A

Surrounded by gelatinous sheath
Reproduce via fragmentation (breaking off)

A

Anabaena

Nitrogen Fixing Cyanobacteria

21
Q

A

Oscillatoria
Oscillating through water (movement)
Hormongia: Fragments that break off for asexual reproduction.

22
Q

Prokaryotic Cell Division

A

Binary Fission

23
Q

Natural Transformation

A

Dead DNA picked up by living cell and put into genome

24
Q

Artificial Transformation

A

In the lab

ex) bioluminescent fish.

25
Q

Genetic Recombination/ Conjugation

A

through Horizontal Gene transfer:
DNA from one bacterium is transferred into another via pilus or conjugation tube.

Plasmids (small circular pieces of DNA) may be transferred.

Ex. Fertility Factor in E. Coli

F+ to F- = 2 F+

26
Q

Transduction

A

Virus invaded bacteria
replicate dna
package both dnas
transfer to another bacteria

27
Q

Phage Infection

A

Phage dna injected
Phage dna replicated, host degenerated
phage particles with dna packages and break out of cell

28
Q

Transducing Phage Infection

A

Transducing Phage Injects DNA

DNA incorporated by homologous recombination.
