1 Bacteria

2 Eubacteria  (True Bacteria) Archaebacteria (Ancient)
A. 2 types: Eubacteria  (True Bacteria) Archaebacteria (Ancient)

3 No membrane bound organelles
B. Bacteria Features: Microscopic Prokaryotes No Nucleus No membrane bound organelles

4 More structures that all bacteria have:
Cell wall Cell membrane Cytoplasm DNA

5 C. Bacteria Shapes Cocci  sphere Streptococci  chains of spheres
Staphylococci  clusters of spheres

6 More Shapes Bacilli  Rod Shaped Spirilla  Spiral or curly

7 Bacteria Structures

8 D. Harsh conditions survived through:
Capsules  slime layers that help bacteria evade immune system Endospores dormant structure

9 E. Movement: Flagella  long whiplike structure (few)
Cillia  short hair like structures (many)

10 F. Reproduction 1.)Binary Fission  asexual reproduction; bacteria duplicates into two 2.)Conjugation  sexual reproduction by using pili Pili = hair like projections that help exchange DNA

11 3.) Cultures When humans aid bacterial growth
Bacteria are grown in petri dishes on agar – a nutrient broth Helps scientists determine the type of bacteria that is growing in an area

12 G. Antibiotics History 1st to discover antibiotics???
Alexander Fleming PENICILLIN HOW?? By accident with bread and fungi

13 Nobel Prize Later Howard Flory received the Nobel Prize for Penicillin

14 Antiseptics Antibiotics Kills or inhibits bacterial growth
Applied directly to skin Exs: Neosporin, Alcohol Drugs taken orally that kill BACTERIAL INFECTIONS Exs: Amoxicillin, Pennicilin, Zithromax,

15 Virus

16 General Facts No Kingdom Non-living Has DNA /RNA No Cells

17 A. Structure Made up of nucleic acids Either DNA or RNA

18 Structure (cont’d) Capsid – protein coating surrounding the nucleic acid Ex. Stomach Virus, Naked Envelope: made of lipids and is outside of the capsid EX. HIV, Flu, Chicken Pox

19 B. Intracellular Parasites
Obligate Intracellular parasite Goes into a cell, replicates, and kills host RNA Viruses known as Retrovirus THE WORST Retroviruses have reverse transcriptase: when RNA begins making DNA and then replicates and mutates

20 What kind of host cell? C. Replication of Virus
Bacteriophage – virus that infect bacteria and is virulent (fast acting) Ex. Stomach flu What kind of host cell?

21 Bacteriophage

22 Reproduction (cont’d)
Lytic Cycle – virulent; makes new virus quickly Lysogenic Cycle –temperate or dormant stage; incubates until conditions are tolerable Ex. Herpes, HIV

23 D. Subcellular Particles
Not viruses Viroids – smallest particle to replicate, has no capsid, and affects plants Ex. Potato Blight, Orange Blight

24 D. Subcellular Particles
Prions – an abnormal form of protein that infects animals Ex. Scrapie, BSE (mad cow disease), Kuru

25 Full words of Abbreviations
Bovine Spongiform Encephalopathy BSE Escherichia coli
