1. The Quick and Dirty of Microbiology

2. Bacteria Structure Unicellular Prokaryotic Some have flagella
No nucleus
Two domains: Eubacteria & Archea

3. Different Shapes Bacillus: Rod-Shaped Coccus: Round-Shaped
Spirrilium: Spiral-Shaped
Arrangements
Staphlo- Grape-like cluster
Strep- Chain
Diplo- Pair

4. Roles of Bacteria Decomposers Nitrogen Fixation Dairy Production
Bio-technology
Some of them are pathogens.
Gram Staining
Purple- Gram + usually can be treated with antibiotics.
Red/Pink Gram –
Usually cannot be treated.

5. Viruses Non-living Made of DNA/RNA surrounded by protein coat (capsid)
Cannot be treated with antibiotics.
Bacteriophage is a virus that infects bacteria.

6. Viral Infection Lytic Infection
Virus invades the host cell and immediately starts making virus parts.
Rapid reproduction

7. Viral Replication Lysogenic Infection Delayed infection
DNA incorporated into host genome.

8. Kingdom Protista
A eukaryotic organism that is not a plant, animal or fungus.
Mostly unicellular
Some are heterotrophic, some are autotrophic.
Classified by method of movement.

9. Endosymbiotic Theory
The development of a eukaryotic cell comes from a symbiotic relationship between simpler cells.

10. Disease Causing Protists
Malaria is caused by a non-motile protists called plasmodium.
Carried by a mosquito.
