes

Analyse responses to the presence of pathogens by assessing the physical and chemical changes that occur in the host animal's cells and tissues Investigate and analyse the wide range of interrelated factors involved in limiting local, regional and global spread of a named infectious disease

Investigate procedures that can be employed to prevent the spread of disease, including but not limited to: hygiene practices Quarantine vaccination, including passive and active immunity public health campaigns use of pesticides genetic engineering Investigate and assess the effectiveness of pharmaceuticals as treatment strategies for the control of infectious disease, for example: Antivirals antibiotics Investigate and evaluate environmental management and quarantine methods used to control an epidemic or pandemic

analyse patterns of non-infectious diseases in populations, including their incidence and prevalence, including but not limited to: – nutritional diseases – diseases caused by environmental exposure Investigate the treatment/management, and possible future directions for further research, of a non-infectious disease using an example from one of the non-infectious diseases categories listed above Evaluate the method used in an example of an epidemiological study Thanks to STEM Reactor for sponsoring this podcast.
