Unit 5 bacteria

atypical bacteria, fungi, asexual reproduction

QuestionAnswer
Atypical bacteria Mycoplasma pneumonia, Richsettia Rickittii, chlymydia trachomatis
Mycoplasma pneumonia No cell wall and is gram negative
Mycoplasma pneumonia treatment Treat with dioicycline
Why is mycoplasma pneumonia atypical because it does not have a cell wall. The cell wall gives organisms its shape and ridgity. This organism is "L" shaped.
Ricksettia Rickittii discovered Rocky Mountain spotted fevver-dog ticks, first discovered in a lab in the Rocky mountains.
Ricksettia Rickittii is from an oblonggotic intracellular parasite-
Oblonggotic intracellular parasite must lie inside host cell, cell will be a brain cell
Why is Ricksettia Rickittii atypical The cell will be a brain cell.
Ricksettia Rickittii treatment Treat with IV antibotics, prognosis is better if caught early. Onset of bacteria is 72 hours, in 14 days a rash will appear.
Chlamydia trachomatis STD Chlamydia, Gram negative rod, causes blindness
Chlamydia trachomatis treatment Treat with Dioicycline, onset of infection is 24-48 hours with clear discharge
Chlamydia trachomatis causes of blindness Oblonggotic intracellular parasite, totatlly dependent on host cell, does not divide by inary fusion
Elementary body smaller and infects the body
Reticulate body smaller body transforms into this, and this is responsible for cellular division.
Fungi Dermatophytoses, no choloraphyl and is a eukaryotic cell.
Fungus is a Thallus plant devoid of chloraphyl, no roots, no stems, no leaves
Examples of fungi Mushroom, yeast, mold
Mushroom Is perfect, produce sexually, medically used as a hallucangentic
Yeast Imperfect, no sexual means of repoduction, so it is asexual reproductions
Mold Imperfect qualities, hyphae and mycelium
Hyphae long hais that grow on food
mycelium large gathering of hyphae
Types of asexual reproduction Spores-Arthrospores, sporoangiospore, chyamydiospore, conidiospore, and blastospore
Arthrospores break at joint, fungal spore formed by the breaing and fragmentation of hypae
Sporangiospore a spore produced inside a closed structure, potato going bad
Chlyamydiospore structure for the preservation of genetic material during adverse times. Has thick wall......
Conidiospore born unprotected, green color comes from pigmentation, ex. bread mold
Blastospore produced by budding spores, ex. yeast
Protozoa A group of single celled eudaryotic organisms with NO CELL WALL. Animal-no cell wall and plants-cell wall
Protozoa classified by means of motility
Protozoa means of motility Ameoba-sarcodina, flagelates-mastogophora, ciliztes-ciliata, non motile-sporozoa
Protozoa forms Trophoziote, cyst
Protozoa cyst has no motility, no pseudopods with thick cell wall
Helminth Parasite Nematode-is sexual, trematode-has both sexes, cestode-has both sexes
Nematode Differs in size and is sexual, round worms (elongated). As small as microscopic in blood or large as earthworms, is sexual-either male (shorter) or female (longest)
Trematode Fluke, organ specific, is a hermaphrodite-has both sexes (single worms becomes mulit worm infestation), motility-falling leaf movement, attachments-lateral sucker and dorsal sucker, get from contaminated food or water
Cestode segmented worm, each proglottid contains both male and female sex, this is an egg productin machine, ex tape worm.
Viruses Either RNA or DNA, NEVER BOTH
Virion Simplest infectious particle, consisting of an outer portein shell called a capsid and an inner core of nucleic acid (either RNA OR DNA)
Virion shape Rod-shaped
Transcription making RNA out of DNA
lysogeny occurs in bacterial viruses
Prion Infectious protein particle, ex. mad cow disease
