Chapter 5-7 Flashcards
Virus
(Non-living) non cellular infectious agents that are incapable of reproduction without host cell and is made of nuclei acid core
Capsid
Protein coat that consists of proteins that bind receptors to host cells
Retrovirus
Store genetic energy info in from of DNA
Lysogenic viruses
Reproduce by their inserting DNA into DNA of host cells
Bacteriophages
Viruses that infect bacteria
Microbes
(Microscopic marine organisms) unseen to the naked eye and belongs to
- Bacteria and Archaea
- Viruses (not truly)
- Fungi
- Protozoa
Prokaryotes (diverse + widespread)
- Archaea and Bacteria
- no nucleus
- single cell chromosome
- most have cell walls
- great metabolic diversity
-Ubiquitous (survival anywhere, hot/cold/acidic/salty)
Invertebrates
Marine animals without a backbone
larva
Immature individual that looks different from adult animal

Suspension feeders
Choanocytes (collar cells)
Spongin (support protein)
Spicules (support structures made of silica/calcium carbonate)
Phylum Cnidaria
(Jellies and corals)
Radial body symmetry
Captures prey with stinging cells (nematocysts)
2 body forms (polyp and Medusa)
Carnivores
Class Ctenophora (comb jellies) - no stinging cells/ bilateral symmetry/ sticky colloblasts wo venom
Phylum Platyhelminthes
(Flatworms, tapeworms, flukes)
Bilateral symmetry
Incomplete digestive tract
Hermaphrodites
Parasitic or free living
Phylum Annelida
Segmented worms (leeches)
Free living carnivores
Some parasitic and suck blood
Anterior and posterior suckers to hold prey
Dorsal ventrally flattened
No setae
