Q

results of gram stain

A

Q

binary fission

A

type of asexual reproduction
creates 2 identical cells
some bacteria can do this in 20 mins,producing a ton of bacteria very quickly

21
Q

steps of binary fission

A

1-copies closed loop of dna(nucleoid)
2-cell grows larger
3-wall forms in the middle wilhich splits the cell in two(each new cell a copy of the nucleoid)

22
Q

conjugation

A

type of sexual reproduction
2nd cell has different genetic material than first one
NOT IDENTICAL

23
Q

steps of conjugation

A

1-one bacteria forms a pilus that connects it to another cell
2-first bacterial cell uses the pilus to transfer all or part of its dna

24
Q

metabolism

A

All the chemical reactions that occur in an organism

25
Heterotrophic bacteria
must consume live almost everywhere and use organic monocles for food
26
Parasites or saprophytes
feed on dead animals
27
Photosynthetic autotroughs
can make their own food use sunlight to carry out photosynthesis to make food example-cyanobacteria
28
Chemosynthesis
process of breaking down and releasing organic compounds containing sulfur and nitrogen
29
chemosynthetic autotrophs
can make their own food use chemicals to carry out chemosynthesis ex-nitrogen fixing bacteria
30
endospores
tiny structures that contain cell’s dna and some cytoplasm surrounded by a tough outer coating
31
reasons why endospores are created
so the bacteria does not dry out for extreme temperatures harsh chemicals
32
ex of bacteria that causes endospores
botulism-attacks the bodies facial nerves anthrax
33
only way to kill an endospore
heat it under extreme pressure to achieve high temp (autoclave)
34
helpful bacteria
used in farming medicine and food production
35
nitrogen fixing bacteria
convert nitrogen in the air into usable chemicals for plants
36
decomposers
recycler nutrients
37
photosynthetic bacteria
release oxygen back into the atmosphere
38
bacteria used to make vinegar pickles cheese yogurt saukraut and antibiotics is what kind of bacteria
helpful
39
bacteria in our digestive system is bad bacteria
false
40
harmful bacteria
some cause diseases in plants and animals can enter through nose, mouth, eyes and open wounds
41
examples of harmful bacteria
strep, tuberculosis, tetanus, Lyme, disease, dental cavities, pneumonia, E. coli
42
Who discovered the first antibiotic and what was it
Alexander Fleming Penicillin fungus -killed disease causing bacteria
43
The zone of inhibition
Antibiotics target bacteria circle around bacteria in which bacteria is not living
44
antibiotic resistance
Process by which bacteria becomes resistant to antibiotics
45
Can humans become resistant to antibiotics
no we can have allergic reactions to them but we can not be resistant
46
what do penicillins do?
Prevent bacteria from making cell walls
47
what do sulfonamides do?
Inhibit folate synthesis
48
What do fluoroquinolones do?
Inhibit DNA replication
49
What do macrolides do?
Inhibit protein synthesis
50
antibiotic usage
Transplants Dialysis Suppressed immune systems Joint replacement
51
antibiotic overuse
Over prescribing Continuous use in livestock feed Humans 30% Animals 70%
52
antibiotic resistance evolutionary process
1- mutation-random 2-natural selection 3-gene flow 4-genetic drift
