Prokaryotic cell
This produce oxygen in the water it is primitive and it is also called blue green algae a group of photosynthetic bacteria that plays a crucial role in the earths ecosystem
Cyanobacteria
Largest bacteria visible to the naked eye 5,000 times bigger than average microbe
Thiomargarita magnifica
This is the protective layer
Cell wall
This regulates entry and exit
Plasma membrane
This is the outermost layer slimy and gel like
Capsule
Nutrients of the cells are suspended here and it is also known as “swimming pool of nutrients”
Cytoplasm
This circular dna and this allows certain bacteria to be resistant or microevolution
Plasmid
This is the control center and where circular dna is
Nucleoid
This is the protein synthesis or production
Ribosome
This is for movement
Flagellum
This is for bacterial attachment
Fimbriae
Transfer a plasmid during a process called conjugation
Pili
