STUDY GUIDE: UNIT 3 possible bacterial unknowns

I’m studying for my Biology class and don’t understand how to answer this. Can you help me study?

Below is a list of all of the possible bacterial unknowns you could be given in lab. Prepare a table that lists the organism, the phylum, class, order, and family to which it belongs, and the medical significance, including the mode of transmission (air, water, food, close contact, sexual contact), and the body system affected (ie, skin, nervous system, cardiovascular/lymphatic, respiratory, digestive, urinary, reproductive). To find the phylum, class, order, and family according to the Bergey’s manual, use this link: https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/pb-assets/assets/9781118960608/Taxonomic_Outline_October_2017-1507044705000.pdf (Links to an external site.)
