Q

5 different kingdoms?

A
  1. Monera: unicellular/multicellular
  2. protists:unicellular/multicellular
  3. Fungi:unicellular/multicellular feeds on organic matter
  4. plants:multicellular, produces own food
  5. Animals: multicellular, needs to obtain food from other sources

Q

advantages of using scientific names?

A
  • recognized by scientists throughout the world
  • each species= one name
  • related creatures may have the same genus but different species name

Q

why are microbes important

A

some microbes,pathogens, make you sick others can break down fiber in your gut

by studying it we can know why and how to cure/use sickness and benefits

17
Q

5 characteristics of Monera?

A
  1. prokaryotic
  2. single cellular
  3. single chromosome+plasmids
  4. reproduce by binary fission
  5. shows great metabolic diversity
18
Q

3 shape of bacteria?

A

circular=cocci
rod shaped = bacilli
spiral shaped= sperilla

19
Q

obligate anaerobes?

A

any grow in absence of oxygen

20
Q

obligate aerobes?

A

bacteria must have oxygen

21
Q

facultative anaerobes m?

A

grow with or withought oxygen

22
Q

fermentation?

A

glucose broken doe withought oxygen

23
Q

binary fission?

A

splitting into two offspring

24
Q

fermentation or cellular respiration produces more energy?

A

cellular respiration produces more energy because it fully breaks down carbon bonds

25
endoscope formation?
survival mode of replication. form an endospore (Dna in tough protein capsule) when cell does the endospore remains waiting to germinate in right conditions
26
pathogens?
bacteria virus or other micro organisms that can cause disease
27
antibiotics?
chemical produced synthetically or by microorganisms a that inhibit growth or destroy certain other microorganisms
28
how does antibiotic resistance appear/occur?
develops from mutations within a bacteria population
29
difference between antiseptic and disinfectant ?
antiseptic: chemical agents to prevent infection disinfectant: chemical agents user to disinfect
30
charecterisisct of protists?
- microscopic - unicellular - eukaryotic
31
compare heterotrophs and autotrophs
heterotrophs: obtain food produced by others autotrophs: produce own food by photosynthesis+ chemosynthesis
32
3 main phyla of plant like protists?
``` 1.euglenophyta (euglenids) 2.chrysophytagolden (brown algae and diatoms) 3.pyrrophtya (dinoflagellates) ```
33
function of eyespot?
detects light
34
contractile vacuole?
helps remove excess water
35
4 main phyla of animal protists?
1. phylum sarcodina(amoeba) 2. phylum Mastigophora(typanosoma) 3. phylum ciliaphora(paramecium) 4. phylum sporozoa(plasmodium)
36
endoplasm vs ectoplasm?
endoplasm=clear outer cytoplasmic layer endoplasm= inner granule-rich cytoplasm
37
pseudopodia?
"false feet" temporary cytoplasm-filled parts of cell wall that change form to move/find food
38
what is taxonomy?
the science of classification
