Halodesulfovibrio marinisediminis

Halodesulfovibrio marinisediminis is a science topic covered in the lgStudy science library. This page brings together a partial reference excerpt, illustrations, worked examples, real-world applications and a short study plan, so you can understand Halodesulfovibrio marinisediminis rather than just read about it. In short: Halodesulfovibrio marinisediminis is a sulfate-reducing bacterium. Its cells are vibrio-shaped, Gram-negative, motile rods (0.7-1.0 micrometres wide and 1.0-3.5 micrometres long) with single polar flagella.

Key takeaways

Halodesulfovibrio marinisediminis belongs to science; place it in that map before memorising details.
Learn the definition first, then one example that makes the definition concrete.
Connect Halodesulfovibrio marinisediminis to a quantity you can measure, compute or draw — that is where exam questions come from.
Reproduce the core statement of Halodesulfovibrio marinisediminis from memory before moving on to harder problems.

Reference excerpt

Halodesulfovibrio marinisediminis is a sulfate-reducing bacterium. Its cells are vibrio-shaped, Gram-negative, motile rods (0.7-1.0 micrometres wide and 1.0-3.5 micrometres long) with single polar flagella. The type strain is C/L2(T) (=NBRC [corrected] 101113(T) =JCM 14577(T) =DSM 17456(T)). Originally described under Desulfovibrio, it was reassigned to Halodesulfovibrio by Cao et al. in 2016.

Worked examples

Example 1 — a first encounter with Halodesulfovibrio marinisediminis

Start with the simplest possible case. Write down what Halodesulfovibrio marinisediminis claims or describes in one sentence, then invent the smallest concrete situation in which that sentence is true. In science, the smallest case is usually a single object, a single equation or a single measurement. Check that every symbol or term in your sentence has a meaning in that case.

Example 2 — changing one variable

Take the situation from Example 1 and change exactly one quantity: double it, halve it, or set it to zero. Predict what should happen to Halodesulfovibrio marinisediminis before you calculate. Comparing your prediction with the result is the fastest way to find out whether you understand the idea or only the words.

Example 3 — an exam-style question

Typical questions about Halodesulfovibrio marinisediminis ask you to (a) state it precisely, (b) apply it to given data, and (c) explain a limitation. Practise writing all three answers in under five minutes; the third part is what separates a full-mark answer from an average one.

Applications of Halodesulfovibrio marinisediminis

In research: Halodesulfovibrio marinisediminis appears in science research whenever the underlying quantities have to be modelled precisely. Papers usually cite it as a starting assumption and then explore where it breaks down.
In technology and industry: Engineering practice reuses Halodesulfovibrio marinisediminis in design rules, simulations and safety margins. Knowing the idea lets you read a specification sheet and understand why the numbers look the way they do.
In the classroom: Halodesulfovibrio marinisediminis is common in secondary-school and first-year university syllabi. It links to neighbouring topics Bacteria described in 2008, Bacteria stubs, Desulfovibrionales, so understanding it makes those chapters shorter.
In everyday life: Look for Halodesulfovibrio marinisediminis outside the textbook — in sport, cooking, traffic, electronics or the sky above you. An example you found yourself is remembered far longer than one you were given.
