16
Q

Archea vs bacteria

A

Both single celled, single circular chromosome, divide similarly. Metabolic pathways are different.

17
Q

Bacteria shapes

A

Spherical or cocci, rod or bacilli, spiral or spirilli

18
Q

Anaerobes that can’t survive in O2

A

Obligate anaerobes

19
Q

Bacteria that can switch between O2 and other metabolism

A

Facultative anaerobes

20
Q

Gram +

A

Stains purple by absorbing violet stain. Thick Cell wall made of peptidoglycan, also contains lipoteichoic acid which may trigger immune response

21
Q

Gram -

A

Stains pink by absorbing safranin, thin cells walls made of peptidoglycan, lipopolysaccharides in outer membrane trigger human immune response greater than gram +

22
Q

Chemotaxis

A

Ability of a cell to detect chemical stimuli and move - ex bacteria w/ flagella

23
Q

Prokaryotic Flagella Vs eukaryotic flagella

A

Basal body, hook, filament vs 9 + 2 microtubules

24
Q

Binary fission

A

Simple asexual reproduction in prokaryotes

25
Genetic recombination processes
Transformation, conjugation, transduction
26
Transformation
Integration of foreign genetic material into host genome (such as lysis)
27
Conjugation
Bacterial form of sex. Donor male forms conjugation bridge to recipient female. Must have sex factor to form bridge, sex factor type of plasmid
28
Transduction
Requires a vector - bacteriophage
29
Bacterial growth phases
Lag-exponential or log- stationary-death
30
Viral genetic info may be
Circular or linear, ss or ds, dna or rna
31
Virions
Viral progeny
32
+ sense vs - sense viruses
+ sense is ssrna directly to proteins by ribosomes, - sense is ssrna to complementary rna then to protein (must carry rna replicase)
33
Retroviruses
Ssrna to dna then integrates into host cell genome
34
Lyric cycle
Bacteriophage maximizes host cell until it lysis. Viruses are termed virulent
35
Lysogenic cycle
Virus integrates into cell genome as a prophage, will replicate w/ bacteria
36
Prions
Infectious proteins that cause disease by triggering misfolding of other proteins - causes protein aggregates which impede function
37
Viroids
Pathogens that affect plants
