A

Q

What are 3 things that chromosomal dna allows in a bacteria cell

A

Respiration, replication, making proteins
(So like Respiration, reproduction, growth)

(Bc does not have ribosomes or mitochondria to do respiration or make proteins)

Q

How is a virus a parasite

A

Because it lives in another organism and benefits by deriving it’s nutrients from it, and host cell on the other hand does not benefit from it

Q

Why is a virus not a living organism

A

Because it does not carry out any of the seven characteristic of living organisms and can only reproduce by infecting a host cell

25
What is mycellium
Network of hyphae
26
What is hyphae
Thread like filaments of a fungi
27
What is saprotrophic nutrition
A form of extra cellular digestion when an organism secretes enzymes onto dead organic material to gain nutrition
28
How do animals move
Through nervous coordination
29
Describe how fungi feed
A spore lands on the food, where a hypha is grown from it. The hypha begins to grow until the mycelium covers the surface of the food. The hyphae secrete digestive enzymes to break down the food into soluble substances such as sugars, which is called extra cellular digestion This is then absorbed by the mould This process is called saprotrophic nutrition
30
What part of the mushroom fungi is the actual mushroom and what is its function
It’s a fruiting body that grows on top and is the reproductive structure
31
What is the proper name for bread mould
Mucor
32
What do the dark spots represent on a piece of bread
Structures for reproduction
33
Why are the hyphae not divided up into separate cells
Because they have many nuclei in their cytoplasm
34
Are mushrooms toadstools and mould multicellular or unicellular
Multi cellular
35
Are protoctists unicellular or multicellular
Most protictists are unicellular but some can be multicellular
36
Explain how viruses reproduce
They infect a host cell and control its genetic material. They begin replicating their dna + protein coats until they have destroyed the host cell The particles are released to infect more cells
37
What are two benefits of enclosed dna
More efficient functioning as other organelles will not be able to interfere. Maximum extraction of energy
38
What kingdom does moss belong to
Plant
39
What is a control variable
A variable that is kept constant
40
What is a hyphae
A branching filament that makes up a network of mycelium in fungi
41
Do prokaryotes have ribosomes
Yes. Prokaryotes do have ribosomes
42
Do prokaryotes have membrane bound organelles (organelles such as chloroplasts)
No
43
Which two kingdoms are microscopic, and which three are visible or atleast mostly visible
Bacteria, protoctists, are microscopic Animals, plants and fungi are visible
44
How many micrometers are in a cm
One cm= one thousand micrometers(1000)
45
What are the two ways in which bacteria can feed
Through photosynthesis and by being heterotrophic(decomposers)
46
Is a virus made of a cell
No it is made of a particle
47
What is a pathogen
A pathogen is a microorganism that can cause disease
48
Draw the cells of the 5 kingdoms plus virus
Bacteria: cytoplasm,plasmids, nucleoid, cell membrane, cell wall made of peptidoglycogen, capsule, flagellum Fungi: nucleus, cell wall made of chitin,vacuole, ribosomes, Protoctists: vacuole, cytoplasm, flagellum, cell wall plasmids In your notebook(refer to ur book for answers) (Remember virus is not a living organism)
49
Describe the features of a fungal cell
Nucleus, cell wall(chitin),cell membrane, cytoplasm, vacuole, ribosomes, mitichondria
49
What are the parts of a virus cell
RNA, protein coat, lipid envelope
50
What is the flagella
The flagella is a long strand of protein that helps the bacteria move around
51
What is the function of the slime capsule in bacteria
The slime capsule is the protective layer
52
Are fungi heterotrophic or autotrophic
Heterotrophic As they need to feed on other organisms for nutrition
53
What disease is caused by plasmodium and what kingdom does it belong to
Malaria Belongs to the protoctists
54
What is the shape of lactobaccilus bulgaris
Rod shaped(bacilli)
55
What is AIDS and what virus is it caused by
AIDS is caused by the HIV virus and is when the persons immune system is damaged.
56

Doesn’t have a nucleus, contains circular chomosomal dna(nucleoid), has a cell membrane
57
Bacteria and fungi break down organic material in the soil so they are called…
Decomposers/Saprotrophs
58
Do bacteria have a cell wall
Yes
59
Are all viruses pathogens
Yes
60
What is the storage carbohydrate inside a fungal cell
