Gram positive cell wall color

20
Q

Gram negative cell wall color

21
Q

Gram-positive cell

A

Thick, consist of peptidoglycan

22
Q

Gram-negative cell wall

A

Very thin, have outer membranes containing lipopolysaccharides

23
Q

Plasmid

A

Small DNA molecule that is separate from chromosomal DNA

24
Q

Bacterial genetic recombination

A

Transformation, conjugation, transduction

25
Transformation
Integration of foreign genetic material into genome
26
Conjugation
Sexual reproduction in bacteria
27
Transduction
Transfer of genetic material via a bacteriophage vector
28
Transposon
Genetic elements that can insert or remove themselves from the genome
29
Bacterial growth phases
Lag, exponential, stationary, death
30
Capsid
Virus protein coat
31
Bacteriophage
Viruses that infect bacteria, contain tail sheath and tail fibers
32
Positive sense RNA virus
Genome can be directly translated by host cell
33
Negative sense RNA
Requires complementary strand to be synthesized by RNA replicase
34
Prion
Infectious proteins that trigger misfolding of proteins
35
Viral progeny are released through
Lysis or extrusion
36
Extrusion
Virus leaves cell by fusing with plasma membrane
37
Lytic cycle
Bacteriophage produces massive amounts of virions until the cell lyses
38
Lysogenic cycle
Virus integrates into host genome as a provirus/prophage and reproduces along with the cell
39
Viroids
Small circular RNA pathogens that can turn off genes
40
Cells create organelles and increase in size during
G1 stage
41
Interphase includes
G1, S, G2
42
Cell checks to ensure correct DNA replication during
G2 stage
