Lesson 3e: Cell enveloped Flashcards
Give the cell enveloped in order.
S-layer
Outer membrane
Cell wall
Cell membrane
SOCC
It is consist of paracrystalline monolayer of protein or glycoprotein.
S-layer
The outermost layer of bacteria if its present.
S-layer
Function of S-layer:
facilitates cell surface interaction, adhesion, and protection.
The sticky slimy polysaccharide external to cell wall.
GlycocalyxF
Function of glycocalyx:
Prevents the cell from attacks and stress
Give examples of glycocalyx:
Biofilm, capsule, slime layer.
The thick protective layer secreted by bacteria that function as adhesive, protects from desiccation and phagocytosis.
Capsule
Capsule is present in what type of cell wall bacteria?
Gram negative bacteria
Think layer that can easily be deformed and detached: that prevents the bacterial cell from drying and trap nutrients inside.
Slime layer
