| Binary- Fission- | Two Splitting |
| Binary fission- | Binary fission is splitting into two-ie- mitosis |
| 3 conditions bacteria need to reproduce- | Warmth(37 degrees) moisture, foodsource and space |
| Describe how bacteria can cause food poisoning- | Bacteria reproduce on food if conditions allow growth, bacteria release toxins onto the food which can be poisonous to humans, making them sick. |
| Explain how fungi feed- | -Feed by extra cellular digestion -Enzymes released outside the hyphae -Food broken down into monomers -Monomers produced travel from a region of high concentration into the hyphae where they are in short supply as they are being used to respire. |
| Explain how the life process of a micro organism used in making food- | Respiration is the burning of nutrients, glucose+oxygen=carbon dioxide+water aerobic. In anaerobic respiration lactic acid is made creating acid taste in cheese.Excretion is the removal of metabolic wastes, includes respiration and undigested waste |
| " " | eg-broken down proteins such as amino acids glycerol [oil] and urea [nitrogen] |
