1.2 fungi are fed by ____________ nutrition

A

saprotrophic

24
Q

1.2 fungi cells have

A

NO chloroplasts
a chitin cell wall
many nuclei per (large) cell

25
1.2 fungi stores carbohydrates as
glycogen
26
1.2 two examples of fungi
yeast and mucor
27
1.3 prokaryotes means
they don't have a proper nucleus
28
1.3 the genetic material inside a prokaryote is
in the cytoplasm in the form of a single circular chromosome
29
1.3 some bacteria p... others are d....
photosynthesise others are decomposers
30
1.3 (bacteria) _____________ breaks down milk sugars and is used in ______ production
lactobacillus is used in yoghurt production
31
1.3 (bacteria) pneumococcus is pathogenic and one of the causes of
pneumonia
32
1.3 bacteria are s___ and s_____
small and single-celled organisms
33
1.3 bacterial cells have a
cell membrane controls what enters and leaves the cell
34
1.3 bacterial cell wall is made of
peptidoglycan which maintains shape and protects the cell
35
1.3 bacterial cells have a cytoplasm that
contains the circular chromosome where chemical reactions occur
36
1.3 many bacteria also have a _____ capsule
slime outside the cell wall providing more protection
37
1.3 many bacteria also have pl______
plasmids (small circled of DNA containing extra genes)
38
1.3 many bacteria also have a fl_______
flagellum which allows the bacteria to move
39
1.3 decomposers (fungi&SOMEbacteria) feed by s... nutrition
saprotrophic nutrition
40
1.3 how does saprotrophic nutrition work
they secrete digestive enzymes out their cells onto the dead organism, the dead organism is broken down into small soluble molecules that are then absorbed by the decomposer
41
1.3 example of bacteria
lactobacillus bulgaricus
42
1.4 pathogens are microorganisms that
cause infectious disease
43
1.4 pathogens harm the host by
releasing toxins damaging cells
44
1.4 all viruses are
pathogens
45
1.4 b_______ f____ and p__________ can also be pathogens
bacteria, fungi and protoctista
46
1.4 viruses are a ... surrounded by
strand of genetic material surrounded by a protein coat
47
1.4 viruses are NOT
cells and not alive
48
1.4 to reproduce viruses,
enter a host cell take over ribosomes and enzymes make new virus particles the cell dies the viruses are released to infect new cells
49
1.4 viruses can affect
ALL other organisms (tobacco mosaic virus in leaves) (influenza infects humans - cough&temp)
50
1.4 example of a virus
tobacco mosaic virus
