Kingdom Monera Flashcards
Which kingdom includes Most ancient org ?
Or
First inhibitors of earth belong to which kingdom?
Kingdom monera
Because It contains bacteria which are the most primitive organism and were the first inhibitors of the earth
Explain bacterial morphology
Unicellular Filamentous or Colonial
70s ribosomes
Nucleus not well defined
Nucleotide or incipient nucleus made up of DNA RNA and non histone proteins
Membrane-bound cell organelles are absent
Respiratory enzymes are found to be associated with the Plasma membrane
Cell wall is made up of peptidoglycan
2 org that That are exception wrto cell wall in monera
Archaebacteria-glycoprotein
Pplo mycoplasma-no cell wall
Respiration in bacteria types
Respiration is of two types Aerobic and Anaerobic
Anaerobic bacteria
Two types #Obligate Anaerobes-Respire anaerobically only. Growth is slower and lack enzyme for aerobic respiration. *Example-Clostridium botulinum #Facultative and Anerobes–Respire aerobically. They are capable of switching to anaerobic mode of respiration *Example-pseudomonas
Aerobic bacteria
2 types :-
#Obligate aerobes -Respire aerobically only.In absence of O2 they cannot respire therefore die
*ex- bacillus subtilis
#facultative aerobes-Respire anaerobically. In presence of O2 it aerobically respires. Most of the photosynthetic bacteria or facultative aerobes.
*ex-cholorobium
Most of the photosynthetic bacteria are
Facultative aerobes
Types of Nutrition in bacteria
Two types:- Autotrophic nutrition and heterotropic nutrition #Autotrophic nutrition is a further two types-photosynthetic auto trophs and chemosynthetic autotrophic #Heterotrophs is of three types-symbiont, parasitic ,saprophytic
Autotroph and heterotroph types.
#Phototrophs;-Photolithoautotrophic bacteria and chemosynthetic autotrophic bacteria #Heterotrophs;-Photo organohetrotophic bacteria and chemoorgano heterotrophic bacteria
What are photolithoautotrophic bacteria?
These bacterial species use solar energy to synthesis food due To presence of some pigments
Here water is not The source of electron that acts as the reducing power to convert CO2 into glucose.Bacteria. Octanes reducing power from compounds like hydrogen sulphide or Thio sulphate or organic matter
Pigment present in photolithoautotrophic bacteria are
bacteriochlorophyll, bacteriopurpin, bacteriovirdin
Photosynthesis in bacteria called
Anoxygenic because not O2 envolves due to absence of H2O
Photosynthesis in green plants (higher plants)
Oxygenic because O2 evolves
In photolithoautotrophic bacteria obtain reducing power from?
Or
What are e- donor in photolithoautotrophic bacteria?
Hydrogen sulphide or thiosulphate or organic matter
Examples of photolithoautotrophic bacteria are
Or
Photolithoautotrophic neutrino can be seen in
Purple sulphur bacteria &. Green sulphur bacteria
Contains bacteriopurpin Pigment Bacteriovirdin or chlorobium
Use inorganic sulphur compounds as e- Chlorophyll
&H+ donor Uses H2S as e- & H+ donor
Ex- chromatium,thiospirillium Ex-chlorobium
Another ex is spirulina-Cyanobacteria
What are Photooragnoheterotrophic bacteria ?
Bacteria that uses organic matter as their electron donor and carbon source
Examples of photooragnoheterotrophic bacteria are
Purple non sulphur bacteria Green non sulphur bacteria
Bacteriopurpin pigment Bacteriovirdin pigment
Uses Non-sulphur aliphatic organic Uses non-sulphur aliphatic
compounds as the e– and H+ donor. organic matter as e-&H+ donor
Ex-Rhodospirillum,rhodopseudomonas Ex-chloronema,chloroflexus
Rhodobacter
Most of the photosynthetic bacteria are
Anaerobes- facultative aerobes
What is chemosynthetic autotrophic bacteria
These Bacteria obtain energy from the synthesis of food by oxidising certain inorganic substances like ammonia,nitrates,nitrites,ferrous ions etc.Light is not used as energy source,this energy is later used in carbon assimilation with the help of hydrogen atom from source other than water like hydrogen bacteria and nitrifying bacteria,sulphur bacteria etc
Ex of Hydrogen bacteria nitrifying bacteria sulphur bacteria iron bacteria
Hydrogenomonas
NitroMonas,Nitrococcus,nitrobacter,nitrocystis
Thiobacillus,thioxidan,beggitoa
Ferrobacillus,leptothrix
What is Chemoorganohetrotrophic bacteria ?
This type of bqcteria is incapable of synthesising its own food from simple raw material they obtain nourishment and food from dead and decaying organic matter or directly from a living host .
Types of chemoorganohetrotrophic bacteria
Saprophytic bacteria
Symbionts bacteria
Parasitic bacteria
Ex of parasitic bacteria
Obtain food from living organism called hosts
Disease causing bacteria is called
Pathogenic bacteria
Non pathogenic doesn’t cause any disease
