Unit: Bacteria Kingdom Part 1: Prokaryotic Cells

Question 0

Cell wall

Answer 0

Thick outer part of the cell

Question 1

Cell membrane

Answer 1

Controls everything that goes in and out of the cell. Keeps everything inside the cell

Question 2

Cytoplasm

Answer 2

Protects DNA. Fills up the cell

Question 3

DNA

Answer 3

Makes you. Controls the cell. Like a brain

Question 4

Ribosomes

Answer 4

Makes proteins

Question 5

Pili

Answer 5

Helps bacteria stick to surfaces

Question 6

Motile

Answer 6

Can move

Question 7

Flagella

Answer 7

Long, whip like structures that help the bacterium move

Question 8

Spherical bacteria

Answer 8

Cocci

Question 9

Rod shaped

Answer 9

Bacilli

Question 10

Spiral shaped

Answer 10

Spirilla

Question 11

Binary fission

Answer 11

Reproduction. Makes an identical bacteria.

1. Cell grows
2. DNA is copied and attached to the cell membrane
3. DNA and its copy separate as the cell grows larger
4. The cell splits into 2. Each new cell has its own DNA

Question 12

Extremophiles

Answer 12

Live in extreme environments. They can live in boiling hot water (ex. Yellowstone geysers) and/or frozen temperatures (ex. 430 m of ice in Antarctica).

Question 13

How are archaea and bacteria are the same?

Answer 13

They are both prokaryotic cells and they both have no nucleus

Question 14

How are archaea and bacteria different

Answer 14

Some archaea don’t have a cell membrane.

They have different materials in the cell wall

Question 15

Can you label a prokaryotic bacterium cell?

Answer 15

If yes, you are good to go

If no, print one one out and practice labeling it.
