Bio #5 Flashcards
what is Taxonomy?
the science of classifying organisms
what is the Name?
scientific name: First part: genus: first letter capitalized, can be written alone Second part: species: not capitalized, never written alone
what is Species?
a group of organisms with similar feature that can interbreed and produce fertile offspring
what is the 7 levels of classification?
Kingdom,Phylum,Class,Order, Family, Genus, and Species
what are Prokaryotes?
All single cells, Archaea bacteria, No nucleus, Cell wall, Live in variety of environment, Were the first cells
what are Eukaryotes?
Single or multi celled, Plants, animals, Protist, fungi, Nucleus, Some have cell wall, Cillia ( some have)
what do both of the do?
Some eat other things, Both singled celled, Ribosomes, DNA cytoplasm, Not all cells have flagellum
How do eukaryotes reproduce?
what is Classification?
Bacteria classified based on their shape, Important prefixes: Mono, di, strep ( chain) and staph ( clump)e.g. Mono coccus: one spherical-shaped.
what is the Common shapes?
Cocci: spherical
Bacilli: rod like
Spirillii: spiral
what are the Five main groups of Bacteria?
Gram positive: postive charge from bacteria
Cyanobacteria (photosynthesis)
Protobacteria ( salmonella)
Chlamydia (parasitic)
Spirochetes ( spring)
what is Archaea?
Halophils ( salt lovers
)Thermophile ( high temp)
Methanogen ( anoxic)
what is Binary fission?
that is when a cell splitting into two identical cells the plasma membrane and cell wall grow,
DNA replicates
Chromosome is replicated and the chromosome move to different sides of the cell,
Protein band in the cell center,
Septum formation begins,
When the septum is complete,
the cells divide. Some will attach or some divide
what is Conjugation?
Transfer of genetic info between two cells that are physically interacting, Two cells line up a section if DNA is transferred from one cell to another ,The cell receiving the new DNA is no longer identical to the cell it came from, This transfer can be chromosome DNA and plasmid
How do they move?
Single flagellum, Cluster of flagellum, Pill
how do they see?
No eyes, Have receptors that can sense harmful bacteria
what is the Protist Kingdome?
one or more eukaryotic cells. , The three types:
what is Plant like protist?
Autotrophs, contain chlorophyll, Have cell wall, 2 major groups, they can change in size, They have similarities to plant cell: chloroplast to do photosynthesis to make food, and cell walls
what is Unicellular algae?
(phytoplankton) or Multicellular algae ( seaweed
what are the of plant like protistTypes?
Dinoflagellates: have flagella to move, Diatoms: silica in their cell walls, have beautiful patterns, Euglenoid: plant like features like chloroplast or flagella Green algae
how do plant like reproduce?
Asexually by mitosis
Sexual by environmental factors are unfavorable, Populations of haploid cell grows by repeated mitotic division, low nitrogen or other environmental change stimulates cells to develop into gametes.
What is Protozoan animal like ?
Animal like protist, Cannot produce their own food, they must consume other organisms, They also do not have cell wall, They have 2 nucleus: macronucleus: controlled the functions and micronucleus reproduction.
what are examples protozoan?
Ciliate: moves with cilia i.e paramecium Rhizopod: moves with cytoplasmic projection called pseudopods ( false feet) i.e Amoeba some pathogenic Flagellate: moves with a whip- like flagella i.e.. Giardia Lambia some parasitic Sporozoan: cannot move on their own, reproduce asexually with spores i.e Malaria: parasites
what is protozoan Reproduction Asexual?
asexual like alge during mitosis, . Two haploid micronuclei fuse. , The cell with 8 nuclei undergoes two round of cytokinesis to produce 4 mature cells that have 1 micronuclei and 1 macronucles
how do protozan sexual reproduction?
Sexual: two protozoans fussing together.
