Micro ch. 3,4,5 Flashcards
Bacteria Motility types
swimming, sheathed, swarming, social gliding, gliding
antibiotic resistance E. Coli video recap
took 11 days to reach the center, most bacteria died, e.coli divides every 20 - 30 minutes, its a gram negative bacteria so it’s naturally antibiotic resistant, common infection is food poisoning from e-.coli, it’s naturally found in the small intestines
is E.Coli gram positive or negative
negative so it’s naturally antibiotic resistant
Where is E.Coli naturally found?
small intestines, which is why good hygiene is important and women get more UTI’s
polar flagella types
monotrichous, lophotrichous, amphitrichous
the rod, hook, and filament of flagella are what material? in bacteria
hollow
benefits of polar swimming motility in flagella in bacteria
faster and can change direction easier….has reversible flagella and unidirectional flagella
bacteria swarming motility typically has bacteria with what type of flagella
peritrichous flagella
this type of motility secretes molecules to help them move across the surface
swarming motility
pathogenic bacteria with this type of coating are more difficult to clear by the immune system
polysacchoride coating
chemotaxis
movement of a bacterium toward a concentrated chemical
chemoreceptors
sense the attractants or repellents for the bacterium
measuring chemotaxis
control (neutral), attractant, repellent
phototaxis
similar to chemotaxis, but for sunlight. photoreceptors sense light and signal to increase the efficiency
axoneme
the core of cilia
rings of the flagella body
l ring, p ring, ms ring, c ring
gliding motility
motility in cells without flagella, slower and smoother, occurs along the long axis ofthe cell
fimbriae
important for surface attachment, biofilm formation, pellicle formation, pathogenesis
extension and retraction of type 4 pili (boat fishing line)
twitching motility
are there pathogenic archea?
no, none that’s been found to date
