decomposing of any naturally occuring organic molecules.
-
Non-Biodegradable:
non living organisms can breakdown this stuff
-

-
Cell Structure and Functions...
Prokaryotic vs. Eukaryotic
-
Prokaryotic:
- -bacteria
- -not complex, no nucleus, and no mitocchondria
-
Eukaryotic:
- (plants, animals, fungi, and protozoans)
- (cellulose and chitin)
-
Cell Envelope:
-very thin
-bi-layer of phospholipids and protein molecules
-very flexible, selectively permeable
-
Cell Wall:
- very thick and riged, the riged body determins the cells shape
- -the cell wall provides protection
- (from loss or gain of water)
-
1 meter:
1,000 millimeters
-
-
1 meter:
1,000,000 microns
-
1mm:
1/1,000,000 of a micron
-
antibodies, foods such as mushrooms and cheese do what?
produce useful products
-
Protozoan's:
- -eukaryotic
- -unicellular (some colinies)
- -herterotrophic
-
Protozon's habitat:
live in water, soil, and on the bodies of other life forms.
-
what are the 3 types of symbioses:
commersalism
mutalism
parasitism
-
Protozoans cell size:
100mm
-
effects of protozoans:
they cause decomposition and pathogyn's
-
Commensalism:
- -two species
- -one benifts form the other and on one is affected
-
Mutualism:
both species benefit, one doesnt effect the other.
-
Parasitism:
human and mosquitoes
-
Viruses:
- not all are cellular (parasite)
- - no independent immune system
- -they are obligated, intrcellular parasites of hosts cells
-
cell size of a virus:
they are 1/1,000 of a micron and are harmful
-
the habitat of a virus:
all living organisms
-
the effects of the virus:
it kills the host of the cell
-
Bacteria:
few bateria are without a cell wall, in bateria the shape will be off.
-
Mycoplasmas:
are bacteria that naturally lack a cell wall
-
L-Forms:
naturally arise form mutaiton in the wall forming genes.
-they also can be induced artifically by treatments.
-
what the L-Forms do?
breaks down cell wall material of certain bacteria
-some bacteria have posionous cell wall material
-
Glycocalyx:
- -is a capsule or silver layer
- -slimy secretion of cell membrane
- -located ext. to the cell wall
-
the thickness of Glycocalyx:
- it varies on the enviormental conditions
- (98%, H2O and 2% polysacch or polypeptide)
-
Strptococcus pneumonia is caused by:
Pneumovax
-
Streptococcus pneumonia has __ strains?
75 different strains
-
Pasteurization:
milk kills bacteria and pathogens which the bacteria causes the milk to become "ropy"
-
Biofilms:
- the glue of life
- ex. (build up on the toliet bowl, or shower, algae on the sides of the swiming pool and plaque on your teeth)
-
Genome:
eukaryotic cell "true nucleus" 3-700x more that bacteria.
-
Chromosome shapes are:
circular
-
Nucleoid:
mass of DNA molecules/"naked DNA"
-
during___the___is arranged into multiple chromosomes (liner)
mitosis, DNA
-
what are the 3 types of plasmid transfer:
- 1. conjunction
- 2. tranformation
- 3.transduction
-
Conjunction:
needs (pili) to attatch species and the formation of a bridge to transport DNA
-
Transformation:
eats the host, (hazard) not as controlled
-
-
Ex. of new phenotype:
"recombinant bacteria": (recombination of genetic material)
-
New Phenotype:
- -antibiotic resistant strains of bacteria
- -species which produce useful products/service.
-
what is signficant about ribosomes:
function is proteinsynthys, site of protein molecules
