Classification Domain Archaea and Kingdom Archaebacteria
…No peptidoglycan in cell wall …DNA similar to Eukaryotes …Harsh Environments
3
Domain Bacteria and Kingdom Eubacteria
…Peptodoglycan in cell wall …DNA unlike eukaryotes
4
Bacteria Anatomy Cell Wall Capsule Endospore Pili Flagella
5
Bacteria commonly come in three forms. rod-shaped, called bacilli
spiral, called spirilla or spirochetes spherical, called cocci Lactobacilli: rod-shaped Spirochaeta: spiral Enterococci: spherical
6
Bacteria can evolve resistance to antibiotics.
A bacterium carries genes for antibiotic resistance on a plasmid. A copy of the plasmid is transferred through conjugation. Resistance is quickly spread through many bacteria.
7
Viruses Nonliving particle that can cause disease.
Composed of a protein coat and nucleic acid
11
Viruses cause two types of infections.
Lytic host bacterium The bacterophage attaches and injects it DNA into a host bacterium. The host bacterium breaks apart, or lyses. Bacteriophages are able to infect new host cells. The viral DNA directs the host cell to produce new viral parts. The parts assemble into new bacteriophages. The viral DNA forms a circle. The virus may enter the lysogenic cycle, in which the host cell is not destroyed.
12
Lysogenic The prophage may leave the host’s DNA and enter the
The viral DNA is called a prophage when it combines with the host cell’s DNA. Although the prophage is not active, it replicates along with Many cell divisions produce a colony of bacteria infected with prophage. The prophage may leave the host’s DNA and enter the lytic cycle.
13
Kingdom Protista Animal-like (Protozoans) Flagella, Cilia, Pseudopodia
Plant-like (Algae) Photosynthetic Fungi-like (Protozoans) Slime Molds and Water Molds
14
Kingdom Fungi Plants and fungi have different traits.
Fungal cell walls are made of chitin. Plant cell walls are made of cellulose. Plants have chlorophyll and photosynthesize. Fungi absorb food through hyphae. Decomposers, Pathogens, Mutualists
