Introduction
The evolution of dog breeds is an interesting story of human involvement in the domestication of a wild animal. The artificial selection of dog breeds has led to diversity in size, conformation, and pelage seen today in domestic canines[1]The dog evolved approximately 12,000 years ago when early humans domesticated animals and plants for farming during the Stone Age[2]
The topic must include one section about microbes (bacteria, viruses, fungi, or protists). This is easy because all organisms and ecosystems have microbes.
Open the BIOL 116 Class 2019 template page in "edit."
Copy ALL the text from the edit window.
Then go to YOUR OWN page; edit tab. PASTE into your own page, and edit.
At right is a sample image insertion. It works for any image uploaded anywhere to MicrobeWiki. The insertion code consists of:
Double brackets: [[
Filename: PHIL_1181_lores.jpg
Thumbnail status: |thumb|
Pixel size: |300px|
Placement on page: |right|
Legend/credit: Electron micrograph of the Ebola Zaire virus. This was the first photo ever taken of the virus, on 10/13/1976. By Dr. F.A. Murphy, now at U.C. Davis, then at the CDC.
Closed double brackets: ]]
Other examples:
Bold
Italic
Subscript: H2O
Superscript: Fe3+
Genetics
Include some current research, with at least one image.
Sample citations: [3]
[4]
A citation code consists of a hyperlinked reference within "ref" begin and end codes.
Microbiome
Include some current research, with a second image.
Conclusion
Overall text length should be at least 1,000 words (before counting references), with at least 2 images. Include at least 5 references under Reference section.
