Feeding off of other living or dead organisms

30
Q

Order these biggest to smallest:

Virus, bacteria , animal cells

A

Animal cell
Bacteria
Virus

33
Q

What’s the difference between prokaryotes and eukaryotes

A

Eukaryotes have a membrane bound nucleus, but prokaryotes don’t

34
Q

All viruses are….?

A

Pathogens

35
Q

Give 3 examples of viruses and explain what they are

A

INFLUENZA: causes flu
HIV: causes AIDS
TOBACCO MOSAIC: destroys chloroplasts in a plant and stops photosynthesis. Causes discolouration in leaves.

36
Q

Are viruses living or not?

A

Non living

37
Q

Viruses are parasitic, what does this mean?

A

Use living organisms to reproduce

38
Q

Can viruses reproduce in non living cells?

A

No but can survive outside a host for a long time

39
Q

Name the features of a virus?

A

No cellular structure
Protein coat
1 type of nucleic acid (dna or rna)

40
Q

Do viruses have a nucleus?

A

No

41
Q

How do viruses reproduce?

A

By infecting host cells and replicating themselves to form their DNA into virus particles. Once the host cells burst, the virus is spread.

42
Q

Do protocists have a nucleus?

A

Yes

Q

Does bacteria have a nucleus?

A

No

44
Q

A

Circular chromosome of dna

Plasmids

45
Q

What are the plasmids in bacteria?

A

Closed circles of dna in the cytoplasm that can move from one bacterium to the other.

46
Q

Do Bacteria have cell walls?
