Bacterial Processes Food SourceRespirationReproduction Favorable conditions Survival
2
Food Source Photosynthesis – make food using sunlight energy
3
Food Source Chemosynthesis – make food using energy from inorganic chemicals Hydrogen sulfide
4
Food Source Parasites – living on or in another living organism
5
Food Source Saprophytes – live on a dead organism and decompose it
6
Respiration The breakdown of glucose (food) to release energy AerobicAnaerobic
7
Respiration Aerobic – use O₂
8
Respiration Anaerobic – don’t use O₂ hydrogen sulfide and methyl mercaptan
9
Reproduction AsexualSexual Most bacteria can reproduce either way
10
Reproduction Asexual – binary fission (split in two) – most common means of reproduction
11
Reproduction Sexual – produce genetic variety ConjugationTransformation
12
Conjugation The exchange of genetic material (plasmids) between 2 cells
13
Conjugation Example http://www.hhmi.org/biointeractive/bacterial -conjugation http://www.hhmi.org/biointeractive/bacterial -conjugation
14
Transformation Absorption of DNA from the environment
15
Favorable Conditions Warmth Moisture Darkness Food
16
Survival Endospores – a dormant stage of a bacterium to survive unfavorable conditions
17
Advantage over others? Endospore
18
Negative Effects of Bacteria

39
Viral or Bacterial Disease? Acne
40
Bacterial Diseases Endotoxins – poisonous chemicals inside the bacteria that aren’t released until the bacteria die Example – typhoid fever, UTI
41
Bacterial Diseases Exotoxins – poisonous chemicals released from living bacteria as waste Example – acne, tetanus
42
Food Spoilage Bacteria eat the food and release bad tasting and/or poisonous chemicals
43
Prevention Refrigerate, freeze, boil and seal, dehydrate, salt
44
Benefits of Bacteria
45
Human Body E. coli lives in the colon and breaks down food
46
Human Body Bacteria cover our skin and eat bad organisms
47
Fuels Bacteria produce alcohol and methane which are burned for energy
48
Foods Bacteria help make cheese, cottage cheese, and yogurt
49
Other Clean up oil spills
50
Other Sewage treatment
51
Other Make medicines Insulin antibiotics
