Fungi, Bacteria, Virus, Protist

QuestionAnswer
What is a virus? a biological particle or pathogen
What does the name virus come from? Latin for poison
Who found the first virus? Wendell Stanley
How? He was studying TMV
What is the structure of a virus? has a DNA or RNA core surrounded by a capsid. Some have an envelope with spikes.
What are the tree shapes of viruses? rod, spherical, polyhedral
What two things to viruses not have? cell organelles and metabolic reactoins
How do they reproduce? only inside a host cell
How are viruses classified? by nucleic acid and shape
What are the different sizes of viruses? 17 nm-100 nm
What is an example of host specific viruses? bacteriophage--only infect bacteria
Are viruses living or nonliving? nonliving--no cell organelles, no metabolic reactions, reproduce only inside a host cell
Explain the lytic cycle virus takes over host cell, replicates, and destroys host cell
What are the steps of the lytic cycle? attachment, entry, replication, formation, assembly, lysis
What do viruses use of the host cell? nucleotides, ribosomes, tRNA, and AA
What does virulent mean? short incubation time, lytic cycle only
What is the lysogenic cycle? virus invades cell and becomes part of DNA
Step? attachment, entry, intergration, virus DNA open and join forming a provirus, cell division, 2 host cells with provirus
What can a provirus do? change phenotype of host, prevent other viruses from entering host, pull out of host DNA and enter lytic cycle
What is a temperate virus? Long incubation period, lysogenic only
What are the steps of the RNA lytic cycle? attachment, entry, replication of viral RNA, formation, lysis
Steps of lysogenic RNA? inject viral RNA, makes DNA copy using reverse transcriptase, replicates and enters host DNA to become a provirus?
What is reverse transcriptase? an enzyme used by viral RNA to make a DNA copy
What is a retrovirus? RNA viruses that go through the lysogenic cycle
What is a vaccine? an injection of weakened or killed viruses
Who developed the first vaccine, for what? Jonas Salk, polio
Also know measles, smallpox
What are bacteria? unicellular prokaryotes
What are the 2 domains? archaea and bacteria
Where is archaea found? marshes, swamp, hot sulfur, springs, etc.
Where is bacteria found? any habitat
What are characteristics of archaebacteria? cell walls without peptidoglycan, auto/hetero, anaerobic, harsh and intense environments
Characteristics of eubacteria? cell walls with peptidoglycan, auto/hetero, free living or parasites
Examples for eubacteria? E. coli, strep, anabaena
Name the cell parts of a bacteria. cell wall, nucelic acid, capsule, flagella, pili, ribosomes, plasmid
What is an endospore? tough protein coat formed inside cell to survive harsh conditions
What are bacteria classified according to? shape, arrangement, staining property
What are three shapes of bacteria? spherical (coccus), rod (bacillus), spiral (spirillum)
What are arrangements of bacteria? diplo, staphlo, strepto
What does gram stain + mean? thin layer of peptidoglycan, pink
What does gram stain - mean? thick layer of peptidoglycan, purple
What are forms of nutrition? heterotrophs/parasitic, saprophytic, photosynthetic autotrophs, chemosynthetic autotrophs
What are forms of respiration? obligate aerobes, obligate anaerobes, facultative anaerobes
What are forms of reproduction? bianry fission, conjugation, sexual reproduction
What is binary fission? split in two--like mitosis
What is conjugation? transfer to an acceptor bacteria through a small bridge
What role do spores play? buds form and produce new cells, spores can survive before hatching
Advantages of bacteria? human intestine, food production, culturation, decomposers, nitrogen fixation, producers
Disadvantages of bacteria? produce toxins
What is an endotoxin? toxic substance bound to cell wall?
What is an exotoxin secreted substance toxic
What are antibiotics? medication used to help kill or assist immune system in destruction of bacteria
What are hyphae? filaments making up a fungus
What are mycelium mass of tangled hyphae, most enbedded in soil or tissue
What is a fruiting body? reproductive structure ex mushroom cap
What are spores reproductive structure located at tips of hyphae
What are forms of reproduction for fungi? fragmentation, budding, spores, asexual, sexual
What are zygomycota example? bread mold
Feeding? saprobes
Reproduction? sex/asex
Form of reproduction? form zygote hypae which fuse
Basidiomycota? mushrooms or puffballs
Feeding? saprobes
Reproduction? sex/asex
Form of ^ basidia produce spoes
Uses? Can be eaten
Ascomycota? yeast, mildew, mold
Feeding? heterotrpohic parasites
reproduction? sex/asex
Form of reproduction? ascus produce spores
uses? brewing, baking
Deutromycota? penicillin, athletes foot, ringworm
Reproduction? asex
Other names? imperfect fungi
Uses? soy sauce and blue cheese
What is a saprobe? one that feeds on dead matter and tissue
What is a lichen? a two part organism in a mutualistic relationship
What is the symbiotic relationship in lichen? fungus provides protects and gets nourishment, bacteria provides nourishment and receives protection
Uses of lichen? food and breaks through rocks with acid
What is mycorrizhe? plants and fungi in a mutualistic relationship.
How? fungi get nutrients from plants, plants get surface area from fungi.
Good things about fungi? decmposers, medicines, food, habitat diversity
