What are Akaryotes?
microorganisms with “no nucleus” another term for prokaryotes
Strepto Arrangment
cells in a chain
Staphylo Arrangment
Cells in random clusters
Diplo Arrangment
when daughter cells remain attached (are in pairs)
Tetrad Arrangment
when 2nd division plane is perpendicular to the 1st
Sarcina Arrangment
When 3rd division plane is perpendicular to the tetrad produced CUBE SHAPED 8 CELLS
GRAM + CELL WALL
Composed of 90% Peptidoglycan and Teichoic Acids that anchor wall to cytoplasmic membrane, SIMPLE structure
GRAM - CELL WALL
Composed of 10% peptidoglycan and phospholipids, proteins, and lipopolysaccharides, COMPLEX structure
Who introduced technique of vaccinations
EDWARD JENNER
Multicellular Eukaryotes that obtain nutrition from absorbing organic material from their environment
FUNGI
Peptidoglycan is the molecule in most of these
BACTERIAL CELL WALL
Waxy substance on mycobacterium that makes them hard to treat
MYCOLIC ACID
what makes flagella run and tumble
RESPONSE TO STIMULI
Rod shaped bacterium cells
BACILLI
Spherical shaped clels
COCCUS
Prokaryotes found in extreme conditions, don’t have peptidoglycan cell walls and don’t cause disease
ARCHAEA
Movement caused by Cilia, Pseudopods, or Flagella
PROTOZOA
Microbes used to remove environment pollutants
BIOREMEDIATION
Polysaccharide composed of chains of two alternating sugars and cross bridges of amino acids
PEPTIDOGLCYAN
Lack nucleus and organelles, simple structure
PROKARYOTES
Have nucleus and membrane bound organelles, complex structure
EUKARYOTES
What color do Gram + cell walls stain?
PURPLE
