What are the two domains?
Bacteria and Archae
What kingdom goes with Domain Bactera?
Kingdom Eubacteria
What kingdom goes with Domain Archae?
Kingdom Archaebacteria
What is a similarity between both kingdoms/domains?
They both have cell walls.
What is the main difference between Kingdoms Eubacteria and Archabacteria and between Domains Bacteria and Archae?
Bacteria´s cell walls are surrounded by peptidoglycan and Archae´s cell walls are not.

conjugation
decomposing of dead organisms supplies raw materials and is used in industrial sewage treatment
decomposers
converters of nitrogen into useful forms and gives plants the nutrients to grow
nitrogen fixation
can cause diseases by destroying living toxins or by releasing toxins that upset homeostasis

controlling bacteria - 5 ways to remove and kill bacteria:
a. physical removing the bacteria
b. disinfecting
c. food storage
d. sterilization
e. food processing
Effects of physically removing bacteria
control
effects of disinfecting
controls chemicals
effects of food storage
controls by offering low temperature
effects of sterilization
when instruments are cleaned in temperatures over 100 degrees Celsius this controls
effects of food processing
heat to kill or control
unknown disease that appears in a population for the first time or a well known disease that becomes harder to control
emerging disease
created when bacteria have become resistant to groups of antibiotics b/c they have transferred drug resistant genes
superbugs
particles of protein that cause diseases
prions
