1 Study of organisms too small to be seen without a microscope
What is microbiology? Study of organisms too small to be seen without a microscope

2 ARCHEABACTERIA

3 BACTERIA

4 PROTISTA (subject to change)

5 FUNGI (MYCETEAE)

6 PLANTAE

7 ANIMALIAE

8 Viruses are NOT living, but virology is part of microbiology.

9 Classification Domain Kingdom Phylum Class Order Family
Genus + species

10 Scientific names Use italics
After first use, it is okay to use a letter to represent genus (unless you are beginning a sentence) Escherichia coli Staphylococcus aureus

11 Why care about microbes?
First life Necessary for life on Earth Valuable tools for research and industry Food and drink preparation Disease in humans, plants, & other animals Increased knowledge bioremediation

12 Areas of research/clinical application
Epidemiology Health Care Immunology Agricultural microbiology Biotech Industrial microbiology Genetic Engineering Environmental microbiology Pharmaceutical microbiology

13 Scientific Method Ask a question Formulate hypotheses
null alternative Test hypotheses (carefully) Statistics Interpretation Reporting

14 A LITTLE CHEMISTRY

15 ELEMENTS

16 TYPES OF BONDS

17 Ionic bonds

18 Covalent bonds Polar

19 Covalent bonds Non Polar

20

21 Hydrogen bonds

22 pH

23 ORGANIC COMPOUNDS

24 LIPIDS Characteristics
Mostly C & H, not soluble in water, uses include storage (energy), support, part of cell membranes Building blocks Vary depending on type Triglycerides have glycerol head + 3 fatty acids Types Triglycerides, phospholipids, steriods, waxes etc.

25

26 CARBOHYDRATES General characteristics
Composed mostly of C,H, and O, uses include energy storage and as parts of various structures (e.g. cell walls) Building blocks monosaccharides or simple sugars Types monosaccharides e.g., glucose disaccharides e.g., sucrose polysaccharides e.g., starch

27

28 Disaccharides

29 Polysaccharides

30 PROTEINS Characteristics- composed of C,H,O, N, and some with S, uses include as structures, recognition, endocrine, muscle contraction etc. Building blocks amino acids Structural levels Primary Secondary Tertiary Quaternary

31 Structural levels

32 NUCLEIC ACIDS Characteristics: nucleic acids contain C,H, O, N, and P
Building blocksare nucleotides (composed of a nitrogenous base, sugar and phosphate group. Types DNA (deoxyribonucleic acid is the heritable material that codes for proteins. It exists as a double helix RNA (ribonucleic acid) is the compound that takes the information from DNA for the formation of proteins. It is usually single stranded.

33 DNA

34 RNA

35 Prokaryotes Archeabacteria and Bacteria Unicellular
Smaller in general than eukaryotes Membrane bound organelles - absent Reproduction - asexual DNA - circular Proteins assoc. with DNA - Basic Ribosomes - 70S subunit

36 Eukaryotes Protists, Fungi, Plants, and Animals
Mostly Multicellular except protists Larger in general than prokaryotes Membrane bound organelles-present Reproduction – asexual & sexual DNA - linear Proteins assoc. with DNA - Histone Ribosomes - 80S subunit

37 Eukaryotic Cell

38 Cell Membrane Cell membrane Structure Components Arrangement
Functions include Barrier Transport (know diffusion, osmosis, facilitated diffusion and active transport) Recognition (e.g., self vs. non-self) Reception (for protein hormones) Adhesion

39 Cell membrane

40 Nucleus Structure and Function
membrane similar to cell membrane (similar function) Nucleolus (formation of ribosomes) Chromosomes (gene expression) Nucleoplasm (matrix)

41

42 Ribosomes Structure Function
rRNA Proteins Function Site of protein formation (translation) Found in both prokaryotes and eukaryotes (different structurally)

43

44 Endoplasmic Reticulum
Structure membranous system of tunnels and sacs Rough – with ribosomes on surface Smooth- no ribosomes on surface Function Rough – protein synthesis Smooth- lipid synthesis

45

46 Golgi Apparatus Structure also membranous, kind of like a stack of pancakes Function processing of lipids and proteins

47

48 Lysosomes Structure membrane bound sac containing hydrolytic enzymes
Function digestion

49

50 Mitochondria Structure – cigar-shaped, double membrane-bound organelle
Function – Energy transfer by ATP synthesis

51

52 Chloroplast Structure Function
Also cigar or spindle shaped, double membrane-bound, green Function Site of photosynthesis

53

54 OTHER STUCTURES Cell walls, not in animal cells Vacuoles Cytoskeleton
Cytoplasm

55 PROKARYOTIC CELLS

56 Arrangements of flagella Fimbriae Pili
APPENDAGES Flagellum Arrangements of flagella Fimbriae Pili

57

58

59

60

61 GRAM STAIN A differential stain for most bacteria

62

63

64 SPORES Some bacteria produce spores that allow them to survive during adverse conditions

65

66 SHAPES AND ARRANGEMENTS

67 METABOLISM FOR THIS SECTION I WILL BE USING THE OVERHEAD SO THAT I CAN GO OVER INFORMATION AS I WRITE IT DOWN
