1
The Evolutionary History of Biodiversity Concept 2: Analyzing the diversity of bacteria, archaea, protists, and fungi (Ch 26, 27, 28, 31)
2
Bacteria and Archaea You must know: o The key ways in which prokaryotes differ from eukaryotes with respect to genome, membrane- bound organelles, size, and reproduction. o Mechanisms that contribute to genetic diversity in prokaryotes, including transformation, conjugation, transduction, and mutation. Refer to pg 174-176 in Holtzclaw, Ch 27 in Campbell and media resources
3
The Prokaryote Cell Wall contains peptidoglycans -Gram-positive (simple) -Gram-negative (complex) …or cilia …plus circular plasmids
5
Try This! Prokaryotes verses Eukaryotes ProkaryotesEukaryotes Genome Membrane-Bound Organelles Size Reproduction
6
Try This! Prokaryotes verses Eukaryotes ProkaryotesEukaryotes GenomeDNA is circular, with additional circular plasmids DNA is not circular and associated with many proteins Membrane-Bound Organelles No true nuclei or internal compartmentalization Nuclei and membrane-bound organelles such as ER, Golgi, etc Size1-5 µm10-50 µm ReproductionAsexual: Binary fissionSexual or asexual
7
The Prokaryotes: Bacteria and Archaea The size of things The size of things Flagella Flagella
10
The Prokaryotes: Bacteria and Archaea What is the difference between these two domains? Refer to p. 173 Holtzclaw “A Comparison of the three domains of Life”

13
Genetic Diversity in Prokaryotes Asexual Reproduction Binary Fission Need mechanisms to contribute to genetic diversity WHY? Mechanisms for Genetic Diversity Mutation (with rapid reproduction) Transformation Conjugation Transduction
14
Mutation (with Rapid Reproduction)
