Bacteria Structure Flashcards
What’s the components of the bacteria
1-genetic material
2-ribosomes (protein synthesis)
3-cytoplasm (surrounded by cell membrane)
4-cell membrane
5-cell wall( after cell membrane)
6-outer membrane
7-capsule
8-flagella
What the function of cell wall, where outer membrane found, what name of bacteria contain outer membrane
Note:-
Any layer function is protect, and 99% of bacteria has cell wall and function protection and determine shape of bacteria,
And the outer membrane found in specific type of bacteria called ( gram negative bacteria)
What’s the functions of capsule
1-protection bacteria from viruses
2-adhesion
Note:-
Virulence factor
What’s Plasmid what’s function
Plasmid contains genetic that defence or development the bacteria to against antibiotics
Types of pili
1-commn (for adhesion with any surface)
2- sex pili (for conjunction)
Virulence effector
Any thing that helps bacteria to causes disease
Structure helps in virulence
Capsule, and pili
Difference between common pili and sex pili (F-pili)
The sex pili is thicker and taller than common pili
Function of sex pili
Helps in transmission Plasmid between two bacteria
