16
Q

What’s are the similarities between gram negative and gram positive bacteria?

A
  • They both have an inner most plasma membrane

- They both have outer capsules

17
Q

What’s are the similarities between gram negative and gram positive bacteria?

A
  • They both have an inner most plasma membrane

- They both have outer capsules

18
Q

What are the differences between gram negative and gram positive bacteria?

A
  • Gram negative has an additional cell wall
  • Gram negative has a thinner peptidoglycan cell wall whereas positive has a thick cell wall
  • Gram positive is more easily treatable with antibiotics
  • Gram negative loses its purple colour after a stain due to the thin cell wall
  • Gram positive stains purple
19
Q

What are the properties of a prokaryotic cell?

A
  • Single cellular organism
  • Not membrane bound
  • Extremely tiny
  • Single circular chromosomes attached to cell wall
20
Q

Describe the properties of a eukaryotic cell.

A
  • Single or multicellular
  • Membrane bound
