Daily Warm-up March 6th What are the two reproductive cycles of viruses? HW: -Read 20.2, study for quiz tomorrow, test corrections Turn in: -Nothing
2
Prokaryotes
3
Prokaryotes vs. Eukaryotes….
No nucleus or other membrane-bound organelles Small Unicellular Eukaryotes Larger Nucleus and other membrane-bound organelles
4
Two Domains of Bacteria
1. Archaea Extremists High heat or high salt locations
5
2. Eubacteria Heterotrophs – get food from other organisms
Autotrophs – Make their own food - photosynthesis Chemosynthetic Autotrophs – Convert chemicals from atmosphere and soil into food Eubacteria and Archaea are very different. Differences in cell wall composition, different RNA
6
Bacterial Structure? Capsule – sticky layer outside the cell wall (not all have this) Cell wall – supports and protects Plasma membrane – regulates what enters and leaves the bacterium Chromosome – one central loop of DNA (NOT a nucleus) Plasmids – small circular DNA segments Pili
7
Shapes: Bacillus Coccus Spirillium (Rod-shaped) (spherical) (spiral)
9
GROUPINGS DIPLO (TWO) STREP (CHAIN) STAPH (CLUSTER)
11
Movement Not all bacteria move but if they do they usually use
Flagella Slime
12
Gram Stain Gram + Bacteria: turn purple (killed by antibiotic penicillin-attacks the cell wall) –Ex. Strep throat Gram – Bacteria: turn pink (killed by antibiotic tetracycline-doesn’t attack the cell wall) - Ex. E. Coli Antibiotics are drugs used to fight bacterial disease
15
Continuous loop of DNA Plasmids 1 µm Fig. 27-8
Figure 27.8 A prokaryotic chromosome and plasmids The typical prokaryotic genome is a ring of DNA that is not surrounded by a membrane and that is located in a nucleoid region 1 µm
16
Importance of Bacteria
They change “FIX” NITROGEN from the air so organisms can use it Recycle nutrients (oxygen) Food: swiss cheese, pickles, yogurt, vinegar, sauerkraut E. Coli live in our intestines and help digest food Some antibiotics are made by bacteria
17
Bacteria can cause disease
Strep throat Tuberculosis Tetanus Lyme Disease Dental cavities Diphtheria – from contaminated water The Bubonic Plague – transmitted from fleas STDs such as chlamydia, gonorrhea, syphilis Food Poisoning (E.Coli)
18
Reproduction Binary fission- one cell into two identical cells
Conjugation- exchange of genetic material
19
What are the two types of prokaryotes?
What are some ways that bacteria affect our lives? What shape is a bacterium if it is a coccus? Gram staining is important because?
