Bacteria19-1 BIO 1004 Flora
Classifying Prokaryotes • 2 Categories • _________________ • _________________ • Eubacteria • Larger of the 2 kingdoms • Live anywhere • Surrounded by _____________ • Contain peptoglycan (___________________) • Protects from injury • Inside cell wall is cell membrane • Some of these bacteria have a second membrane • Makes it resistant to damage
Cont. Types • Archaebacteria • Look similar to eubacteria, but differ chemically • Lack _________________ and also have different membrane lipids • DNA is more like eukaryotes • Live in harsh environments
ID of Prokaryotes • Shape • Rod Shaped – bacilli • Spherical – ________ • Spiral -spirilla • Cell Walls • Gram staining is used to determine what type (how many) of cell wall the bacteria has (2 or 1)
ID of Prokaryotes Cont. • Cell Walls Cont. • Gram positive – thick peptoglycan and retain __________ color • Gram negative – much thinner walls and ____________ color Types of movement - snake, whip, glide, or no movement
Metabolic Diversity • Heterotrophs (2 types) • Chemoheterotrophs – must take in organic molecules for energy and carbon supply • _________________– use sunlight for energy, but also need to take in organic molecules • Autotrophs • Photoautotrophs – use sunlight to make carbon compounds from __________ • Live in deep ocean
Releasing Energy • Obligate aerobes – organisms that require oxygen • Obligate anaerobes – do not require oxygen • Soil bacteria – clostridium botulinum • __________ anaerobes – survive with or without oxygen • Can live anywhere
Growth and Reproduction • 3 Types • Binary Fission – replicates DNA and divides in half • asexual • Conjugation – hollow bridge forms between bacterial cells • ________ and _________ move from one cell to the other • Increases genetic diversity • Spore formation • Occurs when reproduction is unfavorable • ________________ – DNA enclosed in thick walls • Can remain dormant for years
Importance of Bacteria • Decomposers • Nitrogen fixation • Importance in humans • Digestion • E. coli
