1 Bacteria Structure, Reproduction, and Recombination
Robby, Boris, John Bacteria Structure, Reproduction, and Recombination

2 Overview How bacteria obtains energy Where you might find bacteria
Binary Fission and genetic recombination Importance of bacteria Horizontal gene transfer

3 Difference between autotroph and heterotroph
  Autotrophs- produce their own food from the substances available in their surroundings using sunlight  Heterotrophs -rely on other organisms both plants and animals for nutrition.

4 Differences in bacterial energy
Chemoautotroph- create their own energy and biological materials from inorganic chemicals. Photoautotroph- carry out photosynthesis. Using energy from sunlight, carbon dioxide and water converted into organic materials Chemoheterotroph- needs organic molecules for both energy and carbon. Photoheterotroph- photosynthetic but needs organic compounds as a carbon source.                                        

5 Where you would find... Chemoautotrophs-  in hostile environments-primary producers in those areas  Photoautotrophs- Anyplace with sunlight, carbon dioxide, and water  Chemoheterotroph- rely on area around them, need environment with organic carbon and organic energy (need other living things) Photoheterotroph- Anyplace with sunlight and organic carbon

6 Anaerobes and aerobes  Facultative anaerobes- Can make ATP aerobically but doesn’t need oxygen to make ATP  Obligate aerobes- Makes ATP aerobically but cant make energy anaerobically  Obligate anaerobes- Makes ATP without oxygen but in presence of oxygen it will die                                                                                                                                    RM

7 Binary Fission Asexual reproduction which the organism duplicates its DNA in 2 Produces 2 identical daughter cells Reproduction of prokaryotic cells It uses cytokinesis to duplicate BZ

8 Genetic Recombination
Production of offspring with traits that differ from their parents Allows organisms to evolve to match their environment Creates new genetic types Involves with pair of homologous chromosomes BZ

9 Bacteria resistance to drugs
Changes it to make it harmless Change outer structure to not be detected Pump the drugs back out Bacteria multiply BZ

10 Why does bacteria become Resistant?
Overuse of antibiotics Using antibiotics for every illness Bacteria mutates Use of antibiotics BZ

11 Horizontal Gene Transfer
Three process conjugation, transformation, transduction Main process of spreading antibiotic resistance Important role in the evolution of bacteria antibiotic resistance in one species of bacteria can be transferred to another species JP

12 Conjugation Bacteria transferring genetic material from through direct contact with another piece of bacteria One bacterium donates genetic material and the other receives it Uses a pilus to make contact with receiver and to transfer information Conjugation is very common in creating antibiotic resistant genes JP

13 Transformation •Genetic alteration of cell resulting from an interaction of genetic material from outside the cell •The recipient bacteria must be in a state of competence •genetic material from outside the cell passes from one bacterium to another JP

14 Transduction DNA enters bacteria through a virus or viral vector
Used to introduce a foreign gene into a host cell’s DNA Body's lysosomes will kill virus  Leads to production of new phage cells This is just like getting a flu shot JP

15 ABC's   How does a chemoautotroph acquire energy A- is photosynthetic but needs organic compounds as a carbon source. B- must take in organic molecules for both energy and carbon. C- create their own energy and biological materials from inorganic chemicals. D-  carry out photosynthesis. Using energy from sunlight, carbon dioxide and water are converted into organic materials

16 ABC's  What will happen if obligate anaerobes are in the presence of oxygen A- They will make energy anaerobically B- They will die C- They will make energy aerobically D- Nothing

17 ABC's What is Binary Fission? A- Sexual reproduction where the organism splits its DNA in half B- Asexual reproduction where the organism splits its DNA in fourths C- Asexual reproduction where the organism splits its DNA in half D- Sexual reproduction where the organism splits its DNA in fourths Correct Answer: C BZ

18 ABC's Correct Answer: A and C
Why does bacteria become resistant to drugs? (2 answers) A- Overuse of drugs B- Bacteria multiply C- Bacteria mutate  D- Not enough use of drugs Correct Answer: A and C BZ

19 ABC's When does transduction occur? A – transduction
B – When DNA from outside the cell interacts with the cell C – DNA enters through virus D – The body signals for this process Correct answer C JP

20 ABC's What do bacteria cells use to make contact during conjugation?
A – nothing B- pilus C – membrane D – mitochondria  Correct answer B JP
