18
Q

Examples of animals

A

Mammals, insects

19
Q

A

Photosynthesis

20

Singled cell fungi has walls made of

A

Chitin

22
Q

Singled cell fungi feed of

A

23
Q

A

Carbohydrates as glucose

24
Q

Fungi examples

A

Nucor (has a typical fungal hyphae structure) and yeast (single called)

25
Q

Examples of protoctists

A

Amoeba ( live in pond water) animal cell characteristics
And chlorella ( has chloroplast, more like plants

26
Q

Pathogenic example

A

Plasmodium that causes malaria.

27
Q

Prokaryotic organism example

A

Bacteria

28
Q

Bacteria is

A

Microscope single called organisms

29
Q

Prokaryotic cells have

A

Cell membrane, slime capsule, cell wall, plasmids, cytoplasm, genetic material, flagella.

30
Q

Some bacteria can carry out

A

Photosynthesis but most feed of of other living or dead organisms.

31
Q

Bacteria examples

A

Lactobacillus bulgaricus (a rod shaped bacterium used in production of yogurt and milk)
And pneumococcus (a spherical bacterium that acts as a pathogen to cause pneumonia).

32
Q

Difference between eukaryotic and prokaryotic cells?

A

Eukaryotic have a membrane bound nucleus containing genetic material.
Prokaryotic has no membrane bound nucleus, all genetic material is free floating in the cytoplasm.

33
Q

Pathogen

A

Is an organism which causes diseases

34
Q

Pathogens May include

A

Fungi, bacteria, protoctists and viruses.

35
Q

Viruses

A

Not living cells, smaller particles than bacteria, reproduce only inside living cells,they infect ever type of living organism.

36
Q

Structure of a virus

A

Variety or shapes and sizes, no cellular structure
They have a protein coat,contain a type of nucleic acid,and dna or rna

37
Q

Examples of a virus

A

Tobacco mosaic virus that discoloured leaves of tobacco plants to prevent chloroplast forming.
And influenza that causes flu
And HIV that causes aids.
